Hu Iz Alyss Roaz?
Quantum Vibe
A thousand years in the future, humanity has colonized worlds in nearly 100 galaxies, thanks to Quantum Vibremonic technologies developed five centuries earlier. Other new technologies have created various off-shoots of humanity and extended life expectancies five-fold. The story begins with how a mad scientist and his plucky assistant, along with their robot friend, brought humanity to the stars, and continues with the adventures of some unique people in fantastic places.
Kickstarter Success! [ May 13, 2025 ]
The Not-Safe-Space 2 Kickstarter Campaign has ended successfully. Thanks to all who pledged!
Now we get to wait 2 weeks while Kickstarter transmits the funds, and Scott can order the books, and send surveys to backers to get current e-mail addresses for the .PDF versions and mailing addresses for the physical books.
All of this should show up in June.
Transcript For Strip 1301
Panel 1Monty and Alyss
Alyss: Just between you and I, well, I've been slipping-up a lot lately.
Monty: Your last rejuvenation was only 20 years ago.
Alyss: I know, and it's troubling.
Panel 2
Medium c/u on Alyss
Alyss: I did a full brain-scan five years ago, on my last break from the Venus 23 study.
Alyss: Everything looked fine … for a 525-year-old brain.
Alyss: Rejuvenation tech can replace every cell with a fresh copy, even in the brain.
Alyss: But there's something limiting about brain architecture itself. There are only so many connections that can be made, physically.
Panel 3
Monty and Alyss:
Monty: Are you thinking about going 'tin man?' A lot of people your age have.
Alyss: That's a step I'm not … prepared to make yet. I like being biological.
Monty: I don't miss having to use a toilet one damn bit.
