To boldly go where no manic pixie dream girl has gone before.
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.
QV on a short break [ Jul 15, 2026 ]
QUANTUM VIVE is taking a break for a few weeks, as we prepare for Part 2 of the Novo Palermo story, and also for a Kickstarter campaign for Part 1, which will start in September.
In the meantime, Not-Safe.Space will continue, as a murder mystery begins and the relationship between Eithne and Diana develops in unexpected directions.
Not-Safe.Space is a NSFW strip but more than half the pages are SFW so I've set those to *not* require a Patreon membership. Readers should be able to follow the story without seeing the NSFW pages. If I've done this right.
Transcript For Strip 1523
Panel 1Murphy, Hugo and Eithne meet in a corridor. Hugo is in a variation of his usual attire. Murphy is looking corporate-professional. Eithne is wearing something an outfit at once glamorous, elegant, and revealing. With a fairly large and ornate necklace.
Murphy: I thought we'd agreed to 'dress to impress.'
Hugo: I always dress to impress.
Eithne: You didn't say what sort of impression we want to make. This is my 'Empress Gliceria' outfit.
Panel 2
Murphy, Hugo and Eithne entering one of the ship's 'hoppers.'
Murphy: You are certain the ship will be secure in our absence?
Hugo: I am certainly certain. The Oresme and Miyaki shields combined will thwart their transmat beams.
Eithne: I have sent another log-cock with the latest update. And we all have our micro-hoppers, uh, inserted, for just in case.
Panel 3
Inside the hopper (which looks like the inside of an elevator, but with a lot of 'round things'), the trio prepares for departure.
Murphy: You're certain we have the correct coordinates?
Hugo: Triple-checked. It's an open space near their central hall, and our hosts have cleared a 100-meter-square area for us.
Eithne: We don't want to make too dramatic an entrance.
Murphy: I think your outfit is more than dramatic enough.
