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.
What Comes Next [ Mar 18, 2024 ]
The war is over, but This Means War has a ways to go. Novo Paolo/Bubbleopolis is still in a nebula/stellar nursery, no one knows what happened to the planet Sharen (center of the Intergalactic Council), and the status of the now-surrendered Invaders is yet to be resolved. What will they do when they learn their homeworld is basically destroyed? Will Alyss and Li be re-united? How about Diana (the real one) and Otto?
These questions will be resolved in the next few weeks, before This Means War part 3 wraps in late May.
After that, I plan to go BACK in time about 400 years, to when Alyss and Li left their home in the Sol System to colonize a new world on the far side of the galaxy. As one might expect, hijinks ensue. New subtitle yet to be determined, start date sometime in around the start of July. Stay tuned!
Transcript For Strip 1759
Panel 1Juan and Radoj
Juan: OK, now that the preliminaries are out of the way … what can you tell me about the Hayami murder that isn't in the reports?
Radoj: Quite a lot, I suspect. For example, did you know Hayami had been a member of Républicains Pour La Démocratie?
Panel 2
Juan is surprised.
Juan: What, those loons? Seriously?
Radoj: Very. It took a lot of digging. She quit a few cycles before signing up with her employer, Gianturco Garantia.
Juan: You'd think that would have raised some concerns with Gianturco.
Panel 3
Juan looks intrigued.
Radoj: It should have. At first I'd thought that she'd simply persuaded them that her past association was a youthful error and she had cut all ties.
Juan: I suppose that's plausible. Most of us are pretty stupid before age 40.
Radoj: But then I noticed that all of the clients Gianturco assigned her to were members of Mentes Libres.
Panel 4
Juan and Radoj.
Juan: That would never fly at Smith & Holder.
Radoj: I'm not so sure anymore, Juan.
Juan: Ha! Paranoid much?
Radoj: I may not be paranoid enough.
