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!
Panel 1
Diana flying through the gloomy city in her Jetsons flyer.
Caption: I was ready to go straight home and crash.
Caption: Oh, so ready.
Caption: But halfway there, the hairs on the back of my neck started to tingle.
Panel 2
Looking at a holoscreen projected form the dashboard, we see the traffic behind Diana. Including a dark, somewhat sinister-looking flyer.
Caption: A few seconds' looking at my rear camera revealed that yes, I was likely being followed.
Caption: Somewhat ineptly, if he didn't want to be noticed.
Caption: I figured I should lose him, somehow.
Panel 3
The holoscreen now shows a command menu. Angled so we see thru it in reverse, and Diana pointing at a highlighted link-icon.
Caption: I didn't really know how to fly. I relied on auto-pilot exclusively.
Caption: But the ever-thoughtful Monty had entered some evasive-maneuver programming.
Caption: I just had to tell my car what I wanted to avoid and ...
Panel 4
The flyer suddenly makes a high-speed 90-degree dive, alarming Diana.
Diana: Woah!!!
