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. We Won.

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 1803

Panel 1
Diana pauses a moment in the back office, she is still clearly in pain from the broken arm, grimacing, bent forward.

Caption: The pain was considerable. Kempadoo broke both my radius and ulna.
Caption: I had to stop a moment to catch my breath, gather my resolve.
Panel 2
Diana reacts to pounding on the locked door behind her.

Caption: For a moment I considered waiting for that crazy agent to calm down.
Caption: But then she started banging on the door.
Panel 3
The wall screen in front of Diana changes, forms a hexagon 1.5 meters across, within which we can see outside.
Caption: There was no 'back door,' or even a window, in the conventional sense.
Caption: But Juan was paranoid – or prescient – enough to install an emergency 'Murphy gate' in the rear wall-screen. I activated it with a code from my implant.
Panel 4
Slinging her flyer-case forward, Diana jumps through the gate.
Caption: I had … let's just say, safety concerns about that gate.
Caption: I'd never have used it except that the pain and fear of more pain combined thrust me forward.
