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
Switch view to show the person at the other workstation. She's a stunning ginger red-head. Zander is in the background.
Ginger Red-head: Zan, don't forget your fee.
Zander (thoughtsend): We still need to discuss my fees, Diana.
Diana (thoughtsend): I can pay you a decimoe for the first part, the three names I gave you.
Panel 2
Back in cyberspace, Zander and Diana
Zander: 10 centis for each name I turn into a solid lead? That sounds reasonable.
Diana: Uh, I meant one for all three.
Zander: I can do that for you, but I want a full moebit for busting into the S&H employee database. In advance.
Panel 3
Another angle on Zander and Diana.
Diana: You drive a hard bargain, Zander. Deal. I'll send your payment immediately.
Zander: Thanks, Diana. Pleasure doing business. We should get together for lunch sometime.
Diana: If that girlfriend of yours lets you. Ha-ha! Later.
Panel 4
Ginger Red-head is now standing next to Zander in his work-chair, stroking his hair affectionately. Zander is stretching and smiling at Ginger.
Ginger: I'll bet you just took what she offered.
Zander: Yeah, but paid up front.
Zander: Also, if not for Diana, I'd have gotten lobotomized back on Zytemonde.
Ginger: All right, but what has she done for you lately?
