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 1962
Panel 1Now the third goon is down but the other three are pinning her under a barrage of zinger fire.
Caption: Without the element of surprise, Wook was not as effective against the remaining three men.
Caption: Before long Wook's shield would run out of power.
SFX: ZING ZING ZING ZING ZING ZING
Panel 2
Diana uses her zringer to blast one of the three remaining goons.
Caption: However, I can be surprising too, once in a while.
SFX: ZING
Caption: I might have used a higher power-setting than I really needed to.
Panel 3
Wook takes advantage of Diana's distraction to fire her own zinger at one of the two goons still standing. The other one was taking aim at Diana but is now distracted, again.
Caption: Wook took advantage of the distraction I provided. Five goons down.
Panel 4
Wook and Diana both nail the final goon from different angles.
Caption: In hindsight I suppose if we'd given that last one a chance to surrender it would have been more humane. Or sporting. Or something.
