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
This time Diana is narrating in-story, from a cameo. She is with Alyss in Alyss's home museum. Alyss is looking up at that giant painting of her younger self with Murphy and Seamus.
Diana (cameo): Two days ago Alyss called me to her house for an urgent chat.
Diana (in panel): Hey, I hope this doesn't take long. I have an appointment to view apartments.
Panel 2
Medium 2-shot of Alyss and Diana. Alyss has turned to speak with Diana.
Alyss: I hope that won't be necessary. Monty would be so disappointed.
Diana: What? Why? How?
Alyss: I'm leaving the city, and Monty wants you to live here, in him.
Panel 3
Diana staggers a bit under the double-surprise.
Diana: You're leaving the city?
Diana: And what do you mean, live 'in' Monty?
Alyss: Monty isn't just a collection of avatars, he is the house. I've been his tenant.
Panel 4
Diana looks down to see Monty's Panda avatar proffering a silver platter upon which rests an electronic key atop a note reading, 'Welcome Home, Please.' The Panda has exceptionally puppy-dog type eyes.
Alyss (OP): It's a contractual relationship, like everything else here.
Alyss: No doubt the terms will be highly favorable, as I think he loves you.
Alyss: But make sure you understand it before you agree.
