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
Looking past Seamus at Nicole, who is nevously sipping her drink.
Seamus: You were born 10.12.543 via osmotic cloning to Dr. Vanessa Oresme, the famous bio-chemist. She set her career aside for 15 years to personally raise you, after which you joined the Kaku Institute for your higher education and finishing.
Panel 2
Seamus looks idly at his drink while he continues.
Seamus: After graduation you fell in with a … musician by the name of Philbert G. Warren, and you took odd jobs to support you both while he … worked on developing his musical career.
Panel 3
Nicole is blushing while sipping her drink as Seamus continues.
Seamus: Two weeks ago Mr. Warren hooked up with Gilda Peshwar-Singh, daughter of mega-holo producer Damion Peshwar, and rather left you in the lurch, didn't he?
Panel 4
Two-shot of Seamus and Nicole. Seamus smiles at Nicole, who is doing a slow burn, not looking back at him.
Seamus: Have I got that right?
Nicole: No comment.
