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 2003

Panel 1
Montoya in the left foreground, the deCastries table in the right background, where that group is making an effort to not look guilty.
Montoya: There are others involved who cannot testify at this hearing.
Montoya: Senhor Juan Gómez was kidnapped from his home and savagely tortured and beaten. He is expected to survive but his recovery will be a long and difficult ordeal.
Panel 2
Looking at the Roaz table, focusing on Diana, who is smouldering as she and Roaz side-eyes towards their opponents.
Montoya: At the same time Gómez was taken, Senhora Martelli's apartment was ransacked.
Montoya: Fortunately she wasn't home at the time, or else she might have suffered the same fate as her employer.
Panel 3
At this point the arbiters question Montoya.
Arb Andrews: Have you identified the party or parties who assaulted Gómez and hit Martelli's apartment?
Montoya: No … for reasons unknown, the security systems at both their residences failed, and so the intruders remain anonymous.
Panel 4
The arbiters seem surprised.
Arb Andrews: Security failed at both residences? They didn't even live in the same building.
Montoya: Quite a coincidence, is it not? And, Smith & Holder had the contract for both of those buildings.
Arb Santini: I would hate to be in charge of marketing for that outfit these days.
