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.
QV on a short break [ Jul 15, 2026 ]
QUANTUM VIVE is taking a break for a few weeks, as we prepare for Part 2 of the Novo Palermo story, and also for a Kickstarter campaign for Part 1, which will start in September.
In the meantime, Not-Safe.Space will continue, as a murder mystery begins and the relationship between Eithne and Diana develops in unexpected directions.
Not-Safe.Space is a NSFW strip but more than half the pages are SFW so I've set those to *not* require a Patreon membership. Readers should be able to follow the story without seeing the NSFW pages. If I've done this right.
Transcript For Strip 2003
Panel 1Montoya 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.
