Creepy moves in darkness dares discovery.
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 2011
Panel 1At a lunch counter, Sergio, Diana, Dominic and Alyss (who is not eating).
Sergio: Jokes aside, if you can't explain how your gizmo works, you can't substantiate that you found the Château Périllieu with it.
Dominic: And if I do explain how it works, it will be all that much easier for them to find a way to defeat it if they try again.
Alyss: It's bad enough now that we're even talking openly about a way to defeat the Oresme Shield.
Panel 2
Another angle on the group.
Sergio: So we're damned if we do and damned if we don't?
Diana: You won't have to reveal your technology. Did you review the data I gave you this morning?
Alyss: I did, indeed. The look on deCastries' face when we show it will be a tasty pie.
Panel 3
Otto stands before the Arbs. Andrews is looking at a tablet.
Caption: The session resumes:
Arb Andrews: Otto Sullivan, according to your written testimony you were … following Senhora Martelli on the 18th of Octiary, when she met with Carmen Raynal at the Keaton Plaza. Is that correct?
Otto: Uh, yes, sir.
Arb Andrews: Do you know what they were saying to each other?
Panel 4
On Otto, looking a bit indignant.
Otto: Uh, no. I wasn't close enough to hear anything. I just watched from a distance.
Arb Sandini: Not a very effective spy, are you?
Otto: I was NOT spying on Diana, sir! I was only watching out for her. My cousin and I were concerned for her safety.
