Dark plans fall like thunderbolts.
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.
Not-Safe.Space Kickstarter! [ Mar 9, 2026 ]
UPDATE to the UPDATE: The problem has been solved, all rewards are now available. I've extended the campaign an extra day, to April 21. Thanks for bearing with me!
UPDATE: There has been some strange glitch in the Kickstarter launch, so Scott is cancelling the campaign temporarily and will re-start as soon the cause of the problem can be determined and corrected.
Scott is gearing-up for his third Not-Safe.Space Kickstarter campaign!
(Not-Safe.Space is Scott's sexy spin-off of QUANTUM VIBE.)
For those of you who haven't signed up for one of the NSFW Patreon tiers, this will be the best way to get in on the action for a very reasonable price.
Go to THIS link. The campaign starts March 16 and runs through April 20.
Transcript For Strip 2031
Panel 1Establishing shot of one of the permimeter defense stations mentioned in strip 006. A small spacecraft is parked nearby, and a suited figure is emerging.
Caption: Perimeter Station PS-187 resides in a gravitationally-stable 'Lagrange-point' within the five-star system that is home to Bubbleopolis.
Caption: The city itself, 43 million kilometers away, appears as a tiny white dot indistinguishable in the stellar background.
Panel 2
Close-up on the suited figure. We can see the face of a woman in the helmet.
Caption: The stations require regular servicing and inspection by a team of technicians.
Caption: So, this visit is not so unusual except that it is off-schedule.
Panel 3
Cut to: a bedroom scene. We see the same woman – Zondra -- carefully climbing out of bed, where a man we can recognize as Alec Stern from strip 002 lies sleeping.
Caption: 05 Septiary 1076:
Caption: The technicians know the codes required to access the stations, and work on them.
Caption: Needless to say, such information must not fall into the wrong hands.
Panel 4
The woman is in another darkened room, examining a small hand-held device resembling a smart-phone.
Caption: As those stations are vital to the city's security, these technicians are carefully vetted.
Caption: Their lovers, not so much.
