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.
Kickstarter successful and closed [ May 19, 2026 ]
The Kickstarter campaign for Not-Safe.Space Chapter 3 concluded successfully on April 21, and Scott extended the time allowed for late pledges until May 19.
Books have been ordered from the printer and Scott will be spending the next week or so setting up and sending the PDF files to those who asked for them.
(There are still six of you who have not responded to the survey asking for e-mail and snail-mail addresses, he'll do the best he can.)
Thanks to all for supporting this Kickstarter!
Transcript For Strip 2089
Panel 1More chatter:
Jerome: Zytemonde? That's one of the so-called 'Venus Worlds,' isn't it?
Sargon: Venus 23, to be precise. But we were so completely isolated we didn't even know about that nomenclature.
Elric: We were told the Murphy Displacement Engine had been banned.
Panel 2
Jerome puts his foot in it.
Jerome: Still, as I understand it, the Venus worlds did away with market economies.
Jerome: No one has to work if they don't want to, and everyone is provided for.
Jerome: Sounds like paradise to me. Why did you leave?
Panel 3
Everyone at the table is looking at Jerome like he'd just grown a second head. (Except Bok, who already knows Jerome.)
Jerome: Um ….
Panel 4
Zander breaks the silence, and everyone except Jerome grins. Jerome just looks confused.
Zander: Because life in 'Paradise' is stupid and pointless. Not to mention, short.
