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 dot Kickstarter [ May 6, 2024 ]
The big news this week is that Scott is preparing to launch a Kickstarter for his other comic, the very much NSFW Not-Safe.Space.
This over-sized (8.5 x 11-inch), 48 page book contains Chapter 1 of this naughty sci-fi spin-off, featuring Eithne Lamdagan, who happens to be Alyss Roaz' 7th-great granddaughter, in case you didn't know.
The story picks up roughly 2 years after QUANTUM VIBE: Assimulation left off, as Eithne and her K'Tagon boyfriend Ralff, wander through the Galaxy of the Gamer Godz, playing as the CUSH Queen, working to re-balance a real-life RPG that her travelling companion Hugo Galvez left in a bit of a mess.
Only instead of Eithne's CUSH turning people into techno-zombies, as the Godz originally intended, Eithne wants to make them techno-Succubi/Incubi, spreading what she calls an "Erogene" factor rendering them too busy making love, to make war. And of course, Eithne gets wrapped up in her work.
The campaign will start on May 14, and the link for the pre-launch page is here.
Panel 1
Inside the office of someone very powerful. Expensive yet tasteful décor, the owner's desk resides at the far end of the 20-meter-long room, in front of a large, sectioned, hemispherical window. We can barely make out the man seated at his desk. In the foreground left, a male secretary stands to address his boss.
Caption: In the city of Aldrinopolis, on Luna:
Secretary: Mr. Graves to see you, sir.
Man at desk: Send him in, then establish the null field.
Panel 2
View from behind the big chair behind the desk, looking across at Mr. Graves (still in Bushface), who addresses him respectfully.
Graves: It's been a while since you've called for me, Mr. Kolk.
Kolk: It's been a while since I've had need of your skills.
Panel 3
Medium shot/reveal of Mr. Kolk – a man apparently in his 40s, neatly groomed in his executive frock. He has narrow, piercing eyes set in a rectangular, Teutonic face, and sits with his fingertips pressed together.
Kolk: Or to be more accurate, since OmegaTek has had an opportunity as now presents itself.
Panel 4
View from a low angle beside/behind Graves, but we can still see Kolk's head over the desk ledge. A chair extrudes out of the floor positioned for him to sit in.
Kolk: Have a seat, Graves, while I brief you on the situation.
Graves: I can respect furniture that will rise to the occasion. Heh-heh.
