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 2100
Panel 1In the control room, Murphy and Hugo. He's focused on something in front of him we can't see, gesturing with his hands.
Murphy: You intend to get at the core that way?
Murphy: This thing is heavily magnetized, remember?
Murphy: The gravity-fields won't be able to pull your sample out.
Panel 2
Exterior view of Causa Sui firing a combination of a columnated gravity beam as before, with another beam cork-screwing around it.
Hugo (from cameo): You overlook the 'electro' part of 'electro-gravity.'
Hugo: I can mitigate the magnetic field with an electrostatic sheath.
Panel 3
Exterior view of a core sample being extracted from the missile via the combination of direct gravity-beam and corkscrewing EMF wave.
Hugo (OP): Once we can get the sample some distance away from its parent we can cut it up further and get a precise picture.
Panel 4
Inside the control room, Hugo is gesticulating and posing awkwardly as he manipulates the invisible interface. Murphy is grinning at him.
Murphy: You always impress me with your mad tai chi skills.
Hugo: Laugh if you want but doing this helps me focus on the actual control interface.
