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 2224
Panel 1The interview continues:
Falstaff: Concerning the business climate … how long do you think we can manage under the current rate of closures, before the city collapses?
Da Costa: 'Collapses?' You must be kidding.
Panel 2
Da Costa explains, an image of the original Sphere appears next to him:
Da Costa: When this city was founded, more than three centuries ago, there was just one sphere, and all of twenty thousand pioneers. I know because I was among them.
Da Costa: From that point, we grew.
Da Costa: We could do that again if we had to.
Panel 3
Medium 2-shot again.
Falstaff: So you're not worried about the consequences of this siege?
Da Costa: Of course I'm worried. I've personally lost 20 percent of my net worth, and I'll probably lose a lot more before this is over.
Panel 4
Falstaff and Da Costa. We're pulled back a bit to see the outside edges of the monitor again
Falstaff: Twenty percent?
Falstaff: What do you say to those who've lost their jobs?
Da Costa: See me after this is over and my partners and I will find a way to help them create their own jobs.
