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 2241
Panel 1Diana is standing next to Lester's workstation, handing him a mug of a cold beverage. She holds its twin.
Diana: Happy Afternoon-Stretch, Lester. Care for a Bobebida?
Lester: Uh, sure, thanks.
Lester: Having trouble with a trace?
Panel 2
Diana leans against Lester's station in a pose that puts her on display for him. She has his attention.
Diana: It's Kornbluth's stolen werpolitzi. I've only been about to trace about a fifth of the shipment.
Diana: It's like the rest just scattered to the four winds … and most of them blow out of our 'Kim-Favreau' range.
Panel 3
Lester tries to make conversation.
Lester: Yeah, it's a challenge but, well, that means you need to develop relationships with some of the key grey-market operators.
Lester: It takes some time but I'm happy to, ah, show you the ropes.
Panel 4
Diana places a hand affectionately on Lester's shoulder. Not coming on too strong but definitedly making contact.
Diana: That will be great but time is something I really don't have with this case.
Diana: And you know, I'd really like to keep this job, considering how the economy's doing now.
Lester: Keep … this … huh?
