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.
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.
Transcript For Strip 2258
Panel 1Yeonmi and Daskalov are left in the ward, they walk towards another bed.
Yeonmi: I have only lived in this place for a year, and I don't understand ...
Yeonmi: … I thought the Beneficencias here cover health-care of indigents.
Daskalov: They do.
Panel 2
Another two-shot of Yeonmi and Daskalov
Yeonmi: Then why are the Lazarus Baths not available to them?
Daskalov: They would be, but we're in extraordinary circumstances, and baths are extraordinarily expensive to maintain and difficult to build correctly.
Daskalov: So, there's a waiting list.
Panel 3
Yeonmy and Daskalov are at another patient's bed.
Daskalov: Priority is given to those whose funding made those baths available in the first place.
Yeonmi: I suppose that sounds fair.
Daskalov: Eventually, when this crisis is over, we can take care of everybody.
Panel 4
Daskalov, Yeonmi.
Daskalov: Right now we make do with what we have available.
Yeonmi: I hope Otto can get over his shock. He seems like a nice man.
Daskalov: If he wants to be a healer he'll have to tone down the sensitivity.
