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.
QV on a short break [ Jul 15, 2026 ]
QUANTUM VIVE is taking a break for a few weeks, as we prepare for Part 2 of the Novo Palermo story, and also for a Kickstarter campaign for Part 1, which will start in September.
In the meantime, Not-Safe.Space will continue, as a murder mystery begins and the relationship between Eithne and Diana develops in unexpected directions.
Not-Safe.Space is a NSFW strip but more than half the pages are SFW so I've set those to *not* require a Patreon membership. Readers should be able to follow the story without seeing the NSFW pages. If I've done this right.

Panel 3
Now Alyss is conversing with Sergio Cooper, in the same manner.
Alyss: She could have picked up the name Diana, including Otto's, from a newstream but...
Alyss: The only way to prove whether or not it's our Diana is by getting a DNA sample.
Alyss: But we have to get it somehow without tipping-off Dr. Daskalov.
Panel 4
Now all of them: Lorelei, Alyss, Sergio, are sitting in Lorelei's living room with Otto. They've been bringing him up to speed.
Caption: Half an hour later:
Otto: So … this could really be her after all? That person I, uh, saw in the food court ...
Alyss: A sophisticated clone. But to prove it we need you to do something for us ...
