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.
What Comes Next [ Mar 18, 2024 ]
The war is over, but This Means War has a ways to go. Novo Paolo/Bubbleopolis is still in a nebula/stellar nursery, no one knows what happened to the planet Sharen (center of the Intergalactic Council), and the status of the now-surrendered Invaders is yet to be resolved. What will they do when they learn their homeworld is basically destroyed? Will Alyss and Li be re-united? How about Diana (the real one) and Otto?
These questions will be resolved in the next few weeks, before This Means War part 3 wraps in late May.
After that, I plan to go BACK in time about 400 years, to when Alyss and Li left their home in the Sol System to colonize a new world on the far side of the galaxy. As one might expect, hijinks ensue. New subtitle yet to be determined, start date sometime in around the start of July. Stay tuned!

Bald Man: I hope it can keep up.
Panel 2
Up ahead, we see Zondra leading Albert and behind Albert, Orange Hair
Orange Hair (thought): If Albert's target looks back, she'll see both of us.
Orange Hair: This might screw things up for him. I have to be more discreet.
Panel 3A
Wide panel: Orange Hair shimmers and becomes Jesús Hernandez.
Orange Hair / Jesús: I guess a flying land-whale is the opposite of discreet.
Panel 3B
Jesús becomes nearly invisible;
Jesús: I hope this 'chameleon' holo works.
Panel 4
Suddenly Jesús is entangled in a flock of seagull-sized birds ('siegels') (feet not webbed, it hunts land critters) that has blundered into him.
Jesús: cào nǐ mā
