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.

Transcript For Strip 2279
Panel 1The lights come on, the cameral pulls back and we can see the hand coming from the left belongs to Dr. Daskalov and the one coming from the right belongs to Alyss Roaz, who is still tightly gripping the doctor's hand. Alyss is reaching to grab the hypo with her free hand.
Daskalov: How dare you!!
Alyss: I'm pretty sure whatever you have in that hypo is NOT on her approved medication list.
Panel 2
Pull back to show several people: Sergio Cooper, Lorelei deCleyre, Otto Sullivan along with Alyss are crowded into the cubicle around Jane Doe's bed. Alyss is holding the hypo up in front of her, gazing intently at the loaded chamber. Daskalov is cornered, trying to stand her ground.
Daskalov: You … you don't know what's in that hypo. It's an endocrine-stabilizing agent ...
Alyss: Uh-huh. Right.
Alyss: Did you know that I'm a walking science lab?
Panel 3
Medium close-up of Alyss, peering at the hypo chamber.
Alyss: I see … polyethylene glycol, dimyristoyl glycerol, tromethamine, sodium acetate trihydrate, N-ditetradecylacetamide,1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine and … high-fructose corn syrup?
Alyss: Borlaug's Balls, this is Cytomax!
Panel 4
Otto is fairly screaming at Daskalov, bracing on the bed rail as if he's going to climb over it, startling all present.
Otto: HOW DARE WE?! HOW DARE YOU!!
Otto: Você é uma boceta total!
