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.
Transcript For Strip 2321
Panel 1A column of soldiers marches towards a displacer portal. Above them, the flying armored vehicles pop-out via their onboard displacers.
Caption: As foot-soldiers march through the captured displacer network towards their selected destinations, armored carriers pop towards the various spheres via their on-board displacers.
Panel 2
In a public concourse, soldiers pour in through a pair of portals, surprising the nearby citizens.
Caption: The foot-soldiers disperse through public portals in the various spheres.
Caption: The citizens gawk but don’t know how to respond at this point.
Panel 3
At a junction matrix, armored vehicles pop-in around the junction, blocking local craft seeking to pass through.
Caption: The junction matrices are not tied to the portal network, but as critical infrastructure, are quickly captured by invading ‘Snappers.’
Panel 4
Cut back to Mordy and Heidelberg at the Rainbow portal
Heidelberg: This could go a lot faster if we just used the portals to walk into the prime targets.
Mordy: Those network nodes are protected by coded lock-outs. We’ll have to take those places the hard way.
