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!
Panel 1
Cut to: A darkly-lit office. Mr. Graves, wearing his Bill Clinton face, is touching a finger to his left wrist. In front of him, atop a console, is a monitor screen on which we see the words: INCOMING CALL: ENCRYPTED: 'KING KONG'
No dialog.
Panel 2
Graves is now wearing his Poppy Bush face, and touching a button on the console. Now we see Mr. Kolk's face on the screen.
Kolk: Any results yet?
Graves: We've had a rather strange set-back. Our Judge Neopolitan had to bow out at the last minute.
Panel 3
In Koak's office, looking over his shoulder at Graves on his monitor screen.
Kolk: Who was her replacement?
Graves: The OTHER Neopolitan -- Antonio.
Kolk: Hall's balls! How can this get worse?
Panel 4
Again in Grave's office. We can see Kolk on the screen doing a face-palm.
Graves: Antonio gave Oresme a free tel call. She called Hari Copperton, of all people, and now her lawyer is George A. Ringo.
Kolk: Dammit, Graves, this operation of yours is going completely off the beams!
