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: Hari Copperton's office. George Ringo is seated in front of Hari's desk, Hari behind it. Hari's secretary is paging him.
Secretary (OP): Agent Stone is here to see you, Mr. Copperton.
Hari: Good! Send her right in.
Panel 2
Hari has walked around his desk and is shaking hands with Antigone Stone, the S&HR agent we met on Mercury. (Ref. strip 110)
Hari: Thank you for coming all this way, Agent Stone.
Stone: Well, since you paid for the high-speed transport from Mercury, it seemed the least I could do.
Panel 3
A second chair has extruded next to George's. Hari gestures for Stone to be seated. George half-rises out of his seat to greet the newcomer.
Hari: I don't think you've met George Ringo. Best defense attorney on Luna. George, this is S&HR Agent Antigone Stone.
George: Your reputation precedes you, Agent Stone.
Stone: As does yours, Mr. Ringo.
Panel 4
All three are now seated.
Hari: Agent Stone, you are already familiar with my friends Seamus O'Murchadha and Nicole Oresme, from the incident on Mercury.
Hari: Nicole is in a real jam, and I need ... SHE needs your help.
