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 386
Panel 1Same three-shot, Charles points the holo-distruptor at Seamus and Hari. Seamus looks unchanged (he's still wearing the bathrobe), Hari holds his hands folded over the top of his head as he reacts with alarm.
Charles: One way to find out.
Hari: What? Wait!
Panel 2
Same shot, now Hari lets his hands drop and we see that he had a holographic toupee covering pattern baldness. Seamus suppresses a chuckle.
Charles: Uh ...
Hari: Okay, it's me, alright? Turn that thing off!
Panel 3
Three-shot of Charles, Hari and Seamus. Charles has put the holo-disrupter away and Hari has a full head of hair again.
Charles: I'm sorry, Mr. Copperton, but ...
Seamus: Why don't you get that fixed for real, Hari?
Hari: I've been busy -- say, did you feel a draft just now?
Panel 4
The three of them look at the table where the android had been laying, and all that's left are the opened restraints.
Charles: Damn! Where'd he go?
Seamus: Hari Copperton, meet Harry Houdini.
Hari: Who-dini?
