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
The limo flies towards the main city.
Buford (from inside): So, what do we do now?
Nicole: We do what Seamus told us to do at breakfast ...
Panel 2
Flashback panel. Buford, Nicole, Seamus and Ventura at a breakfast table in the hotel restaurant. The first three have plates of food in front of them, Ventura has a small glass.
Seamus: Last night I looked into this Peng-Bo Shen character. He's as nasty as our friend Hanzo described him.
Nicole: Great.
Seamus: If we get separated, we can communicate via our Implants, but we'll need to be careful.
Panel 3
Nicole looks at Seamus.
Nicole: Careful? What do you mean?
Seamus: Somebody could be listening in.
Nicole: But we use an encrypted channel! State of the art!
Panel 4
Seamus leans back and chuckles, lays a fatherly hand on Nicole's shoulder. She looks back at him dubiously.
Seamus: My dear child, there is no such thing as encryption that can't be broken, if the snoop is sufficiently determined.
