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. We Won.

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 3
Nicole Avatar strides up the corridor, like she knows where she's going.
Nicole: Ventura, I am in you.
Ventura (Disembodied): That was old before Dr. O'Murchadha was born.
Nicole: Old, but pithy. Now, how about a path to your motor sequencing matrix?

Panel 4
The corridor abruptly ends, open to a large space of light-lines arrayed in all directions. In front of where the corridor floor ends is a floating platform with half-railing and a console.
Ventura: Path established.
Ventura: I'm still not sure this is a good idea.
Nicole: Think of it as an upgrade. Don't worry, I'm a professional.
