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 1
In the lower foreground, Munroe. In the background, a paparazzi shot of Seamus, waving away the camera, with Nicole and Murphy close-by.

Munroe: Flemming and Newsdon turned to the man some call the smartest in the system, Dr. Seamus O'Murchadha, who just happened to be on-world.

Panel 2
Michaels, behind her a graphic showing concentric circles in cross-hairs, with a question-mark in the center.
Michaels: Using an experimental technology t'e nature of which is being kept a trade secret, Dr. O'Murchadha was able to locate and track t'e deadly object, less t'an four days away from impact.
Michaels: To stop it, he broadcast t’e data to t’ose best-suited to handle t’e problem.

Panel 3
Behind Munroe, an image of the asteroid prospector Ian Ringwald, identified by a tagline. He wears goggles, has a neck-beard and is grinning.
Munroe: He alerted Skywatch, the prospector network, and within a day, the first prospector reached the planetoid and began diverting its course.
Munroe: The first rock-wrangler was joined by two others who slowed the massive planetoid into a parking orbit around Eunomia.
Panel 4
Michaels in front of a photo diagram with mug shots of Chelsea and Ed and the three rock-wranglers arrayed around the carbon planetoid, set against a background of gold coins.
Michaels: By Belt custom, ownership of the valuable planetoid is shared by the three prospectors plus Flemming and Newsdon, who are credited with its discovery by Dr. O'Murchadha.
