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 90
Panel 1The Helio-Flyer and her escorts now flying in a wide pattern, each ship 50 meters distant from the next, all decelerating towards the camera.
Pilot #3 (Bo): And after my fourth wife split, I decided that I preferred living in the sky to doing the 'domestic bliss' thing, and since then I've been splitting time between Mercury and Huoxing, doing special runs as called upon.
Pilot #2: That was real exciting, Beauregard. You still awake, Nicole?
Panel 2
Reverse angle, now the ships are zooming by and we see Mercury from a high-lattitude angle, looming large in the background.
Nicole: That's affirmative, Gary
Pilot #2: Good, because we're coming up on descent-maneuvers time.
Panel 3
Medium close-up on cyber-Nicole. She looks exhausted but grimly determined. We can see one of the Sun-Shooter ships in the near background.
Pilot #1: Ya sure ya don't wanna link your control systems over?
Nicole: That's a negative, Jake.
Panel 4
Split into 3 sub-frames, with Nicole's dialog spread across the top of all three. In each frame from left-to-right are Pilot 1 (Jake), Pilot 2 (Gary), and Pilot 3 (Bo). They are all softly smiling in admiration for this brash kid.
Nicole: I am going to bring this hunka junk home all by my lonesome, so kindly stay out of my thrusters.
