Sci-Fi Adventure Monday & Thursday.
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 907
Panel 1Nicole jumps back in fright. Murphy smiles gently at her.
Nicole: MURPHY!!!
Nicole: You're … you're not … I mean ...
Panel 2
Nicole steps cautiously back towards the table, as Murphy, while not anything aside from her eyes and mouth, speaks to her.

Murphy: Although I'm not exactly the same me I was before.
Nicole: Huh?

Looking past Nicole at Murphy.
Murphy: My old brain was destroyed, as you probably know.

Seamus appears in an entryway.
Seamus: Someone who is very old, and has very important work to be done.
Nicole: Seamus!
Panel 5
Seamus, Murphy, Nicole. Murphy has not moved.
Seamus: I had been preparing it for emergency uploading, in case I suffer some mishap.
Seamus: But considering the service Murphy has done both of us, I reckoned she should have it instead.
Nicole: Why can't she move?
Panel 6
Same shot.

Murphy (to Seamus): I think I'm ready to try again.
Panel 7
Same shot, Seamus has moved his hand to the back of her head.
