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!
Transcript For Strip 939
Panel 1Back in the hearing room. Angle view from behind Antigone and Johanna where we can see Murphy standing up and objecting again.
Murphy: Again may I ask what's the point of this?
Murphy: It's obviously a dramatization – there could not have been video recordings of all this.
Panel 2
Johanna and Antigone.
Johanna: I'll get to the point sooner if you'll stop interrupting me.
Antigone: Murphy's question is valid, Dr. Diamondi. All I can see is this building a case for mitigating circumstances against Farnsworth.
Panel 3
Medium close-up on Johanna.
Johanna: In the first place, this dramatization is drawn faithfully from Farnsworth's own statements to the police following the death of his family.
Johanna: In the second place, the later crimes of Farnsworth were so heinous that I felt it necessary to provide the context, and understanding of his motivations.
Johanna: And in the third place, I wanted to ask, here and now, that if the man now called Seamus O'Murchadha is NOT Theophilus Farnsworth ...
Panel 4
Pull back to show Johanna, Antigone, and Seamus. Seamus has his face buried in his hands.
Johanna: How else would one explain his reaction to this re-enactment of that fateful evening?
