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.
Not-Safe.Space Kickstarter! [ Mar 9, 2026 ]
UPDATE to the UPDATE: The problem has been solved, all rewards are now available. I've extended the campaign an extra day, to April 21. Thanks for bearing with me!
UPDATE: There has been some strange glitch in the Kickstarter launch, so Scott is cancelling the campaign temporarily and will re-start as soon the cause of the problem can be determined and corrected.
Scott is gearing-up for his third Not-Safe.Space Kickstarter campaign!
(Not-Safe.Space is Scott's sexy spin-off of QUANTUM VIBE.)
For those of you who haven't signed up for one of the NSFW Patreon tiers, this will be the best way to get in on the action for a very reasonable price.
Go to THIS link. The campaign starts March 16 and runs through April 20.
Panel 1
Murphy presses on with her objections.
Murphy: Agent Stone, I submit that this hearing has been turned into an ambush by the accuser.
Murphy: Dr. O'Murchadha has recently suffered the most vile betrayal by his ex-fiancee, and may be suffering from Keiuro-Tayler Syndrome due to being severed from his connection to the Network.
Murphy: I ask for immediate dismissal from this circus.
Panel 2
Medium shot of Antigone, looking a bit irritated.
Antigone: I must remind you, advocate, that in the first place this is a hearing, not a trial.
Antigone: In the second place, I am a trained adjudicator and quite capable of setting aside my emotional responses in the course of rendering a decision.
Antigone: And in the third place, your use of the term 'circus' here is insulting. Cut it out.
Panel 3
Johanna and Antigone. Johanna looks like she's won a march but her victory is short-lived.
Johanna: Thank you, Agent Stone.
Antigone: The advocate has a point – you did attempt to ambush the defendant.
Antigone: That is improper and I may well entertain a motion for dismissal if I see another such attempt. Am I clear?
Panel 4
Johanna is only slightly chastened as she continues her presentation.
Johanna: Very clear, ma'am.
Johanna: Once the shock of the murders faded, Farnsworth became obsessed with finding meaning in this tragedy ...
Murphy (OP): I'd like to find meaning in your soliloquy.
