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 969
Panel 1Nicole and Murphy in their stateroom.
Nicole: I can't believe this. All this travel, all this work, and for nothing.
Murphy: Not quite nothing. Check your bank balance.
Panel 2
Nicole touches two fingers to her temple, and 'sees' her bank statement appearing before her.
Nicole: This is from over an hour ago, but …
Nicole: I don't believe it! I've been paid in full, PLUS a 50 percent bonus!
Nicole: But how?
Panel 3
Nicole listens as Murphy explains.
Murphy: Seamus deposited your payment last night, before Diamondi lowered the boom on him.
Murphy: I don't know if it was coincidence or he suspected something was up.
Murphy: Also, during the hearing I received some rather fabulous news, for me anyway.
Panel 4
Closeup on Murphy
Murphy: The attorney Seamus hired on Huoxing to get my inheritance back has reached a settlement with Tong Xie-Po and his thieving lawyer.
Murphy: So I now have, well, three-quarters of my inheritance restored, and Seamus has already transferred Master Po's shares in Project X to me.
Murphy: When we eventually get back to L-5 City I can set myself up in style.
