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 dot Kickstarter [ May 6, 2024 ]
The big news this week is that Scott is preparing to launch a Kickstarter for his other comic, the very much NSFW Not-Safe.Space.
This over-sized (8.5 x 11-inch), 48 page book contains Chapter 1 of this naughty sci-fi spin-off, featuring Eithne Lamdagan, who happens to be Alyss Roaz' 7th-great granddaughter, in case you didn't know.
The story picks up roughly 2 years after QUANTUM VIBE: Assimulation left off, as Eithne and her K'Tagon boyfriend Ralff, wander through the Galaxy of the Gamer Godz, playing as the CUSH Queen, working to re-balance a real-life RPG that her travelling companion Hugo Galvez left in a bit of a mess.
Only instead of Eithne's CUSH turning people into techno-zombies, as the Godz originally intended, Eithne wants to make them techno-Succubi/Incubi, spreading what she calls an "Erogene" factor rendering them too busy making love, to make war. And of course, Eithne gets wrapped up in her work.
The campaign will start on May 14, and the link for the pre-launch page is here.
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.
