Indiegogo Campaign Has Begun!
Second times a charm. The epic QUANTUM VIBE: This Means War story concludes with Part 3, and we require funds to publish a print volume. To sweeten the pot a bit, a 3 pack of the print and PDF copies of all three parts of the This Means War story is a new perk. The stickers and magnet add-ons for the Project for a Free Cosmos concept (explained in the story) are available. And one final incentive for the first 20 who get there first, an add-on for a Free Cosmos Project coaster (1 per perk).
The campaign starts today, Sunday, November 10th, and will conclude in 31 days.

The Transcript For This Page
Panel 1
The cab has made it though the turnpike and into the 'downtown' area, negotiating with the mutli-modal traffic. Leave space for logo.
Reggie: Yes, as our driver says, if they don't agree on the rules, they can't play.
Reggie: So it's in everyone's best interest to come up with reasonable rules and to abide by them.
Panel 2
They pass by Isher's gun shop and the boutique. Guy eyes it warily as they pass by.
Reggie: If they don't, everybody takes their hockey sticks and goes home.
Guy: Or, use them to beat you up if you break a rule.
Panel 3
Reggie and Guy in the backseat. Guy is sitting straight-backed, arms crossed, in a defiant pose.
Reggie: Only in the case of high-sticking, skate kicks and such. Did you see anybody beaten?
Guy: No! But that was just because nobody high-sticked anyone.
Panel 4
Same shot. Both men look at each other, as Guy begins to see the implications of his own words. He has that 'dawning of realization look' on his face, and his arms fall into his lap.
No dialog.
Panel 5
Three-shot of Reggie, Guy and Babbette in the cab. Guy is leaning back in his seat as casually as he can manage, trying to get control of the conversation.
Guy: Okay, your maj--
Guy (2): Okay, Reggie, I get it, but I think there's a big difference between voluntarily playing a game and living in a civilized social order.
Panel 6
The cab pulls up in front of the Water Bros. Boarding House etc. Large scene-setting panel.
Reggie: Is there really?
Reggie (2): Hey Guy, just give it a chance, then tell me what you think, okay?
