Back The Campaign!

It's not too late. Plenty of time to back our campaign. Many perks available including an autographed print copy of Quantum Vibe: This Means War (Part 3).

Campaign ends December 10th. Click on this link or on the picture to back our campaign!

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
Inside the now-familiar café, Guy is greeted by Babbette the Elder, who gives him a warm, matronly hug. Reggie stands close-by. The café is otherwise empty at the moment. (Babbette the Younger is out driving her cab.) Guy still carries the diplomatic valise.

Babbette: 'Bout time you came back.

Guy: I could not find omelets like you serve here anywhere on Terra.

Panel 2
Babbette smiles and gestures to the valise Guy is carrying.
Babbette: So what's this? I hope it's not your life savings.

Guy: This is just a diplomatic valise.

Panel 3
Three-shot with Babbette and Guy close in the frame, with Reggie farther away to the right, looking a bit embarrassed. Guy has pulled the Treaty papers out of the valise and is looking at them.

Guy: It carries the Treaty of Mutual Indifference, signed by Tanduk Timah himself, which I'm supposed to give to the King of Ceres.

Panel 4
Reggie rallies to his own defense – 3 shot with G and B but focus on him. B is holding the treaty papers, studying them thoughtfully.

Reggie: But as luck would have it our 'King' has not only abdicated but overthrown his own successors.
