Strip 201 -- First Seen: 2009-06-22
Escape From Terra is updated with new pages every Monday through Friday.

QV on a short break

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.

Kickstarter successful and closed

The Kickstarter campaign for Not-Safe.Space Chapter 3 concluded successfully on April 21, and Scott extended the time allowed for late pledges until May 19.

Books have been ordered from the printer and Scott will be spending the next week or so setting up and sending the PDF files to those who asked for them.

(There are still six of you who have not responded to the survey asking for e-mail and snail-mail addresses, he'll do the best he can.)

Thanks to all for supporting this Kickstarter!

The Transcript For This Page

Panel 1
Distance shot of 'the berg,' streaking through the star-field. In front are Little Toot, looking like a bug valliantly pushing against the potato to slow its advance, and Drenkowski's fighter-ship, still backing in parallel with Toot. We might be able to see the camouflaged Stealth Ship nested in a crevasse on the side of the berg facing us.

Drenkowski (from his ship, filtered): Please patch your comm into your ship's computer, and we'll vector you and that big snowball into orbit around TLC.

Panel 2
In the Toot's pilot cabin, Bert is snapping his comm into a slot on his navigation console.

Drenkowski (filtered): The boss is anxious to meet you.

Panel 3
Ernie is looking past Bert towards the left viewport, but Drenkowski's ship is not there.

Ernie: Could you tell us who your boss is?

Bert: From the standpoint of physics, TLP doesn't make any sense. What's the story?

Panel 4
Drenkowski's fighter is arcing away from the Toot and its iceberg.

Drenkowski (filtered): All your questions will be answered in due time.
