Strip 211 -- First Seen: 2009-07-06
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!

Ernie (from inside car): How long has this project been going on?

Bert: Who is going to live in these homes?

Ernie: Why all the secrecy, anyway?

Panel 2
Inside the Rolls. The brothers are seated side-by side in the back bench-seat. We are looking forward past them, towards the front seat. On the left is Drenkowski, turned part way towards the brothers with his right arm resting on the seat-back. On the right side (this is a right-hand drive) we can see the steering wheel, a bit of the classic original instrumentation, and a high-techy looking box mounted on the dash board – the computer which is actually driving the vehicle.

Drenkowski: In due time, gentlemen, in due time.

Panel 3
Reverse view. Now we're looking from the front dash past Drenkowski at the brothers in the back seat, each gazing out the window on his own side, looking a bit put off. Drenkowski smiles his enigmatic smile.

The brothers: ….
