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
Cut to just underneath the airskin. The Pale Man is pulling himself through the gash he has cut in the skin, fighting against the air pressure.

Put a little head-shot of Tobi in the upper left corner to indicate he's the one talking in the caption box.

Caption (Tobi): 'Okay, he's cut a hole in the skin big enough to lower himself through.'

Panel 2
The Pale Man is now a dozen meters below the air skin, drifting slowly downward. He has his hand-held maneuvering unit out, and firing it at an upward 30-degree angle (to both slow his orbital velocity and push himself a bit downward)

Caption: 'Now he's taken out a hand-held maneuvering unit and is firing it to move himself down towards the Little Prince.'

Panel 3
Cut to Bert, Ernie and Tobi at the patio table. Tobi is gazing at a slightly upward angle and looking a bit puzzled.

Tobi: Hmm. I don't see any signs of a parachute.

Panel 4
Two-shot of Bert and Ernie, both looking towards Tobi (who is not in this frame). The brothers are both looking somewhat alarmed.

Bert: Don't you get it?

Ernie: He doesn't know about the black hole …

Bert: … and the high surface gravity it generates!
