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
Re-establish the scene on the patio. Bert and Ernie are now standing, with Mac next to Bert and Nisa next to Ernie. Tobi is still seated.

Tobi: I really hate to do this, but I need you to raise your hands and make no sudden movements as the girls remove your personal weapons.

Panel 2
Closer in on the brothers and the two women, as Mac removes Bert's gun from his belt-pack and Nisa removes Ernie's gun from his thigh rig.

Tobi (OP): I really, really apologize, but as they say in the intelligence business, 'there are no coincidences.'

Panel 3
Medium c/u on Tobi, looking dour.

Tobi: Only a handful of people know the location of The Little Prince, yet just when you two show up, so does someone who was evidently intent on killing me.

Panel 4
Medium c/u on Ernie, with Nisa standing nearby, looking wary. Ernie is holding up his hand, palm forward.
Ernie: Disarming free men is no small thing, but if I were in your shoes, I'd do likewise.
Ernie: At least until I found out what was going on.


Panel 5
Medium c/u on Bert, with Mac standing close by, looking wary.

Bert: It's obvious this assassin followed us here.

Bert (2): And if I had to guess, I'd say he's probably the one who killed your man, Smyth.

Panel 6
Medium shot of Tobi, looking downcast. A tear is falling down one cheek.

Tobi: I keep rolling it around in my head whether or not I am partially to blame for Alex's death.

Tobi (2): I mean, there have been previous death threats and even attempts.

Panel 7
In the foreground right, we see a mostly side-view of Tobi, tear continuing its fall down his cheek. In the background we can see the brothers and the women, looking sorry for him.

Tobi: Maybe I should have done more – should be doing more – to protect my people ...
