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
A futuristic small airplane – make it a twin-engine propeller craft, with a large transparent canopy over the main fuselage (giving it a futuristic look). It's actually a VTOL craft; have the engines mounted so that they are capable of rotating 90 degrees. Inside the canopy are seats for six, (three rows of two), and the first four are occupied by Nisa (in the pilot position), Bert in the co-pilot seat, Mac and Ernie behind them.
Nisa: There aren't many roads on The Little Prince yet, so this VTOL plane is the easiest way to give tours.
Panel 2
Closer in on the cockpit, the plane banks a bit so we can see a large section of landscape spread about 2500 feet below. It's hilly grassland, with a very narrow river meandering through.
Mac: We've already started bringing in water from the iceberg you brought us.
Mac: Eventually we'll have 30 square kilometers of lakes, 180 sq. km of salt-water ocean.
Panel 3
View from inside the cabin. We can see Bert and Nisa in the front but the focus is on Ernie and Mac behind them. Mac is reaching across to lay her hand on Ernie's which is on his arm-rest. Bert and Nisa are glancing back towards them, with knowing smiles.
Ernie: Hmmm. If my math's right, you won't be needing any more ice deliveries.
Mac: I'm sure we can think of another reason for you to visit again.
