Strip 276 -- First Seen: 2009-10-05
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
Large square panel, exterior of the Array station house. The Transport which Reggie and Irina have been travelling in has snuggled up to one of the two transport airlocks, to one side. To the other side is another transport airlock to which is attached a smaller transport vehicle.

Reggie (from inside their transport): Someone else here?

Irina: No, is the Emergency Transport kept permanently here. Just in case.

Panel 2
Interior of the station house; Irina indicates a small console near the inner airlock. It includes something that looks like a 1970s-style telephone handset, with a curly cord attached, resting in a cradle.

Irina: Here is emergency comm intended only for real emergency. Just in case.


Panel 3
Two-shot of Reggie and Irina. Reggie is looking a bit uncomfortable. (He needs to go.) She grins wryly and points off-panel to the right.

Reggie: And, er, the toilet?

Irina: Accessed directly from sleeping room.

Irina: Just in case.
