Strip 298 -- First Seen: 2009-11-04
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!

Exterior of the transport making its bumpy way across the black Martian ice. Let's make this a rear view of the transport so Irina is on the left

Irina: Yes, I – it was my ex-boyfriend. Only not like real. He had really large …

Reggie: Woah! I don't need the details. At least not that one.

Panel 2
Inside the cab, now Irina looks at Reggy with a wry expression.

Irina: I was going to say, 'ears.'

Irina: What were you thinking?

Panel 3
Reggie and Irina both share a laugh.

Reggie: Ha-ha! You got me. You're getting better at jokes.

Irina: I practice some.

Panel 4
Suddenly Fantasy Fiorella appears behind both of them. She's wearing the nightgown we first saw her in. Reggie is startled. Irina, who of course doesn't see the phantom, is oblivious.

Fiorella: Tell her the one about the Swedish student and the grass sandwich.
