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.

The Transcript For This Page

Strip 32

Panel 1
Looking past G and F at B and E

Guy: Back on Terra, there is a great deal of confusion as to the nature of Ceres' government.

Ernie: It’s really quite simple.

Bert: Ceres is governed by a monarch.

Ernie: King Reginald the First.

Panel 2
Looking past B and E at G and F, both looking surprised.

Guy: A monarchy! In this day and age.

Fiorella: How, er, was this monarchy established?

Panel 3
G and F on the left, B and E on the right.

Bert: Well, this was a little before our time, but

Ernie: When the first settlers came to establish themselves on Ceres, they found Reginald already here.


Panel 4

Same shot. G and F are looking at each other.

Bert: He said ‘I’m Reginald, and I was here first.’

Ernie: So everyone called him Reginald the First, and he’s been King ever since.
