Strip 413 -- First Seen: 2010-04-07
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
Medium shot of Arana Awatere, looking apologetic.

Arana: Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how did you like the play?

Panel 2
Looking past Arana at Doris and Fiorella, now dressed in their normal jumpsuits, who are chuckling at Arana's joke. The setting is the airlock just outside the Split-Tail's main hatch. The girls have both their rucksacks and some extra suitcases (containing the clothing shoes gifted to them earlier).

Arana: I wanted to see you off personally and apologize for our unforgivable security lapse. It won't happen again.


Panel 3
Side-view shot of Arana and the girls. Doris lays a reassuring hand on Arana's upper arm.

Doris: Hey, you live and learn.

Doris: Hell, it was even better than your rides.


Panel 4
Arana and the girls.

Doris: I will never forget the shock, awe and relief I felt as your swarm of 'non-lethal' bees took out the bad guys. Wow!
