Strip 426 -- First Seen: 2010-04-26
Escape From Terra is updated with new pages every Monday through Friday.

Halfway there!

The Kickstarter campaign to print the next volume of Quantum Vibe: Novo Palermo - Part 1 is now halfway to our goal. We need your help getting the rest of the way there. Tell your friends, family members, and your pets to back our campaign.

Every little bit helps! The campaign ends midnight (US central time) November 18. So there's still time to get the word out, or maybe add another item to your current pledge.

Your reward for backing our campaign starts with a personalized signed copy of the perfect bound printed collection of the online strip. You may also choose the ebook edition, a PDF downloadable from DriveThruComics.

And back by popular demand, coasters, magnets and stickers. Click on the art on the left, to go to our campaign page where you can back our campaign.

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

Panel 1
Wide panel. Robyn, dressed in a prison jump-suit (baggy, il-fitting), and carrying a small bundle that includes a towel, two spare jumpsuits, underwear and some basic toiletries, is marched by a pair of female guards into what looks like a military barracks. Rows of bunk-beds with a pair of tall, narrow lockers between each. We see some other prisoners, all female here, giving her the look-over. They do not look friendly. She avoids looking at them.

Caption (Robyn): 'My first day, I felt like a piece of fresh meat.'

Panel 2
Robyn sits on the lower of an apparently-unoccupied bunk-bed, staring at the ground.

Caption (Robyn): 'I avoided all eye contact, hoping the others would just ignore me.'


Panel 3
Robyn is rudely knocked off the bunk by a larger girl.

Larger girl: This one's mine, Noob.

Larger girl: You take the upper.
