Strip 452 -- First Seen: 2010-06-01
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
Robyn again pushing on the hatch. This time she is making some headway.

Caption (Robyn): 'I tried closing the airlock hatch again. This time I had the air pressure helping me.'

Panel 2
Now Carla is also pushing on the hatch, and it slams shut.

Caption (Robyn): 'Finally ...'

Panel 3
The girls collapse to the ground, their backs to the closed hatch, breathing heavily.

Caption (Robyn): We collapsed, dazed and exhausted.

Panel 4
Closer two-shot of Robyn and Carla. Carla is still dazed, but Robyn is more alert and notices that other klaxons are still sounding.

SXF: (Multiple, smaller) BA-WOOP!

Caption (Robyn): 'I could hear several other klaxons, so it was clear that Norman's wasn't the only apartment that had blown out.'
