Indiegogo Campaign Has Begun!

Second times a charm. The epic QUANTUM VIBE: This Means War story concludes with Part 3, and we require funds to publish a print volume. To sweeten the pot a bit, a 3 pack of the print and PDF copies of all three parts of the This Means War story is a new perk. The stickers and magnet add-ons for the Project for a Free Cosmos concept (explained in the story) are available. And one final incentive for the first 20 who get there first, an add-on for a Free Cosmos Project coaster (1 per perk).

The campaign starts today, Sunday, November 10th, and will conclude in 31 days.

The Transcript For This Page

Panel 1
More or less a repeat of the last panel of strip 150: Robyn, wearing the clothes she has on at the beginning of her story arc, and with a rucksack slung over her shoulder, is walking along a pedestrian causeway. Unbeknownst to her, a shadowy figure is stalking her. (We don't want to see him too clearly as yet – keep him in silhouette/shadow, but he's about 185 cm tall and weighs about 80 kilograms or so. He wears a baseball/trucker's cap.)

Caption (Robyn): 'It was a bit of a hike into town from the spaceport but I didn't mind – after being cooped up in the slammer for six months and then two weeks in Bob Cat's spaceship, I was ready to stretch my legs.'

Panel 2
The Shadowy Figure is now right behind Robyn, and is clocking her from behind with a fist.

Caption: 'Unfortunately, I let my guard down, and someone jumped me.'

Panel 3
We're back in the Café, we're facing the wall with the girls in the booth, but we're pulled back enough that we see a sea of heads and shoulders of people who have gathered around to hear Robyn's story.
Babbette: Oh, no! That's the third time this decaday!
Emily: We've acquired a mugger recently …

Panel 4
At another booth across the room, we see Wally Cooper sitting alone, listening intently.

Emily (OP): … Somebody should do something about that guy.
