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

Strip 58

Panel 1
The game is over. Ice Hammers won 3-2. We’re looking at Guzman’s yacht from the outside, with the “viewing box” section leveling out and retracting back into the main body of the yacht. Let’s do this from a mostly fore-and-aft high angle so we can make this a tall panel, but the reader can clearly see what’s happening with the “box.”

Ernie (from inside the yacht): And our team racks up another win. But we’ve a ways to go up the ladder yet until we know if we’re in the championships.

Panel 2
Inside the “viewing box” which has now been transformed into a passenger cabin with Ernie piloting from a holographic control interface projected in front of him (ghost readouts, ghost joystick. Everyone has pivoted leftward so now Ernie is in the forward right position, B forward left, G and F in the rear.

Babbette: So how didja like your first Cererean hokey game, Agent Caillard?

Guy: The low-gravity aerio-batics give it a very different flavor from the game on Terra.

Guy (2): I must say that despite the brutishness I was very drawn in to the drama of the contest.

Panel 3
Outside view of Ernie’s yacht trundling towards a looping section of tunnel, built half into the side of a 4-meter tall ice cliff, with a dozen airlocks studded arouund. It looks a little bit like an airline terminal, with some of the locks having other yachts attached to them like airliners attached to air terminal boarding gates.

Guy (continues, from inside the yacht): And experiencing the drama in the company of friends adds a very pleasurable dimension to the experience.

Babbette: So you’re sayin’ you liked it?

Guy: Yes, Babbette, I liked it.
