Back The Campaign!

It's not too late. Plenty of time to back our campaign. Many perks available including an autographed print copy of Quantum Vibe: This Means War (Part 3).

Campaign ends December 10th. Click on this link or on the picture to back our campaign!

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
Continuing the discussion between Bert and Ed at the Chez Trief. Focus on Ed.
Ed: The UW is printing Continentals by the trillions to bail out the usual suspects.
Ed: They're getting some temporary relief, but that will just make things worse in the long run.

Panel 2
Medium close-up on Ed, waxing professorial.
Ed: They are squeezing the middle-class dry. Just ask Guy Caillard – he used to do the squeezing.
Ed: Anyway, that isn't enough.

Panel 3
Elevated shot of both men at the table, having their meal.
Ed: They have exacted more tribute from Luna – mostly in the form of Helium-3.
Ed: They are pushing Mercury for exotic, transuranium isotopes, etc.

Panel 4
View of Ed at the table where we can also see his foot tapping the stone tile floor.
Ed: And they haven't forgotten this juicy watermelon.
