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
Wide panel. Babbette and Reggie stand facing a large facade that looks like a fancy theme-park carnival-ride entrance, and in fact it is a carnival ride without the theme park. A large sign proclaims, 'The Martian Meteor! The tallest, longest and fastest roller-coaster in the known Universe!' A few other people mill about, a few walking into the entrance.
Babbette: We didn't have to do this right away, Reggie.
Reggie: Ah, but I insist.
Reggie (thought): Before I lose my nerve.
Panel 2
An attendant helps Reggie and Babbette strap into the front seat of a pressurized, streamlined capsule (or will be pressurized when the overhead transparent domes are closed). There are two rows of seats behind them with other passengers also strapping in.
Reggie: Are you sure you want the front car?
Babbette: This time I insist.
Panel 3
The domes closed, Babbette and Reggie prepare to commence the ride in different ways. Reggie, pale, and sweating, clutches the safety bar in front of them in a death-grip. Babbette grins broadly and holds her arms over her head in the classic “look Ma, no hands” pose.
Babbette: Let's go!
