Strip 667 -- First Seen: 2011-03-29
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
Small panel, all black.
No dialog.

Panel 2
Bigger panel. Now in the center of the black we see a very blurry oval of white.
Voice: Sov, are you awake?
Voice: How are you feeling?

Panel 3
Reggie is in a sort of hospital-style bed, the kind where the head is elevated a bit. Bed sheet is pulled up to his naked shoulders. Actually we only see Reggie in silhouette at this point. Looking across him and the bed we see a young, asiatic-type fellow in a technician's smock. Who now looks confused.
Reggie: I feel like a million bucks.
Tech: Beg pardon?
Reggie: Slang term. It means a million dollars.
Tech: Umm ...

Panel 4
Still-silhouetted Reggie and the tech, who now smiles with recognition.
Reggie: Like a lot of gold.
Tech: Ah! I get it. Excellent!
