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
Ed and Chang still standing in front of the Hotel. Ed now has his arms spread wide in a cajoling manner, and pouring on his good-ol'-boy Texas charm. But Chang looks glum, as do the few of his soldiers we can see behind him.
Ed: Chang, I have no doubts about your loyalties, but you are a thinking man, prone to evaluating a situation before acting.
Panel 2
Medium close-up of Chang. Now he looks bitter.
Chang: For all the good it has done any of us!
Panel 3

Two-shot of Ed and Chang. Chang is showing a bit of realization in his face.
Ed: It has done us good, Chang.
Ed: Our people mixed and got to know each other as people, instead of labels.
Panel 4
Wider shot, taking in Ed, Chang, and the troops still standing behind him.
Ed: Look at your troops' faces now.
Ed: I see genuine sadness as your boys reluctantly shuffle back to enforced segregation, away from the fun and friendship in an exotic new world.
Panel 5
Medium shot of Ed, behind him in the distance we can see a dozen Belters standing in the distance behind him (none closer than about 12 meters)
Ed: Ditto for the Belters.
Ed: They got to meet new people in a small-town world where everyone knows everyone else.


Panel 6
Ed and Chang:
Ed: Can you imagine them willingly shooting their new friends?
Chang: Yes, I can. Reluctantly, but you are just as dead if you are shot reluctantly as if you were shot without qualms.
