Strip 682 -- First Seen: 2011-04-19
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
Ed and Chang are confronted by Rhonda. Ed puts on a brave front.
Ed: Well Rhonda, it seems our people are getting along very well.
Ed: None of you... tourists, have experienced any problems, have you?

Panel 2
Rhonda leans a bit towards Ed, whispering at him with an oily smile.
Rhonda (whispers): No, but I believe Kate, a cute freckly little 'pre-majority Belter woman' – I think she's twelve – was leading some of my men on and then threatened them with a gun.

Panel 3
Looking from a bit behind and above Rhonda, we see the back of her head in the lower center, Ed and Chang both react in shock.
No dialog.

Panel 4
Two-shot of Rhonda and Ed. Ed is beside himself with rage. Rhonda smirks.
Ed: You are a psychopathic bitch!
Rhonda: Yeah, I get that a lot.
