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.

Panel 1
Now the girls are approaching the Hotel cafe, bumping and grinding along. We can see about a dozen soldiers whooping and cheering.
Caption: The girls sauntered towards the staring soldiers who had joined in with Belters with their own cheers, whistles and bawdy catcalls.

Panel 2
Medium shot of Rhonda, among the soldiers, trying to bark out orders but being drowned out in the din.
Caption: Certain they would soon be under attack, Rhonda tried to order the men to be quiet and take defensive positions. But she was drowned out by the roar echoing across the domed plaza.
