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 2
Exterior of the Skydome Lounge, we are looking through the transparent dome (hemispheric, positioned on the side of the central passenger cylinder facing away from the thruster array, it's about 1/3 the diameter of the cylinder it sits on.
Harmon: Recent forays into the lower latitudes have turned up more complex life forms.
Harmon: Things that sort of swim.

Panel 3
Three-shot of Reggie, Babbette and Harmon, still at the restaurant table, now near to finishing their meals. Re-establish the scene. Harmon has their undivided attention.
Harmon: We hope something more animal or plant-like might be found nearer the equator.
Harmon: By the way, the DNA in the 'algae' is the same as Terran life and extinct Martian life.

Panel 4
Three-shot again of Harmon, Reggie, Babbette.
Harmon: It's the smoking gun confirming the theory of exogenesis ...
Reggie: Or panspermia …
