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
We are in the hearing room now, Pablo seated at his desk. We can see the backs of some of the audience's heads in the lower part of the panel.
Pablo: Before I get into my assessment, I'm going to read a quote by someone I have always liked.
Pablo: It's from George Polya, who was a professor of mathematics, but I think he would have made a great jurist.
Panel 2
Head-and-shoulders shot of Pablo in the lower left corner of the panel, to make room for large dialog balloons with the quote.
Pablo: 'Pedantry and mastery are opposite attitudes towards rules. To apply a rule to the letter, rigidly, unquestioningly, in cases where it fits and in cases where it does not fit, is pedantry.
Pablo 'To apply a rule with natural ease, with judgment, noticing the cases where it fits, and without ever letting the words of the rule obscure the purpose o the action or the opportunities of the situation, is mastery.'
Panel 3
Medium shot of Pablo at his desk.
Pablo: The Belt's case law is pretty clear on a matter like this: Emily must pay all of Anton's direct and indirect losses and expenses.

Panel 4
Waist-up shot of Emily, looking as if she's about to swoon.
Pablo (OP): If that takes fitting her with a track-and-disable collar while she works to pay off the debt, so be it.
