Strip 982 -- First Seen: 2012-06-21
Escape From Terra is updated with new pages every Monday through Friday.

Halfway there!

The Kickstarter campaign to print the next volume of Quantum Vibe: Novo Palermo - Part 1 is now halfway to our goal. We need your help getting the rest of the way there. Tell your friends, family members, and your pets to back our campaign.

Every little bit helps! The campaign ends midnight (US central time) November 18. So there's still time to get the word out, or maybe add another item to your current pledge.

Your reward for backing our campaign starts with a personalized signed copy of the perfect bound printed collection of the online strip. You may also choose the ebook edition, a PDF downloadable from DriveThruComics.

And back by popular demand, coasters, magnets and stickers. Click on the art on the left, to go to our campaign page where you can back our campaign.

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.

The Transcript For This Page

Panel 1
Large panel, illustrating Emily's grand procession.
Atop a pygmy mammoth—a meter and a half at the shoulder—rides Emily, dressed as a cartoon cave woman. She is flanked by Robyn and Libby each atop a miniature elephant—one African, one Asian. The girls wear what they considered to be culturally appropriate costumes. And on the head of each girl, rests a beautiful giant—half-meter leg spread—Mexican red-knee tarantula. The girls are waving.
Behind the girls come a dozen or more boys Emily had hired to lead in midget lions and tigers and bears. There is also a full-sized moa and various other mammals, birds and reptiles. The boys are dressed in safari jodhpurs and pith helmets. At the very end of the precession saunter Bob Katz and Jeff, the bobcat.
Crowd: Cheering noises.
Panel 2
Somebody's pet crow brakes free.
Panel 3
The crow dives for Jeff.
