Back The Campaign!

It's not too late. Plenty of time to back our campaign. Many perks available including an autographed print copy of Quantum Vibe: This Means War (Part 3).

Campaign ends December 10th. Click on this link or on the picture to back our campaign!

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
Guy's office at the King's Court. Same description as before, except that he has added a few personal decorations near the desktop computer. Include a scale-model Eiffel Tower paperweight. Three or four framed photos on the wall, plus a placard reading “Chancellor of the Exchequer.” (We may not see all of this in the first panel.)

Reggie is standing next to Guy who is seated at his computer desk. Guy is looking down at the PDA on his wrist.

Reggie: Still have that United Worlds-issue PDA?

Reggie: Most immigrants ditch theirs and get Belter-made hardware.

Panel 2
Reggie and Guy.

Reggie: It's not chauvanism, mind you. Those UW-made Comms are made to be open to UW snooping. They're not secure.

Panel 3
Medium shot of Guy seated, contemplating his fancy wrist-PDA.
Guy: That may be, but this one also contains codes giving me access to UWRS channels. Should we need to parlez with the Terran government, this could be useful.

Panel 4
Reggie is turning to leave. Guy is returning his attention to the computer.

Reggie: In that case, go see Bert and get your PDA hacked to make it secure against UW snooping, all right?

Guy: Oui.
