Strip 229 -- First Seen: 2009-07-30
Escape From Terra is updated with new pages every Monday through Friday.

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.

Kickstarter successful and closed

The Kickstarter campaign for Not-Safe.Space Chapter 3 concluded successfully on April 21, and Scott extended the time allowed for late pledges until May 19.

Books have been ordered from the printer and Scott will be spending the next week or so setting up and sending the PDF files to those who asked for them.

(There are still six of you who have not responded to the survey asking for e-mail and snail-mail addresses, he'll do the best he can.)

Thanks to all for supporting this Kickstarter!

The Transcript For This Page

Panel 1
The brothers and Tobi at the table. Bert and Ernie on the left and Tobi on the right. Bert is leaning forward and talking

Bert: All that expense to develop these chimera foods and you're just going to give them away?

Tobi: Once they are ubiquitous, there is nothing any government can do to stop them from being grown.

Panel 2
Pulling in closer so now we just see Ernie and Tobi, who is waving one arm in a manner-of-fact gesture.
Tobi: A man whose family is starving isn't going to give a damn what the law says about what he may grow and eat.

Panel 3
Tobi leans back, clasps his hands behind his head with a look of satisfaction.

Tobi: Besides feeding the world, I have another disruptive technology in the works that will truly alter the course of history, forever.

Panel 4
Three-shot, the brothers look at one another skeptically as Tobi spreads his arms palms upward.

Tobi: Really!
