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

Strip 29

Panel 1
Back at Babbette’s counter, her granddaughter walks up to her holding the Continental note Guy had given her.

B the younger: What the slush am I supposed to do with this, Gramma?

B the elder: Mind your language, honey.

Panel 2
Babbette the elder leans on her counter to peer down at her granddaughter.

B the elder: Anyway, I need you to go round up up the Rev’rend and Sam and Davey and Neil and have them meet me in the poker room, right away.

B the elder (2): I’ll pay you point-2 gold gram.

Panel 3
Looking over the elder’s shoulder at the younger Babbette. She’s in horse-trader mode.

B the younger: Point-5 gold. And you owe me for bringing those two Terries here.

B the elder: Point-three-five, and the usual bounty for 'Shanghaiing' those two 'sailors' for the boarding house. And I’ll give you point-04 for the Continental. Final offer.


Panel 4.
Babbette the younger 'walks' away from the counter, holding the note in front of her with new-found interest. (We see her coming towards us in the foreground-right with her grandmother in the background watching her.)

B the younger: Okay, three-five on the round-up, but I think I’ll keep this note.

B the younger (2): It looks funny. I think I’ll get it laminated and add it to my collection of wierdities.
