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
Robyn again pushing on the hatch. This time she is making some headway.

Caption (Robyn): 'I tried closing the airlock hatch again. This time I had the air pressure helping me.'

Panel 2
Now Carla is also pushing on the hatch, and it slams shut.

Caption (Robyn): 'Finally ...'

Panel 3
The girls collapse to the ground, their backs to the closed hatch, breathing heavily.

Caption (Robyn): We collapsed, dazed and exhausted.

Panel 4
Closer two-shot of Robyn and Carla. Carla is still dazed, but Robyn is more alert and notices that other klaxons are still sounding.

SXF: (Multiple, smaller) BA-WOOP!

Caption (Robyn): 'I could hear several other klaxons, so it was clear that Norman's wasn't the only apartment that had blown out.'
