Strip 503 -- First Seen: 2010-08-11
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
Large panel. The brothers are turning their make-shift rock rocket by using their jetpacks. Ernie is gently pushing one side near one end, Bert pushing the other side near the opposite end. The goal is to spin the craft 180 degrees around its center of mass.
 
Bert: Easy does it.
Ernie: Okay, now we move around to opposite sides and slow the spin.
 
Panel 2
Medium shot of Ernie at his end of the mass driver, on the opposite side as before.
 
Ernie: Okay, just two quarter-second burns should do it ...

 
Panel 3
Ernie is back in the center-seat on the Mass Driver, reaching over to grab some rocks out of one of the hoppers. Bert is just getting there in his jet pack.
 
Ernie: Strap in and start load rocks.
Ernie: We've got a lot of momentum to kill before get to Dactyl.
