Strip 557 -- First Seen: 2010-10-26
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
Medium close-up on Reggie. One arm is holding his blanket over his chest, the other is clasped over his eyes as he grimaces. Hangover bubbles still popping around his head.
Reggie: Unh …

Panel 2
Same shot. Reggie separates his fingers so that one eye peer through them.
Reggie: Babbette?

Panel 3
Switch angles so we're now looking at the foot of the bed. Babbette the Elder has pulled the covers off enough to reveal her head and bare shoulders.
Babbette: Yeah, and don't worry, I'm the old one.
Babbette: So you aren't a pedophile … at least not on my account.

Panel 4
Two-shot of Reggie and Babbette. They're both sitting up, facing each other. Reggie's end of the covers are covering his lower half; Babbette is holding her end up over her chest, as she smiles at him mischievously. Reggie is flushing with momentary embarrassment, holding a palm alongside his face. The hangover bubbles are still popping around his head.
Reggie: Well, uh, good.
