Strip 576 -- First Seen: 2010-11-22
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
End of long flash-back sequence, back in Reggie's bedroom with Reggie and Babbette sitting on Reggie's bed. She is snuggling up to Reggie and laying her head on his shoulder.
Babbette: I guess I shouldn't be surprised. The whole event had your flair for the dramatic.
Reggie: Are you making fun of me, woman?
Panel 2
Babbette sits up straight again so she can look Reggie in the eye. She also takes one of his hands in hers.
Babbette: Not at all, Reggie.
Babbette: I can't thank you enough for what you did for my granddaughter.
Panel 3
Medium close-up of Babbette, looking affectionately at Reggie.
Babbette: She's basically a good girl and clearly, her guilty conscience was eating away at her.
Babbette: You picked up on that, you dragged the details out of her and you gave her a clear path to expiate her guilt.
Panel 4
Two-shot of Reggie and Babbette, Babbette has a mischievous smile and her hand is wandering around
Reggie's torso. Reggie is smiling back.
Babbette: Whatever can I do to repay you?
Reggie: No alcohol this time – I want you and this time I want to remember.
