Strip 749 -- First Seen: 2011-07-19
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
Tall panel. Reggie and Babbette, with their luggage (3 large suitcases and one small one, stacked up on some sort of wheeled handcart) standing in front of the Venusville Hilliott hotel, looking around them. The hotel facade is fairly perfunctory, not at all glitzy.
Babbette: Not exactly a tourist destination.
Reggie: It's really more of a research center. Planetary scientists dominate the population.

Panel 2
At the hotel's check-in desk. As Reggie deals with the clerk, Babbette looks around with a desultory expression.
Babbette: I see. No fancy sex shows or insane roller-coasters?
Reggie: Not that I'm aware of.

Panel 3
Babbette and Reggie are walking towards the elevators, their luggage cart following them under its own power. Reggie casts a mildly scolding smirk at Babbette, who just grins back at him mischievously.
Babbette: Then our room better have a big, sturdy bed in it because we're going to be spending lots of time there.
