Strip 776 -- First Seen: 2011-08-25
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
The scouts still gathered around Jim. His environment suit is completely removed, leaving him in a t-shirt and knee-length shorts. His shorts, the lower part of his shirt, and his legs are stained with filth. Right now, Jim is complaining to the group. Robyn is leaning forward at him, eyes narrowed and looking very serious, responding.
Jim: What a dirty trick! That was cruel!
Robyn: It was a joke, Jim. Why aren't you laughing?

Panel 2
Medium shot of Lili, with some of the scouts on either side of her. She's looking at Jim, who is out of panel.
Lili: Someone once said, 'The essence of humor is whose ox is being gored.'
Lili: Things are not nearly as funny when they are happening to you, are they, Jim?

Panel 3
Now Jim is complaining to management.
Jim: Sv Fong, how could you let them do this to me? You're supposed to protect us.

Panel 4
Side shot of Lili, taking in some more of the scouts gathered around. She is looking very ernest.
Lili: If I had known about this plot, I would have stopped it.
Lili: The girls realized that and sequestered me while they were 'executing' you.
