Strip 835 -- First Seen: 2011-11-29
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
Frank Martin and Babbette and Reggie in Frank's office. Time for Reggie to wax professorial.
Reggie: What you describe sounds like what the Kuna Indians in Panama faced in the 1920s.
Panel 2
Flash-back to a scene representing the Kuna Rebellion of 1925. A group of young Kuna men are pouncing on a smaller group of uniformed Panamanian policemen, doing considerable damage in close combat with long knives, clubs, and farm implements.
Reggie: In 1925 the Kunas went to war against Panama. They killed 20 cops sent to their lands by the central government.
Reggie: Google 'San Blas War' for the details.
Panel 3
Back to Frank's office. Reggie is still lecturing.
Reggie: The point is, they won.
Reggie: However, to secure the victory, they cut a face-saving deal with the Panamanian government.
