Strip 837 -- First Seen: 2011-12-01
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
Back in Frank's office, Frank and Reggie.
Reggie: You Southerners sound a lot like Belters, so I think you might get some help.
Reggie: Just two or three Belter mining ships in polar orbit, might keep the Northerners at bay.

Panel 2
Medium shot of Reggie, leaning back in his seat and clasping his hands behind his head, and smiling softly.
Reggie: Try not to kill the Hogs.
Reggie: Just bundle them up and offer to trade them for the Kuna Yala solution.
Reggie: And if they get fussy, cut off their lights. I assume you can do that, right?

Panel 3
Looking past Reggie and Babbette at Frank.
Frank: Sure.
Frank: These nobs are almost completely dependent on Southern technology to keep things running.

Panel 4
Medium shot of Frank behind his desk, a mischievous look on his face.
Frank: Another option would be to cut off their sewage.
