Strip 839 -- First Seen: 2011-12-05
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
In the bar, the patrons are chatting about the trial during the recess period. Pete and Naveed are still at their table, also chatting about the trial.
Pete: I think he'll let her skate.
Naveed: I doubt it. She will get a heavy judgment. She killed the man.
Panel 2
Closer two-shot of Pete and Naveed.
Pete: Except that he's NOT dead. And she helped get him into the auto-medic.
Naveed: Yes, fortunately they had that technological miracle close at hand.
Panel 3
Another two-shot of Pete and Naveed.
Pete: If it's technology, it ain't a miracle. It's science.
Naveed: Beside the point. She shot an innocent man in the back.
Another patron (OP): Hey, quiet everyone!
Panel 4
Now we see the comm screen, large in the panel, with one of the bar patrons visible at the bottom of the panel, pointing towards it. On the screen, we see Pablo walking towards his seat behind his desk.
Another patron: Rosenberg's back!
Pablo (from screen): Okay, it's showtime.
