Strip 964 -- First Seen: 2012-05-28
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
Pilgrim storms down the tunnel, away from the offending billboard -- or that is, moves angrily in the .022g environment, using a hand-rail along the tunnel wall to pull himself along. His friend, Adi, struggles to keep up.
Adi: Uh, are there lawyers on Vesta?
Pilgrim: Of sorts, but never mind -- no defamation laws, blast it. But I shall issue a scathing press release.
Panel 2
Pilgrim and his friends pass by a trio of locals who have congregated in a tunnel grotto. Pilgrim is still fuming.
Pilgrim: Someone should tell Mister Kasteel about what happened to a little boy when he teased a big bad bear one time too many.
Panel 3
Hold shot on the trio of locals, looking sideways at Pilgrim and Adi, who have moved on.
Adi: Er, what happened?
Pilgrim: He -- well, it wasn't pleasant, let me tell you.
Panel 4
Smallish panel consisting entirely of the following caption:
Caption: After the play -- a smashing success -- everyone got back to the business of business.
