Strip 974 -- First Seen: 2012-06-11
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
Leon and Terry are in their quarters, arguing.
Caption: After the talks concluded ...
Terry: Leon, if you endangered innocent men, women and children with some sort of destructive devices...
Leon: Nukes.
Panel 2
Terry's eyes are full of ice and hurt.
Terry: Leon, that's monstrous!
Terry: I can't be with a man who would do something like that.
Panel 3
Leon softly addresses Terry's back, who is crossing her arms, hurt.
Leon: Something like, planting rumors about bootleg nukes being sold on the black market?
Leon: Something like hiring a few armored cars filled with uranium mining slag and old radium clock dials, to park in sensitive places and look threatening?
Panel 4
Terry slowly rotates back towards Leon.
Leon: Something like that?
Terry: Leon, did I ever tell you that you're my favorite Martian?
