Strip 979 -- First Seen: 2012-06-18
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
Emily is shaking hands with Sv. Katz. A bunch of boxes and cages and plants surround them in the background.
Emily: Welcome to FloraFauna, Sv. Katz. How was the flight?
Katz: The animals were in autosleep most of the time. So, none the worse for wear. Let's start bringing them up to full alert so they can get situated to their new home.
Panel 2
Sv. Katz turns to one of the boxes/cages as Emily stiffens. Jeff the bobcat is walking through the unloading port.
Emily: Oh my--I, I don't remember ordering a, uh, leopard...
Panel 3
Katz turns and pets Jeff calmly.
Katz: Oh, don't worry, that's just Jeff. He's a bobcat.
Katz: He's not part of your order, he's with me.
Panel 4
Close-up of Jeff as Katz and Emily speak off camera.
Emily: Is he your animal companion?
Katz: More like I'm his human companion.
