Quantum Vibe
A thousand years in the future, humanity has colonized worlds in nearly
100 galaxies, thanks to Quantum Vibremonic technologies developed five
centuries earlier. Other new technologies have created various
off-shoots of humanity and extended life expectancies five-fold. The
story begins with how a mad scientist and his plucky assistant, along
with their robot friend, brought humanity to the stars, and continues
with the adventures of some unique people in fantastic places.

Panel 1
Nicole leaping away from us across the room towards her handbag, forsaking the bedclothes.
Caption: To those who live in pressurized enclosures, getting 'vacuumed' means something less mundane than it would to any Terran, Loonie or Martian.
Panel 2
In a near-panic, Nicole is rummaging through her hand-bag, trying to find something in the bottom. In the background, we can see the door to her room.
Caption: To combat infestations of tiny parasites, habitation sections in space or on airless planetoids can periodically be relieved of their air. They are 'vacuumed.'
Panel 3
Nicole pulls her Bubb, in its little-ball form, triumphantly out of her bag just as the door to her room opens.
Caption: The process is generally more effective, particularly against bed-bugs, when done rapidly.
Panel 4
The Bubb expands to surround Nicole just as the rushing air carries her (and other objects) towards the door.
Caption: Usually, non-pest occupants are evacuated first.
