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.

Scott's home and studio were without electric power for three days after the freak winter ice/snow storm hit Texas last week. That plus needing a day to recover and recuperate has eaten up his buffer of strips and put him a week behind schedule. We regret that a one-week pause in uploads is unfortunately necessary.
Panel 1
In Barbarossa's 'throneroom,' Barbarossa queries Zander ('Wildcard'), now with a water glass in hand.
Barbarossa: So, Wildcard, I am informed that you have mad skills with electronic hardware.
Zander: Um, yes, I guess so. I like to make things.
Zander: But you know, my name is really …
Barbarossa: HOLD!
Panel 2
Medium close-up on Barbarossa, wagging his finger.
Barbarossa: We do not use our slave-names here, Wildcard.
Barbarossa: That is one of the things the Central Intelligence uses to track and control us.
Barbarossa: We use only our Darknet names here, that we have chosen for ourselves.
Barbarossa: Do you understand?
Panel 3
Medium shot of Zander, and Lupin standing by.
Zander: Uh, yes, Barbarossa, I understand.
Zander: And thank you for taking me into your, um, domain.
Zander: In return, I will make things for you.
Barbarossa (OP): Yes, yes you will.
