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.

Transcript For Strip 1226
Panel 1At the safehouse, whilst walking down a hallway carrying a box of parts, Zander notices an odor wafting from one of the other rooms.
Zander: {snif?}
Panel 2
Zander approaches a slender, 30ish man, Sargon, with a receding hairline and a 'lumberjack' beard, wearing an apron and stirring something in a big pot on a hot plate. Various jars and flasks are nearby, one suspended above a Bunsen burner. Looks a bit like Breaking Bad chemistry.
Zander: Uh, hey, is that what I think it is?
Sargon: Depends on what you think it is. I gather you're the new 'maker.'
Zander: Yeah, I'm, uh, Wildcard.
Panel 3
Sargon continues stirring the pot, while pouring a bit of powder into it.
Sargon: I'm Sargon. Sorry for not shaking hands, but I'm kind of occupied.
Zander: So, are you, uh, making 'tartar sauce?'
Sargon: Guilty as charged. Since you recognized the aroma, I take it you're a user?
Panel 4
Zander looks a little embarrassed. Sargon laughs.
Zander: Um, guilty as charged, I guess.
Zander: Did … did you invent tartar sauce?
Sargon: Ha-ha! Oh, Jacques, no. I'm merely a journeyman chemist, following a recipe provided to me.
Panel 5
Zander is emboldened enough to query further. Sargon delicately takes a sip from the large spoon he's been stirring with.
Zander: Uh, who did come up with this recipe?
Sargon: {Sssppp} So many questions. But I can't answer that one. I don't even know.
Sargon: The person who gave it to me was simply passing it along.
Panel 6
One more question.
Zander: Uh … is there any extra I could have?
Sargon: There might be, if you can repair one of my microwave ovens. I also cook meals for the house, you know.
Zander: I'll see what I can do.
