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 1296

Panel 1
Bok, Zander, Alyss.
Bok: But what about the population decline?
Alyss: This was not a deliberate policy, but an unintended consequence of your system.
Alyss: Actually, it's a consequence of all advanced welfare-states.
Alyss: From cradle to grave, your rulers take care of all your needs.
Panel 2
Bok (smiling wryly), Zander (looking embarrassed), Alyss.
Bok: Well, except for sex.
Alyss: Indeed, but you have birth control, and guaranteed old-age care, while rejuvenation tech is denied to you.
Alyss: In my culture, there is no welfare-state. We tend to have lots of children, so we have a network of people we know we can rely on if we need help.
Panel 3
Diana, Bok, Zander, Alyss
Diana: How many children do you have?
Alyss: I have four sons and five daughters. Eighty-four grandchildren. Six hundred seventy-three great-grandchildren, and ...
Bok: Okay, okay, we get it. Should we call you 'Gran'ma Alyss?'
Alyss: No.
