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.
Kickstarter successful and closed [ May 19, 2026 ]

Panel 1
Monty and Alyss
Alyss: Just between you and I, well, I've been slipping-up a lot lately.
Monty: Your last rejuvenation was only 20 years ago.
Alyss: I know, and it's troubling.
Panel 2
Medium c/u on Alyss
Alyss: I did a full brain-scan five years ago, on my last break from the Venus 23 study.
Alyss: Everything looked fine … for a 525-year-old brain.
Alyss: Rejuvenation tech can replace every cell with a fresh copy, even in the brain.
Alyss: But there's something limiting about brain architecture itself. There are only so many connections that can be made, physically.
Panel 3
Monty and Alyss:
Monty: Are you thinking about going 'tin man?' A lot of people your age have.
Alyss: That's a step I'm not … prepared to make yet. I like being biological.
Monty: I don't miss having to use a toilet one damn bit.
