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.
Goal Reached! [ Dec 11, 2024 ]
We reached our goal and then some. We want to thank all of our backers for helping us reach and surpass our goal. We also want to take this time to thank everyone who has contributed to supporting our strip by buying our books and reading the strip regularly so we can earn a little advertising revenue.
Because we set this up as a flexible campaign, anyone wanting to back this campaign and get a perk can do so through this Friday. For those of you still interested in backing our campaign, click on this link or on the picture to visit our campaign!
Panel 1
Still in the corridor, Eithne fesses up.
Eithne: Oh, all right, I confess: I want to go with you guys!
Eithne: I want to explore strange, new galaxies! Seek out ...
Hugo: Out of the question.
Panel 2
Eithne starts tearing up, Hugo rolls his eyes, as Murphy smiles knowingly.
Hugo: Oh, very well, You may accompany us on our shake-down cruise.
Hugo: But when we depart for Galaxy S257163185, you can take the transport you arrived in and return to Gabriola.
Hugo: Please extend our regards to your grandmother.
Panel 3
They continue along a corridor.
Eithne: But, why can't I go to Galaxy, uh, S257163185?
Murphy: It's dangerous. Hugo and I have survived, collectively, 1500 years of wars, adventure, and disasters.
Hugh: Until very recently, apparently.
Panel 4
Murphy gently places her palms along the sides of Eithne's face. Eithne is having none of it.
Murphy: We're experienced adventurers, honey.
Murphy: Even though you are quite brilliant, you're inexperienced, and as a bio-person, all too vulnerable.
Eithne: Don't baby me.
Panel 5
They enter the room with the hatch in the floor.
Eithne: You have no idea what happened to your former selves!
Eithne: You'll make the same mistakes you made last time, and get killed again!
Hugh: We'll be more cautious this time, and you won't be at risk.
Panel 6
The three descend in the gravity-lift, Eithne pouting, Murphy looking sad, Hugh resolute.
Eithne: Hmp. All this work for nothing.
Hugo: You will be properly compensated for your time and skill.
Murphy: And we'll be back in a year, and then you can come with us on our next mission, okay?
