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.
Panel 1
Establishing shot of the planet Parangaricutiro – a broken-apart world with one-third of its mass being orbital debris. In the middle-ground we see the starship popping into the area.
Hugo (from ship): Ah, Parangaricutiro. So tragically beautiful.
Murphy: Also quite deadly. On the surface as well as in orbit.
Hugo: Well, planetary collisions tend to work out that way.
Panel 2
Cut to the control room. Eithne, Murphy and Hugo in their chairs, looking a bit tense.
Murphy: Not to mention, the perfect place to put this ship's gravity and reaction drives through their paces.
Hugo: If by 'perfect' you mean unforgiving.
Murphy: Don't be a pussy, Hugo.
Panel 3
External view, the ship weaves and dodges its way through the debris-field.
Eithne: Ulp! W-we didn't do this on the last shake-down, Murphy!
Murphy: Last time Hugo was captain. And Eithne, if you don't have the stones for stuff like this, you can stay home when we head into deep space.
