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 1444
Panel 1External view, Causa Sui appears a few hundred light years 'above' the galactic plane. The galactic core is to the left, and a hypernova is on the right, barely within one of the galactic arms.
Eithne (from ship): Is … is that a hypernova?
Hugo (from ship): Yes, it is. Pretty much as our observation at distance predicted.
Panel 2
Eithne, Murphy and Hugo in the control room.
Murphy: Is that the potential Wolf-Rayet collapsar you were so interested in?
Hugo: Indeed. Very unfortunate for any systems lined up along its rotational axis.
Eithne: Unfortunate how?
Panel 3
Murphy and Hugo.
Hugo: In the early seconds of its collapse, the collapsar emits gamma-ray jets that will effectively sterilize any planets within 500 light-years.
Murphy: Thank you for not bringing us in line with one of those, Hugo.
Hugo: We are 12,000 light-years away, a safe enough distance with our shielding. I may be mad, but I'm not stupid.
