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 ]

(There are still six of you who have not responded to the survey asking for e-mail and snail-mail addresses, he'll do the best he can.)
Panel 1
Two-shot of Eithne and Hugo. Eithne is taking umbrage.
Eithne: 'Untrustworthy'? Hugo, I can't believe I'm hearing this … this misogyny from you!
Hugo: Oh, it's not misogyny. It's the hard lessons learned from two thousand years of history.
Hugo: Not to mention, for lack of a better term, my own 'lived experience'.
Panel 2
Two-shot of Murphy and Eithne. Murphy takes Eithne's hand.
Murphy: Sad to say, I have to agree with Hugo.
Murphy: You have only lived in a propertarian anarchy with an egalitarian justice system.
Murphy: But any culture where one gender dominates the other tends to be, well, unbalanced, and more prone to irrational and destructive values.
Panel 3
Three-shot. Eithne puts in her two-grams' worth.
Eithne: I may be inexperienced, but I have studied history. And you two are overlooking something important.
Eithne: This is not a human culture. It is something different, and our history and your 'lived experience' are irrelevant. We should proceed cautiously but with open minds.
Hugo: Very well, so long as it's not with empty heads.
