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 158

Panel 1
Exterior of shuttle, rocketing towards Venus.
Nicole (from inside shuttle): Seamus, what happened?
Seamus (from inside shuttle): When their ship intersected the EM-shield, it effectively sent an electro-magnetic pulse through the ship.
Panel 2
Inside the shuttle, Nicole, Seamus and the Pilot. Nicole is still holding the Watson screen but the holo-display is deactivated. She is looking a bit shaken. Seamus is looking quite self-satisfied.
Seamus: As I expected, the pulse was enough to fry their circuitry.
Nicole: Geez.
Seamus: They're no threat to us now.

Panel 3
Close-up on pilot.
Pilot: However, a 250-tonne ship moving at 15 kps is a menace to local navigation.
Pilot: I'm plotting their course so we can avoid smacking into them again after turnaround.

Panel 4
Pilot, Nicole and Seamus, who is now looking a bit sheepish. Nicole is collapsing Watson back to smart-phone size and looking at Seamus accusingly.
Pilot: They will clear Ishtar Station by 119 kilometers, pass within 500 kilometers of Venus and then head out of the plane of the ecliptic, in the direction of Antares.
Nicole: Seamus, everyone aboard is going to die!
