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
Every panel on this page is a wide-angle shot of BrrrptBrrrft, Eithne and Pbpbzzzftt. Eithne is confined to a chair, although we can't see much below her waist. In the first panel, BrrrptBrrrft is placing an electrode-crown on Eithne's head.
BB: Watch this: we'll get everything just from the electro-sponge and then that'll be it.
P: The sponge will extract the data we need, honey. Best not to resist it ...
Panel 2A
Camera trucked in slightly: Sparks fly out of Eithne's head. It looks really painful.
SFX: ZORCH!
BB: Ha! We might get some entertainment out of this after all.
P: Oh dear! Please just relax, sweetie.
Panel 2B
Camera trucked in slightly more: B removes the electro-crown, leaving Eithne's head smouldering. She looks bedraggled
BB: Nothing! Well, we have more interesting methods.
P: It's only going to get worse, honey!
Panel 3A
Similar shot, but now Eithne is tied spread-eagle on a large X-frame. We're zoomed in to just above her bustline, we only see her arms splayed out on either side of her.
BB: Ok, tell us how you contact your CUSH masters.
Eithne: I've told you, we've had no contact with the CUSH.
Panel 3B
Eithne grimmaces in sudden agony. The reader is left to imagine what they're doing to her.
Eithne: HNNNNNNGGGHHH
P: Please cooperate, honey! It's really for the best.
Panel 4A
The questioning continues.
BB: Alright, then tell us where your partners ran off to. Where is your base?
Eithne: I … honestly I don't know!
Panel 4B
More agony.
Eithne: AAAAAAAAAAA
P: I can't help you if you don't work with us, Enya.
Panel 5A
With Agent Ppppbbthshpt in the lead, the two muscle-men are dragging Eithne back down the corridor to her cell.
Caption: After another two hundred kiloseconds or so of data aquisition:
Panel 5B
The muscle-men toss Eithne like a rag doll, onto the bunk in her cell.
No dialog
Panel 6
Eithne is lying mostly prone on her bunk. Her face is close to us and we can see her eyes barely open. Behind her, the muscle-men are departing.
Eithne (thought): I seriously gotta get the flaming fuck out of here.
