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 1685
Panel 1Still strapped into her chair, Eithne is kicking frantically at the Cush trying to reach her.
Eithne: SHRRIIEEEEEEEEEEK!!!
Panel 2A
The Cush finally closes in and jabs a finger into the side of her neck.
Eithne: No –!
Panel 2B
Extreme close-up of (one of?) Eithne's eyes half-closed, use a gradient overlay to convey fade-to-black.
No dialog
Panel 3
Eithne finds herself floating in a void filled with swirling colors. She herself is a white silhouette.
Eithne: Whuh? Where? Ralf?
Panel 4
Close-up on Eithne's face (a white silhouette with eyes showing) looking sideways as the voices are heard.
Voice 1: So do you have her yet?
Voice 2: Yeah, she's in the buffer, gimme a sec to manifest her for you.
Voice1: Don't fuck this up, Dude.
Panel 5
Medium close-up on Eithne, head-and (bare) shoulders now appearing solid and normal against a scenic Earthly mountain background. Her gaze is angled downward, bewildered.
Voice 2: Okay, she's there. How's she look?
Voice 1: Ha-ha! Perfect Dude, per-fect.
Panel 6
Looking from behind Eithne, we see a very Frank Lloyd-Wright-esque mountain abode beyond a well-landscaped courtyard anchored by a swimming pool. In the pool, on an inflated cushion, sits a large, somewhat anthropomorphic frog. (And we can see Eithne's back from the waist-up and she has only a g-string.)
Frog: Hello, Eithne. May I call you Eithne?
Frog: My name is Framduniparlokek. But you can just call me 'Kek.'
