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 1782
Panel 1Medium close-up on Diana's flyer, whooshing by at a weird angle. Diana is gritting her teeth.
Caption: Monty's Level 1 evasion program was no-nonsense.
Caption: I careened through the passageways at break-neck speed, turning left, right, up, down, diagonally, at random.
Panel 2
The holoscreen showing the rear camera view almost fills the panel. The mysterious follower is still there, in Diana's wake.
Caption: Unfortunately my tail was also no-nonsense. Or at least, had as good a 'follow' autopilot program.
Caption: This game was making me queasy. Needed to end it.
Panel 3
Medium shot of the flyer. It has now become flatter, pointier. Diana's knees are pushed up almost as high as her head in the now-cramped cockpit. Restraining belts cross her shoulders.
Caption: Monty also had installed a Level 2 Evasion program.
Caption: I activated it and …
Diana: Ack!
Panel 4
Straight-frontal view of the reconfigured flyer, with a saucer-eyed, screaming Diana peering from the cockpit. In her wake, several other vehicles gone a-kilter avoiding her.
Caption: I'm not sure how long the Level 2 Evasion lasted.
Caption: I do know I blacked out three or four times from the g-forces.
Caption: I'm pretty sure we broke some laws of physics.
