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
We are looking at Juan in his living room through a monitor screen. He's relaxing on the sofa, watching a 3V recording of a Sportsball event.
Caption: I learned what happened to Juan a bit later, and regretted my earlier thoughts.
Caption: The first bit was captured on his home security video:
Panel 2
Juan jumps to his feet as two men approach from behind the sofa. He starts to turn around.
Caption: I know what you're thinking. 'Who the heck records himself watching 3V at home?'
Panel 3
Before Juan can bring his zringer to bear, one of the intruders zaps him.
Caption: The answer is, 'someone whose work tends to make serious enemies.' Juan's problem may have been that he wasn't paranoid enough.
Panel 4
With Juan sprawled on the floor, the intruders have taken his place on the sofa and watch the Sportsball game in progress.
Caption: But those thugs … there's an ancient word from a dead language that describes them best: chutzpah.
