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 1809
Panel 1Jump to a bit later, Diana is on her feet, her arm healed. She's projecting casual clothing. Lorelei is gesturing towards a comm station on the other wall in the room, which also has some other bedroom furniture. At one point we can see a door to an adjacent washroom.
Caption: Lorelei set me up with a workstation and account on the house network.
Caption: This way I could continue my explorations in the Redes, in relative safety.
Panel 2
Diana is at the workstation, but looking distracted.
Caption: Of course I knew that deClayre could be monitoring my research, here.
Caption: The only thing I could do about that was use a two-pronged approach.
Caption: I'd do my more general searching on the workstation but then follow links directly with my implant.
Panel 3
Different angle on Diana. A separate holoscreen is visible in front and a bit off to one side. It includes an image of Sergio Fritch.
Caption: It was klunky and tedious going, but I did find a few things out.
Caption: Most importantly, that Sergio Fritch was also a former member of Républicains Pour La Démocratie, at about the same time Hayami was.
Panel 4
Close-up on Diana, looking worried.
Caption: Along with some other Gianturco Garantia employees.
Caption: That means the two biggest security companies in Bubbleopolis have likely been compromised.
Caption: I wasn’t at all comfortable being in shit this deep. I wanted more than a shovel. A back-hoe, or maybe a nutron drill.
