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.
Project Complete! [ Oct 31, 2023 ]
We made it! We exceeded our target goal and we're wrapping up the loose ends. Big thanks to our project backers. We're your biggest fans for supporting our project to create the Omnibus hard bound edition of Quantum Vibe: The Murphy Drive, a collection of the first three volumes of the Quantum Vibe saga.
Over the next week or so, Scott will be assembling the book pages for printing. We expect to have the printed books and other items on hand and ready for ship in December 2023. The E-book edition of the Omnibus should be available for download from DriveThruComics to those backers who selected that award. Vouchers will be sent via email.
Transcript For Strip 1812
Panel 1More of a frontal angle on Zander, talking happily. Lanky older teenager sprawls in his chair.

Caption: Still, having grown up on Zytemonde has instilled a healthy … let's call it caution, when discussing legally questionable activities.
Caption: So, I used code-words and other round-abouts to get across what I needed Zander to do for me.
Panel 3
Looking past Diana at a holo-image on Zander in front of her. He's looking cocky.
Caption: In the first few cycles after we arrived, I could ask Zander to do most anything that had to do with technical stuff and he'd happily do it for me.
Caption: But now he's caught on to how things work in Bubbleopolis, and the value of his skill.
Panel 4
Otto comes up behind Diana as she is still engaged with Zander, startling her.
Caption: We were negotiating his fee, when ...
Otto: Senhora Martelli! They've found your boss, Sr. Gómez!
