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.
Quantum Vibe: Château Périlleux Now On KIndle & DriveThru [ Nov 2, 2020 ]
The hiatus is over, but now's still a good time to go back and read the previous volume of QUANTUM VIBE: Château Périlleux. Now available in digital format on Kindle and Drive Thru Comics!
QUANTUM VIBE: Château Périlleux asks how does a society without a formal government deal with crime and criminal conspiracies? In the far-future space-city known as Bubbleopolis, they do it with a mixture of wit, grit, and a culture based on rolling up one's sleeves and doing what must be done. Diana Martelli, a recent arrival, likes to call it compassionate individualism. And speaking of, young Diana is tasked with finding out who killed a supposedly un-killable android -- and uncovers a conspiracy which shakes the very foundations of the city and its culture.
As a bonus, we've added sixteen pages of "The Trial", a supplement to "Château Périlleux" which was not included in the printed version. Enjoy!
Transcript For Strip 1812
Panel 1More of a frontal angle on Zander, talking happily. Lanky older teenager sprawls in his chair.
Caption: Zander Metaxas went through a growth spurt in the year since we came to this city.

Panel 2
Medium close-up on Diana gesturing as she 'speaks.'
Caption: Yes, I know the Q-links in our implants are supposed to be impervious to eaves-droppers.
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!
