Quantum Vibe
A thousand years in the future, humanity has colonized worlds in nearly
100 galaxies, thanks to Quantum Vibremonic technologies developed five

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.

Montoya: Prescribed treatment: 20 days in total nanobiotic reconstruction, with another 90 days minimum physical therapy recommended.
Panel 3
Same shot, now Diana has tears streaming down her face, she is shaking, on the verge of collapse.
Montoya: There's an additional notation, with regard to mental health:
Montoya: While the body can be restored, a mind that has gone through the sort of trauma that produced these injuries, is not as easily healed.
Montoya: It is recommended that within 15 days after decanting ...
Panel 4

Snake: Senhora Martelli!
