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 2041

Panel 1
A very dour Bok is presenting a newscast, appearing in front of his Las Noticias Indelicadas logo (which is a bit different now.

Large text behind Bok: Tapa Por Deus?
Bok: It is now two days since the event some are calling the 'God-Strike', and we have updated casualty numbers..
Bok: Everyone and every thing inside Villa-Lobos Sphere, which took the direct hit, is gone. That number is 152,329 persons.
Panel 2
Closer shot on Bok

Bok: The adjacent spheres – Merielles, Cavalcanti, Portinary, Garibaldi, and De Sousa, show 1.2 million dead, with 475,231 persons injured but surviving.
Bok: As for the dead, so far more than 827 thousand back-ups have been recovered, so they might be resurrected.
Bok: However since most people keep their back-ups in or near their homes, the residents of Villa-Lobos, along with the less fortunate in the adjacent spheres … belong to the ages.
Panel 3
A high-angle shot of a make-shift emergency medical center. Patients on beds, doctors and nurses bustling about tending to them.
Caption (Bok): Make-shift medicos have been set up in unaffected spheres to handle the unprecedented number of injured, but they are being overwhelmed.
Caption: Anyone with medical skills who is able to assist is urged to contact Hermanos Unidos, Ajuda de Emergência, or Manos Amigos and register with them.

Panel 4
Back to Bok
Bok: Word of the attack has been spreading through human space, and condolences are pouring in from hundreds of worlds, along with some offers of aid.
Bok: Not to mention, a torrent of queries from anxious relatives, friends and investors seeking to learn about the fates of loved ones and business partners.
Bok: And amidst those condolences and queries they often ask: What's coming next?
