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 2042
Panel 1Cut to: A conference room. Medium shot of Francisco Da Costa, with Dominic Martello seated to his right, Achal Verma, engineering consultant, to his left.
Caption: Elsewhere in the city, a Crisis Committee meets:
De Costa: So, what's coming next? Another high-speed space-turd?
Caption: Francisco Da Costa, financial advisor
Dominic: I'd prefer something more creative. Like a high-speed Picasso.
Caption: Dominic Martello, science advisor
Panel 2
Panning right, we still see Dominic but sitting to his right are Kāng Min-Chèng, military advisor, and farther right, Albert J Montoya, foreign affairs consultant.
Dominic: Or something sexier, like a high-speed Olivia De Beradinis.
Kāng: The enemy could launch another relativistic missile at any time from any direction.
Caption: Kāng Min-Chèng, military advisor
Montoya: We should expect some kind of statement from … whomever ... before the next assault.
Caption: Albert J. Montoya, foreign-affairs advisor
Panel 3
Pan right so we still see Montoya; to his right are Sheldon Rico, chairman of Mentes Libres, and Sergio Cooper, security advisor.
Rico: Agreed. Whoever we're dealing with put some planning and expense into this. He must want something from us.
Caption: Sheldon Rico, chairman of Mentes Libres
Cooper: I think in the short term he wants to generate chaos, put us on our back feet.
Caption: Sergio Cooper, Assurance Agencies Liason
Panel 4
Panning back over to the far left of that table, we see Achal Verma, De Costa, and Martello.
Verma: But, to what end? We have no resources here. What could they want?
Caption: Achal Verma, engineering consultant
De Costa: Well, this is a financial center. Maybe they just want money.
Martello: Do you think they'll accept my collection of Bill Ward nudes?
