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 2054
Panel 1Now Alyss is gliding through one of Monty's laboratories. We can see the Panther avatar, smashed in a corner.
Alyss: Then there's Monty himself. Was his back-up recovered? Or Diana's?
Brittany: No, not yet. The radiation levels are still too high in there.
Panel 2
Alyss pauses before a bank of drawers such as might contain back-up cubes. She has pulled a tool out of her pouch.
Brittany: We worried that even if the back-ups aren't ruined, bringing them out in this irradiated environment would cause damage to the recordings.
Alyss: I suppose you're right. But I'll want to rig some means of extracting them safely.
Panel 3
Alyss reluctantly puts the tool back in her pouch.
Brittany: You should reconsider extracting any back-ups now. If you inadvertently cause damage, the consequences could be dire.
Brittany: Worse, you won't be able to know whether you caused the damage. Would you want to live with that?
Panel 4
Alyss glides away down another corridor.
Brittany: In fact, I recommend not staying long, yourself. Even with the radiation suit.
Brittany: Senhor Cooper would be very cross if I let you get damaged here.
Alyss: Heh. We can't have that, can we?
Alyss: All right, I've seen enough. Coming out.
