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.

Panel 2
Murphy and Hugo bicker a bit.
Murphy: Now just a minute, buster. I built this ship and I'm commanding.
Hugo: If you'll recall we agreed ages ago to take turns on these jaunts, and it's my turn.
Murphy: Like hell it is.
Panel 3
Murphy backs down, suddenly realizing he's right. Hugo stands up straight, taking charge.
Hugo: Yes, I captained last time but you took two turns previously, remember?
Murphy: Er … you're right, it is your turn.
Hugo: Next stop, the iron rubble pile in Andromeda where we ...
Panel 4
Exterior of Polyphemus popping into the new scene, a familiar starscape. But instead of the rubble pile they find the ringed star where it resided, but more from a distance.
Murphy: That's the right star system but we're more than 75 gigameters away from where we should be.
