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 1
In the control room, Murphy and Hugo are still being squeezed into their crash couches.
Murphy: Errnnh … 5000 seconds … how much longer --?
Hugo: Oh, I think 5 million kilometers is far enough, we should be past the shield.
Panel 2
The crushing acceleration has ended, Murphy and Hugo relax a bit but the crash-couches remain as they stand in their diases.
Murphy: Whuff! That's a relief.
Hugo: Now let's hope there aren't any more layers of shields.
Panel 3
Polyphemus pops into a new region, a bit above the plane of the rings.
Murphy (cameo): Okay, we're now 12.38 gigameters from where we were attacked.
Hugo (cameo): We must now bleed off most of our excess speed before we get there.
Panel 4
In the control room, Murphy and Hugo are again squeezed into their crash-couches.
Murphy: Nrf … High-delta deceleration is no more fun than acceleration.
Hugo: Be glad that I thought to turn the whole ship rather than just invert the thrusters.
