Dark plans fall like thunderbolts.
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.
Updates delayed by Thundersnow [ Feb 21, 2021 ]
Scott's home and studio were without electric power for three days after the freak winter ice/snow storm hit Texas last week. That plus needing a day to recover and recuperate has eaten up his buffer of strips and put him a week behind schedule. We regret that a one-week pause in uploads is unfortunately necessary.
QUANTUM VIBE will resume uploads on March 1, 2021
Transcript For Strip 2198
Panel 1Cut to: Albert Montoya is seated at a small cafe table, having a coffee. A video screen inset appears to one side of the panel, in which we see Sergio Cooper. Albert is not looking at the inset but is conversing with Sergio.
Albert: I'd say that's quite a lucky break, unless it's a red herring.
Sergio: Still, if you don't have any better leads …
Panel 2
Different angle on Albert, Sergio's screen still there
Albert: Yes yes, of course. I'm following these.
Albert: Turns out one of them is in Neuveau Mo'orea and I'm there now.
Sergio: Very good. But watch your step. Her bio indicates she has really sharp claws.
Panel 3
Albert sits back and chuckles.
Albert: Ha-ha. Well, mine are pretty sharp, too. But thanks for the heads-up.e
Albert: I need to go now.
Sergio: Good hunting, and watch your six.
Panel 4
The screen with Sergio is gone. Albert is turning to look at a lovely young lass dressed mostly in her green skin standing to the right and a bit behind him.
Albert: Ah. You must be Kahalaomāpuana.
Kahalaomāpuana: You pronounced correctly. Very impressive.
Albert: Thanks, but would you mind if I call you 'Ka' for short?
