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.

Daskalov drops some bandage cuttings in the tray.
Daskalov: Almost total. The front side of her looked like cooked bacon.
Daskalov: The back side was melted into the wreck of a flyer she was found in.
Daskalov: Worst burn case I've ever seen someone survive.
Panel 3
Daskalov is reaching around the sides of the bandaged head, her arm blocking part of the patient's exposed face
Daskalov: We think the blast hit while she was in one of the spheres adjacent to Villa-Lobos, the instant she entered a junction matrix.
Daskalov: Now, if Robin put these on correctly, I should just be able to lift the rest of this off, like so ...
Panel 4
Revers view to show Daskalov placing the remaining bandages in the tray Otto is holding. Otto's mouth is agape, his eyes saucers – he is clearly shocked by what he sees.
Daskalov: Now, after I've had a chance to ...
