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.
We Now Return You To Your Regularly Scheduled Program. [ Mar 1, 2021 ]
Texas has returned to more normal winter weather conditions, power is back on and Internet connections are working. Which means Scott has new Quantum Vibe strips ready to go this week. We appreciate everyone's understanding and patience as we emerged from hibernation.
And if you haven't already, please help us keep the lights on by buying Quantum Vibe books (in print or digital) along with any of Big Head Press's other thoughtful stories.
Panel 1
Split L/R panel. On the left, Otto's shocked expression. On the right we see what he sees. The face is a mass of scars, the eye sockets empty, the ears withered stubbs.
No dialog
Panel 2
Otto's shock is turning into a look of intense sorrow. Now Daskalov enters the frame, reaching across the bed to clasp him on the shoulder.
Daskalov (OP): Otto? Are you okay?
Panel 3
Otto is bowed forward, his hands covering his face. Daskalov is splitting her attention between her patient and Otto.
Daskalov: Look, there's no shame if this is too much for you.
Daskalov: There are other areas you can work in ...
Panel 4
Medium c/u on Otto, raising up and lowering his hands. His face is still wet but he has a look of grim determination.
Otto: No. I … I want to work in this ward.
Otto: I can help these people, and every shock makes me stronger.
