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.

Caption: The Intergalactic Council 'interest section' in Bubbleopolis:
Mordecai: Has that bitch arrived yet?
Secretary: Ah, if you mean Minister Heidelberg, she has just entered the building, and will be here momentarily.
Panel 2
Ambassador Mordecai Montanha-Flores is sitting at his ornate desk in a well-appointed office, looking unhappy as he speaks with his secretary, who appears on a desk screen.
Mordecai: She's kept me waiting for almost 40 minutes already.
Secretary: I have managed to adjust your afternoon schedule, so the impact will be minimal.
Panel 3
Mordecai rubs his temples like he's got a headache.
Mordecai: Oh, this is nothing compared with the impact her mere presence threatens.
Secretary: Sir?
Mordecai: She's come to nose-pick my work here into oblivion.
Panel 4
Mordecai and the secretary on the screen
Secretary: Uh … did you mean nit-pick?
Mordecai: No, I meant nose-pick. She's a notorious booger-eater.
Mordecai: Try not to react when you see her doing it.
