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 3
Kāng, Horton and Burdon. Kāng looks thoughtful.bb

Just as Burdon starts to reply, a pair of Zangs barely miss them.
Burdon: If we can secure this building, we won’t have to ...

The fire-fight over, Kāng looks tired, his arms hanging low, as he answers Horton.
