Quantum Vibe
A thousand years in the future, humanity has colonized worlds in nearly
100 galaxies, thanks to Quantum Vibremonic technologies developed five

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 4
Now the group (minus Li and Warren) is standing around a child-sized bedroom suite. Nicole is ‘aiming’ her device at it.
Nicole: This device links to the Displacement Engine in our Cruiser.
Nicole: I can focus the field remotely on Brielle’s bedroom suite here, and …

Same shot, same characters, now the furniture ‘foomps’ away.

Close in on the characters. Brielle looks worried.
