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 1
Looking from behind Nicole and Bustamante, we see an unexpectedly male face appear on the bench screen -- broad, heavy-browed, with thick, grey-flecked hair combed staight back. A bailiff stands beside the bench, announcing.
Bailiff: Oyyeh, oyyeh, now comes the honorable Judge Antonio Neopolitan, presiding over this court.
Panel 2
Two-shot of Nicole and Bustamante. Bustamante looks surprised. Nicole glances sideways at him.
Neopolitan (OP) (filtered): I know my presence here may be disconcerting for some.
Neopolitan: My colleague, Judge Clara Neopolitan, has had to excuse herself due to a family emergency and I will be taking this case.
Panel 3
Judge Neopolitan on the screen.
Neopolitan: Despite the last minute change I have had an opportunity to review the prosecution's charges.
Neopolitan: Mr. Bustamante, are you counsel for the defense?
Panel 4
Bustamante begins to speak but Nicole cuts him off.
Bustamante: Yes, your h-
Nicole: NO HE IS NOT!!
