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
Seamus chats with two guests, one male and one female. Their 'accessories' stand a bit back and form a circle around them.
Male guest: So, you knew Dr. Po at the time he developed the Karyopherin-Dimorphic Phosphorlyzation process?
Seamus: A few decades prior to that, actually. We met at one of the Science Reconciliation Conferences after the end of the First Mercorp War.
Panel 2
Three-shot of Seamus and the two guests, some of the 'accessories' visible.
Female guest: The first war! He must have been quite young then.
Seamus: He had just turned 40 -- in Terran years anyway. Conditions here were quite challenging then. Everyone was either in caves or enclosed surface habitats.
Panel 3
Three-shot of Seamus and the two guests. We can see Nicole looking bored.
Female guest: But the terraforming project had begun more than 50 years earlier!
Seamus: Yes, but it was a slow process. It would be -- ah --80 more Huoxing years before the outdoor air could be safely breathed.
Panel 4
Similar shot. Nicole suppresses a yawn. Seamus smiles at his own joke.
Female guest: I was born in 221 -- by our calendar. I don't recall not being able to breathe outdoors.
Seamus: That would be 434 by my calendar -- but what's 213 years among friends?
