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.

Transcript For Strip 444
Panel 1Establishing shot, Xie-Po's drawing room. Seamus looks about with a nostalgic look as he enters with Xie-Po and Bo-Nu. There are four overstuffed chairs arrayed around a small coffee table. Paneled walls with various decorations, some small statuary, etc.
Seamus: Oh, yes, I recall this room well. Your uncle and I spent many happy hours here in conversation, during my last extended visit.
Seamus: I remember he had a lovely android concubine -- what was her name?
Panel 2
Xie-Po looks at Seamus with narrow eyes, trying to figure out if he's being played.
Xie-Po: It was Veronica. But she's not around anymore. He tired of her and sold her a few years ago.
Seamus: Ah, well, I suppose such things happen.
Panel 3
The men seat themselves as an android servant brings drinks on a tray.
Xie-Po: But we am not here for reminiscing. I have a business matter to discuss.
Seamus: About my project, I presume. You have inherited Po Xu-Ke's share, yes?
Panel 4
Two-shot of Xie-Po and Seamus. Seamus does not look happy.
Xie-Po: Yes, your mysterious project.
Xie-Po: As it happens, I have someone who wishes to purchase my and my cousin's shares.
