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
Back in the drawing room, a largish holoscreen has appeared in front of the fireplace.
Peng-Bo: So, how many other shareholders are there?
Seamus: Only three -- one at L-5 City now, one on Gannymede and one on Hyperion.
Panel 2
Two-shot of Xie-Po and Peng-Bo. The former looks alarmed, the latter, annoyed.
Xie-Po: Gannymede! Hyperion? That's one of Saturn's moons!
Xie-Po: It takes more than 22 huofen for a signal to reach Gannymede, and 63 huofen to reach Saturn!*
Caption: * About 33 minutes and 95.3 minutes, respectively.
Panel 3
Seamus is smiling smugly
Seamus: A bit more than 64 huofen, actually, since Saturn is nearly opposite Sol from us now.
Xie-Po (OP): Gaah!
Panel 4
Three-shot of the men. Xie-Po is grimmacing in frustration, Peng-Bo is calm, Seamus grins wryly.
Peng-Bo: I propose we dispense with small talk and get this done with two exchanges with Hyperion. That way we're not here more than 26 or 27 huoke*
Seams: Agreed. With any luck.
Caption: * Roughly 6 1/2 hours.
