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
In the examination room, Nicole and Buford (Ventura is waiting in the lobby) with Dr. Lee -- a very slender Korean man. Buford, her Anysuit turned off and pulled down to just below her waist, is lying prone on a bench while Lee holds a scanning device over her lower back.
Dr. Lee: Ah yes, lower back stress, very common in Beltapes.
Dr. Lee: Have you ridden in a Tube recently?
Panel 2
Nicole looks embarrassed.
Buford: Yeah, my friend here thought it would be 'interesting.'
Dr. Lee: Well, that is an interesting way of putting it. The tube likely aggravated the stress you already had from local gravity.
Panel 3
Same shot. Nicole looks guilty.
Buford: So, what can be done about it?
Dr. Lee: For now, I can give you steroids for the pain.
Dr. Lee: Also, I can give you nanites to strengthen your Thoracolumbar fascia.
Panel 4
Same shot. Nicole gamely tries levity.
Nicole: I'm all for a stronger Thoracolumbo whatchamacallem!
Buford: Can you give her somet'ing that'll make her talk less?
