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.
Kickstarter successful and closed [ May 19, 2026 ]

Transcript For Strip 516
Panel 1Back at the Po mansion, Peng-Bo Shen and Seamus continue their negotiations.
Peng-Bo: This new tech of yours looks like it could be very profitable.
Peng-Bo: I'd like to give my experts a chance to review the specs and test results before we seal a deal, though.
Panel 2
Peng-Bo and Seamus.
Seamus: That's understandable, but I'm under a bit of a time-constraint here.
Seamus: I must leave Huoxing tomorrow, and will not be able to return for a year.
Seamus: Therefore I must insist we conclude our deal now or else not at all. I have interested buyers on Ceres.
Panel 3
Peng-Bo cocks a wary eyebrow at Seamus.
Peng-Bo: You want me to pay you 12 million yinke based on your claims and a pretty video?
Seamus: Oh come now, Mr. Peng-Bo, you were ready to buy into my other project without knowing anything at all about it.
Panel 4
Peng-Bo makes his decision, as Seamus smiles sweetly. They shake hands.
Peng-Bo: {Sigh} You will make a certified recording of your claims?
Seamus: Of course. You will transfer funds to my account once I have done so?
Peng-Bo: Yes. Then I suppose we have a deal, Dr. O'Murchadha.
Seamus: I suppose we do.
