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 ]

Williams: What's your progress on solving the problems, Frumm?
Panel 2
Medium shot of Frumm, in his chair, talking off-handedly.
Frumm: Edgington and Bernard are still at L-5 City, out of our reach for now.
Frumm: But I did wrap things up with our asteroid-wrangler, early this morning.
Williams (OP): Please elaborate.
Panel 3
Closer two-shot of Frumm and Williams.
Frumm: I tucked a trojan into a data packet sent to him, ostensibly containing rendezvous data.
Frumm: The trojan vacuumed his ship, and will take it to Hesperia for a hard landing.
Williams: Do go on.
Panel 4
Looking past Frumm at Williams, who is smiling an oily smile.
Frumm: The trojan will have re-written the ship's comm logs indicating several messages with parties on Hygiea.
Frumm: When investigators connect that ship with the black rock …
Williams: Yes. Outstanding work, Richard!
