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
The command deck of the Argosy, Captain Santos, First Mate Mueller, ChiefNav Bartoli. Important – there are two large windows to left and right.
Bartoli: We are now entering the 60 Gigameter Jovian perimeter.
Santos: Okay everyone, stay sharp. Scanners on maximum, charge the cannons, combat-bots on stand-by.
Panel 2
Two-shot of Mueller and Santos.
Mueller: Do you really expect trouble? We're a passenger liner, after all.
Mueller: It's not like we're carrying any high-value trade goods, or equipment.
Panel 3
Mueller and Santos.
Santos: No, but we are carrying several high-value passengers.
Santos: Gensaxwal officers, a Lunar Senator, Omegatek muckety-mucks.
Santos: They're supposed to be meeting to resolve the problems on Io.
Panel 4
Looking past Bartoli at Santos and Mueller.
Mueller: Huh. Labor troubles. They should just vacuum the lot of them and bring in fresh workers.
Santos: Recruitment is expensive. I hope they find a less drastic solution. I own some Gensaxwal stock, too.
