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.

Transcript For Strip 760
Panel 1Nicole's avatar kneels to face the doll.
Nicole: So what exactly are you, anyway? Are you Murphy's 'inner child?'
Doll: I don't know, I've always been here.
Panel 2
Hoisting the doll onto her hip, Nicole begins walking along the corridor.
Nicole: I guess the thing to do is find Murphy's adult avatar.
Doll: Avatar?
Panel 3
Murphy's avatar is standing atop a grassy hillock under an alien sky, in a standing yoga pose, looking very serene. We can see Nicole and the Doll as tiny figures in the distance.
