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.
We Now Return You To Your Regularly Scheduled Program. [ Mar 1, 2021 ]
Texas has returned to more normal winter weather conditions, power is back on and Internet connections are working. Which means Scott has new Quantum Vibe strips ready to go this week. We appreciate everyone's understanding and patience as we emerged from hibernation.
And if you haven't already, please help us keep the lights on by buying Quantum Vibe books (in print or digital) along with any of Big Head Press's other thoughtful stories.
Panel 1
Back over near the monitor screens, Nicole and Murphy talk with Seamus (Jesús and Moe can be seen in the background watching the monitor screens).
Seamus: A virus?
Nicole: A sophisticated one. Got by Murphy's defenses.
Panel 2
Seamus looks thoughtful as Nicole continues speaking.
Murphy: I'm pretty sure I picked it up when I hacked Argosy's comm system.
Nicole: You're at risk, too, since you also hacked into Argosy's systems.
Panel 3
Now Seamus looks worried.
Seamus: Oh, dear.
Murphy: You won't find it unless you run a Level 2 diagnostic on your implant.
Nicole: What's worse is, we don't know what the purpose of that thing is.
Panel 4
Seamus begins herding Nicole and Murphy away from the monitor screens.
Seamus: Yes, a virus that sophisticated is not likely a prank. It must have a purpose.
Seamus: Please come with me ladies, I'll need your help.
