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
Cut to the control cabin of the Cissonius. Manny is in his seat, Bill poking his head up through the access hatch.
Caption: Two days later:
Bill: What is it now?
Manny: That freighter which passed close-by earlier – the Cristina Kirchner – has changed course and is now on intercept with us.
Panel 2
Bill climbs into his chair.
Bill: Alert Hugh, in case this means trouble.
Bill: I'll get Seamus up here, I think we'll need him.
Panel 3
Now Seamus is poking his head through the access hatch. Bill and Manny are both tense.
Bill: Ahoy the freighter Cristina Kirchner.
Bill: This is Captain William Abbot of the Cissonius.
Bill: You appear to be on collision course with us. Please divert or state your intentions.
Panel 4
On a monitor, we see the face of Nicole. She's wearing her Sun-Diver jacket, and looks all-business.
Nicole: This is Captain Nicole Oresme of the liberated freighter Isabel Paterson.
Nicole: My intent is to come alongside. Requesting permission to send over two … guests.
