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
Two-shot of Eithne and Hugo. Eithne is taking umbrage.
Eithne: 'Untrustworthy'? Hugo, I can't believe I'm hearing this … this misogyny from you!
Hugo: Oh, it's not misogyny. It's the hard lessons learned from two thousand years of history.
Hugo: Not to mention, for lack of a better term, my own 'lived experience'.
Panel 2
Two-shot of Murphy and Eithne. Murphy takes Eithne's hand.
Murphy: Sad to say, I have to agree with Hugo.
Murphy: You have only lived in a propertarian anarchy with an egalitarian justice system.
Murphy: But any culture where one gender dominates the other tends to be, well, unbalanced, and more prone to irrational and destructive values.
Panel 3
Three-shot. Eithne puts in her two-grams' worth.
Eithne: I may be inexperienced, but I have studied history. And you two are overlooking something important.
Eithne: This is not a human culture. It is something different, and our history and your 'lived experience' are irrelevant. We should proceed cautiously but with open minds.
Hugo: Very well, so long as it's not with empty heads.
