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 1700

Panel 1
Hugo, Murphy and Eithne sitting at the table in the Causa Sui galley. Eithne is eating from a bowl.
Hugo: Hyper-advanced, god-like beings and they spend their time playing, games?
Eithne: Well, that's what I might do.
Murphy: But think of all the other possibilities!
Panel 2
Eithne pauses in her eating long enough to deliver the following:
Eithne: From what I understand, they did. And did them. These guys are at least 30 petaseconds old, maybe a hundred. And that's just since their corporeal civilization ended.
Eithne: What do you do when you've done everything? Especially when you have a small group of peers to do it with?
Eithne: You either play war games or you go to war, for real. And even BattleRampage 40 Million gets old after a few hundred megaseconds.
Panel 3
Hugo is brooding, realizing for the first time the error he had made.
Hugo: But this is no computer simulation. This is real warfare, with real sapient beings, however manufactured.
Eithne: Yeah. How many Gluteans have your Cush 'assimilated' since you joined them?
Murphy: That's a touchy subject, Eithne. Can we revisit that later?
