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.
Quantum Vibe: Château Périlleux Now On Sale! [ Oct 31, 2019 ]
How does a society without a formal government deal with crime and criminal conspiracies? In the far-future space-city known as Bubbleopolis, they do it with a mixture of wit, grit, and a culture based on rolling up one's sleeves and doing what must be done. Diana Martelli, a recent arrival, likes to call it compassionate individualism.
Big Head Press announces the release of the latest graphic novel in the QUANTUM VIBE series: Château Périlleux, in which young Diana is tasked with finding out who killed a supposedly un-killable android -- and uncovers a conspiracy which shakes the very foundations of the city and its culture.
Available now direct from Big Head Press.
The Transcript For This Page
Panel 1Byron interviews Lorelei and Diana. Lorelei interrupts Diana.
Byron: So, Diana, how did this situation with Smith & Holder develop?
Diana: Well, I just went in to the office where I work and there were ...
Lorelei: Diana was confronted by an S&H agent who shouldn't even be living in this city, let alone as a security officer.
Panel 2
Lorelei and Diana. Again Lorelei interrupts.
Diana: Well, at first it was two other agents who said they were there about ...
Lorelei: The two classic agents behaved professionally, of course.
Diana: Well, not so much at first, but I managed to sort it ...
Panel 3
Lorelei and Diana. Diana is getting somewhat annoyed.
Lorelei: Some people don't want to hear about it when one of them brutalizes a youngling.
Diana: Actually, as you measure years here I'm 20.
Lorelei: That overpowered beltape grabbed Diana's arm with both arms and snapped it like dry asparagus!
Panel 4
Pull back again to include Byron in the shot. Lorelei has her arms crossed. Diana is looking at her oddly.
Byron: So you're suggesting that security agencies should not hire beltapes?
Byron: It's not some more general corruption within the industry?
Lorelei: I think beltapes are the corruption of our security agencies.
Caption: Lorelei was using an older, rather rude pronunciation of the word usually pronounced 'bel-toppays' in modern Portanglish. Byron seemed a bit put off.
