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
Alex Stern, sitting at a small table in a spartan room with Coronel Glass standing opposite, interrogating. Campos stands to one side.
Glass: As it happens, your alibi checks out.
Glass: You helped a cousin manage a fiesta de quinceañera for his daughter, and then spent the day hanging out with your other friends.
Sten: It was a bat-mitzvah party, actually.
Panel 2
Glass is getting in Stern's face again.
Glass: So, someone else obtained your entry codes and did the dirty work.
Glass: Who did you give them to? Who are you protecting?
Stern: No one! However that asshole got those codes, they didn't come from me.
Panel 3
Campose, still to one side, pipes up.
Campos: What about the girlfriend?
Glass: Yeah, we learned you have a girlfriend. Or did anyway. Zondra Quirós, was it?
Glass: She's disappeared. Do you know how we might find her?
Panel 4
Very close-up side view of Alex, thinking intensely.
Stern (thought bubbles): I know I didn't give away the codes. There must be a leak or hack in the system.
Stern: But Relógio Céu is taking tremendous heat for this and they want a scapegoat.
Stern: I'll be damned if I'm gonna be their scapegoat.
Stern: But the blackmail threat … and I told Shotah about it! What if he brings it up?
