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.

(There are still six of you who have not responded to the survey asking for e-mail and snail-mail addresses, he'll do the best he can.)
Panel 1
Medium close-up of Murphy lying on a table, her eyes have just popped open.
Murphy: Oh, no!
Panel 2
Murphy is sitting up on the table. This is the same scene we saw at the opening of Assumulation but Hugo is still lying supine on his table, unmoving.
Murphy: We've died ...
Murphy: HUGO?
Panel 3
Murphy turns to see Barbara (Eithne's mom) standing in the doorway. Barbara appears as a 40-ish woman, not a MILF but not unattractive either.
Murphy: Barbara? What's going on?
Barbara: We only got the 'death' signal from your entangled boson.
Barbara: Far as we know Hugo is still 'alive.' But he's not answering calls.
Panel 4
Murphy looks worriedly at the currently inert 'next' body for Hugo, lying there.
Murphy: The protocol in such a case is to animate the replacemen t body and then go find the previous instance.
Barbara: Yes, but after what he told me about his last encounter with a previous instance, things got really hairy. Thought I should ask you first.
Murphy: Things will get hairier if we don't find him.
