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
Gilead Verdura, Mitch Stauder, and Bahman Salimi, seated together at the Crisis Committee conference table, looking very stern.
Verdura: This situation must change!
Stauder: All of our lives and property hang on the choices of five people.
Salimi: And you Pillars don't own all the spheres.
Panel 2
On the other side of the table, Lorelei, Jorge, Alyss, Enrique and Kofi are present.
Jorge: Since the assault, 75 of the city's spheres are owned by the Pillars.
Jorge: Leaving 76 owned by 19 other persons. You three own 17 of those.
Enrique: So what are you proposing?
Panel 3
Verdura, Stauder, Salimi
Stauder: You already have a Crisis Committee for dealing with this … crisis.
Salimi: We want to get in that tent, to know what's going on and have some say in what we should be doing about it.
Panel 4
Jorge and Alyss trade wisecracks via thought-sending. They both smirk a bit.
Jorge: They want inside our tent.
Alyss: The whole camel or just the nose?
Jorge: That's not the part that's trying to get in.
Alyss: So, they're just poking a little fun at us?
