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.
Kickstarter Success! [ May 13, 2025 ]

Panel 1
Two-shot of Seamus in his chair and Sharkisian sitting/leaning on her desk, watching the screen. Sharkisian has seen this before and is calm, but Seamus looks appalled.
Claud (from screen): WE WANTD 2 FIND OUT IF CHEEZ ADDICT CUD POSIBLY MAK SUCCESFUL SUN-DIV, SO WE CONSULTD AN EXPERT ON PILOT FYSIOLOGY.
Panel 2
On the screen, we see a slender blonde woman, apparent age about 40, seated behind a desk. We can also see the back of Claud's head in the foreground. A blurb at the bottom of the screen identifies the woman as Dr. Catherine Zike.
Zike: Highly unlikely, if not impossible.
Zike: While pilots on long solo flights will often use modern stimulants, the combination of chemicals in so-called 'cheez' would cause a rapid deterioration in ability to focus.
Panel 3

Medium close-up of George Ringo.
