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
Nigel, Buford, Nicole and Murphy file past the front desk, on their way out of the mortuary. Their eyes go wide in reaction to what the Clerk says to them.
Caption: A bit later:
Clerk: So, did your impromptu autopsy turn up anything interesting?
Panel 2
Murphy whirls around to confront the Clerk.
Murphy: This viewing was supposed to be private. How did you ...
Clerk: Relax! I didn't peep or listen.
Clerk: I just pay attention and use my noggin.
Panel 3
Medium c/u on the Clerk, counting off on his fingers.
Clerk: In the first place, I'm pretty sure that neither you nor the L-5er are actually family to the deceased.
Clerk: In the second place, I can tell by your walk that you are carrying something on your back, probably a rucksack hidden by a holo-field.
Clerk: In the third place, we got the body from Bosley, and a LOT of people are double-checking their autopsies lately.
Clerk: And in the fourth place ...
Panel 4
Nicole has grabbed a waste can and is vomiting into it. We can see Murphy and the Clerk behind her.
Nicole (SFX): HORRRK!!
Clerk: Your little friend there is looking green around the gills.
