    Civil War, the movie

    It came out that he did a bunch of the directing on Dredd and you can see that style start there

    Book Nook: If It Had Happened Otherwise

    The huge diversity of style is interesting, putting many anthologies in any genre to shame - guessing this is because as the first such AH collection, there weren't yet any "rules". I am a bit surprised there's nothing about Brutish imperial history, like "look how bad India would be if we...

    Civil War, the movie

    Really surprised there's no mockbuster. You could've called it Civil Conflict, The Second Civil War, British Civil War, Uncivil Warfare, Civil War: Battle of New York (not filmed on New York or a place that resembles it)....

    Judge Dread Rides Out

    A Dredd would likely exist but strip names are important (Mills talks this a lot in Be Pure and Pageturners), would he be as long running and iconic if he was called Dave Knuckle?

    Civil War, the movie

    There's a briefly seen map implying clean lines but multiple scenes show a messier thing - one scene has guys in uniform fighting an organised group in ragtag outfits, there's places with their own guards, never clear who the "what kind of Anericans" guy from the trailer is serving with.

    Civil War, the movie

    Yeah, you'd have to do a lot of work to get California and Texas allied  and a separate Florida-ruled group, I don't see it as impossible but it would take a lot. Us AH wonks can do that, the film sticks to using that to show an unsettling world of collapsed order and random violence without...
