From there, the city expands in all directions. At once SF, a contemporary demonology, an occult theory, a mutant utopia and an architectural treatise, Beta Testing the Ongoing Apocalypse is a collection of graphic fictions about the contemporary global megalopolis. This groundbreaking collection, originally published in an Eisner-nominated, smaller edition a decade ago, has only proven more prescient and resonant to our contemporary times than ever. For this new edition, Kaczynski created the original stories "Billion Dollar Budget" and "Rediscovery of the Real" and annotations. There's also a new foreword by science fiction writer Christopher Brown (Tropic of Kansas) and an entirely new cover design. Tom Kaczynski's graphic short stories trace a complex space- time trajectory from the smallest corporate cubicle out to farthest fathoms of the multiverse. Occult economics, metaphysical traffic jams, Marxist zombies on Mars, secret architectural societies, designer ghosts from the future, and demographics demons are just a few elements of a new untested future eschatology"--|cProvided by publisher 650 0 Cities and towns|xGrowth|vComic books, strips, etc 650 0 Zombies|vComic books, strips, etc 650 0 Demonology|vComic books, strips, etc 650 7 Städer|2sao 650 7 Zombier|2sao 650 7 Demonologi|2sao 650 7 Science fiction comic books, strips, etc.|2fast 655 7 Serieromaner|2saogf 655 7 Serienoveller|2saogf 655 7 Tecknade serier|2saogf 655 7 Science fiction|2saogf 655 7 Graphic novels.|2lcgft 655 7 Science fiction comics.|2lcgft 655 7 Comics (Graphic works)|2lcgft 700 1 Brown, Christopher,|d1964-|4aui 700 1 Arcane, Adalbert|4aft
