Perhaps you are interested in knowing how to survive the end of civilization in an alternate universe. Or perhaps you'd like to know how to take advantage of the apocalypse to shape this universe into an alternate reality.

Ooh! There's a nice Alan Moore interview inside as well.
Looks like a cool magazine. The artwork is superb. Wish I had time to read it.

What would be a Steam Punk Apocalypse? Someone drops the Ether Bomb? Crass Yankee commercialism causes the collapse of decent manners? Tentacled, blood sucking Martians invade with their war tripods and heat rays?

A steam-punk apocalypse describes this country in which it's impossible to get a good cup of tea, because they don't use BOILING water- only very hot water.
No steam- I go punk.

Speaking of a post-Republican reality, it's me again with the Drexel debate-question issue. Got a couple of options listed here; if you're interested in the intersection of science and the US Presidential election, one of these might catch your eye. I'll be submitting one or two if I can, and a second opinion on which is best is always helpful.

I'm glad that this magazine is getting some recognition, there have been some interesting articles in past editions, such as how to do electrolytic etching. Just don't blow yourselves up trying...
