villa4europe Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 that's obviously a stretch (pun intended...) but I do like the idea of some sort of dystopian future where the works of hans Christian Andersen and the brothers grimm are worshipped in a similar vein 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They sell well but read like the dialogue from the Phantom Menace. Not recommended. Old fiction, but fiction anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This new sign is much grander; they're obviously cashing in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's another one where the post apocalyptic religion is based on a fear of developing machines again and the messiah is Ned Ludd. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
