Frequently Asked Questions

 

Q: Is Future Shocks associated with Alan Moore?
A: No, there was only one instance where Alan Moore and Futureshocks.com crossed paths and that was through the site owner & Alan Moore's publicist concerning setting Futureshocks up as a fan site that was devoted to Alan Moore's work. Futureshocks site and Alan Moore are not related. Alan Moore did contribute to 2000AD's publication called "Tharg's Futureshocks" early in his writing career.


Q: Is Future Shocks associated with 2000AD Comics (Rebellion) and/or Jason & Chris Kingsley?
A: 2000AD is a comic series published in Britain which includes such hits as Judge Dredd. Jason & Chris Kingsley started Rebellion in 1991 (Aliens vs Predator as some of their productions), and took over 2000AD in 2000. Although there has been a few emails over the years in which Futureshocks name was shopped to Jason & Chris there is no association with them. The site owner has a lot of respect for Jason & Chris and what they have done with Rebellion.


Q: Is Future Shocks associated with Alvin & Heidi Toffler?
A: No. But, Future Shocks is definitely inspired by Alvin & Heidi Toffler and the work that they have done & continue to do.


Q: Is Future Shocks strictly a Science Fiction Site?
A: No. We are not sure what we exactly are. There seems to be no real category for the site as it tries to keep a balance between science fiction, science fact and the impact of those facts on society at larger.
