ABCs of Tank Withdrawal Syndrome (TWS)
Grousing that the Tank got closed because someone left classified papers lying around in it becomes the latest conspiracy theory.

Justice Machine is an elite law
enforcement agency from the
planet Georwell, a parallel world
with advanced technology that
the Machine members believe is
a utopia. ("Georwell" is a play onÂ
George Orwell, the author ofÂ
Nineteen Eighty-Four, and the
society of Georwell is based on
the society of the novel, though
much more technically advanced.)
Arriving on Earth in pursuit of
Maxinor, a criminal and accused
terrorist from their world, the team
members soon discover that
Georwell is much more fascist and
dystopian than they had previously
believed. Meanwhile, the Georwellian
authorities have activated a second
team, called The Guardians in the
Noble Comics series, or the New
Justice Machine in the Comico series.
Zarren, their superior, recognizes that
Georwell's government is corrupt, but
he has no desire to change the system;
he merely wants to advance to a
position of more power. The Machine's
idealism might interfere with Zarren's
personal goals. He has the Machine
indicted as traitors, and they have no
choice but to remain on Earth. Later,
Zarren falls victim to his own schemes
and must flee to Earth, where he sets
himself up as the president of a small
South American island, the Arriba Atoll.
In "The Chimera Conspiracy", scripted
by Mark Ellis and Darryl Banks, drawn
by Banks, and published by Millennium
Publications, it is revealed that Georwell
is actually Earth in an alternate future,
some 900 years hence. Rather than
traveling from one dimension to another
, the Justice Machine went sideways
and backward in time, drawn to a temporal
nexus point where the events which
eventually create Georwell are in a state
of flux. I have some issues of this series.
