The Future Ain’t What It Used to Be
Images of tomorrow, of course, are all about the attitudes of today. Take a look at any comic, TV show or movie set in the future and you’ll see what its creators thought about the prospects of the human race. Will we manage to create a largely peaceful society, harnessing technology and using it for the betterment of ourselves and our neighbors, resorting to laser pistols and death rays only when faced with an intractable foe from the Horsehead Nebula or a rampaging, pillaging, planet-eating monster? Or will we bring about some sort of Armageddon as we battle the technological horrors we have unleashed upon ourselves in a final, devastating act of hubris?
