Flash Forward combines comics with essays--many based on the podcast of the same name--to discuss futures both plausible and impossible, spurring readers to imagine what may be and to act in ways that will help shape what will be. Themes for the depicted futures include worlds where fake news wins, where smart cities are incredibly accessible--and dangerous--and where life-saving-drug pirates hide out among trees that interfere with electricity. Each comic is followed by pages of text delving into the questions brought up by the possible future and providing sources for anyone who wants to delve deeper down a particular rabbit hole. This being a work of many artists, its style changes from story to story, but each contributor is well matched to their tale, whether focusing on a contrast between sterility and freedom, painting the harshness of barren dystopian landscapes, or indulging in absurd expressions or costumes to lighten the mood of a frightening idea. Those who delight in potentially awful what-if scenarios will find a lot to love and chew on.
