What If?

"We are seeking a strong mandate to lead this country through the next phase of global economic and security uncertainty. And so, I advise the Governor General to issue a proclamation to dissolve Parliament."

Good idea?

Poster for a 1970's television show called "What If?" ### **Overview and Style** The image is a vertical, retro-style poster for a television show called **"WHAT IF?"**. The aesthetic mimics 70s pulp science fiction art, featuring a rich, saturated colour palette and a textured overlay that makes it look like aged, distressed paper with folds and grain. ### **Typography** The title dominates the top half in massive, dimensional letters. Each letter is rendered with a unique texture representing different genres: * **W:** Brass steampunk gears and cogs. * **H:** Glowing blue circuitry lines. * **A & I:** Ancient, cracked stone blocks. * **T:** Organic, fleshy alien biological matter. * **F:** Eroded desert sandstone. * **?:** A window into a cosmic nebula with stars. ### **Central Figure and Vignettes** In the lower centre, a silhouetted man in a suit stands at a glowing blue crossroads that forks into multiple paths. Radiating outwards from him like a fan are six distinct alternate reality scenes: * **Top Left:** A retro-future metropolis with sleek skyscrapers and flying saucers. * **Middle Left:** A prehistoric jungle with a roaring T-Rex and a Triceratops. * **Bottom Left:** A sepia-toned film noir scene featuring a detective in a fedora holding a gun. * **Top Right:** Classic silver finned rockets flying near a ringed planet in space. * **Middle Right:** Two stern men in 1950s suits and hats, suggesting a spy thriller. * **Bottom Right:** An orange-hued post-apocalyptic wasteland with city ruins and a skull in the foreground dirt. ### **Text** The tagline "Explore the possibilities. Question everything." appears at the top and is repeated near the bottom. The logo **"MULTIVERSE TV"** is centered at the very bottom edge.

I've just realised my novel-in-progress has a slight Pulp Fiction vibe to it!

There’s also Pulp Fiction, but I think I like Django more and I like Blazing Saddles more so Pulp Fiction couldn’t make the top 3

Our first interview of the year is up on Tough Business— this time featuring Eisner-winning comic writer Ed Brubaker!

This one’s a companion piece to last year’s interview with @seanphillips.bsky.social, and we’re so excited about it!

Read it here: toughbusiness.neocities.org/edbrubakerin...
"I feel such admiration for Westlake and Darwyn's work" - An Exclusive Interview with Ed Brubaker For our first interview of the year, the team at Tough Business had the distinct pleasure of chatting with Eisner Award-winning comic book writer Ed Brubaker about crime fiction, his friendship with Darwyn Cooke, and all things Parker. We spoke to Ed's frequent collaborator, Sean Phillips, a while back about their Alan Grofield story appearing in Richard Stark's Parker: The Martini Edition - Last Call — and Ed kindly filled in some of the blanks for us. Check out the full interview below for a look behind the scenes of the first original Parker story, as well as a hint at what's in store in Five Gears in Reverse, the latest installment of the acclaimed Criminal comic book series. 1) How were you first introduced to Richard Stark's Parker novels? Was the Grofield solo series a later discovery? My dad had some of the Parker books when I was a kid. He collected a lot of different kinds of books including old pulp paperbacks, mostly detective or spy fiction but he also had a few Parkers. I think I loved the covers and they were very easy to read, and Parker is such a fun character. But other than when Point Blank came out on video and people finally wrote about that movie and how amazing it is, I hadn't really thought about the books until I was doing Catwoman with Darwyn Cooke. Darwyn was really into them, among other old books and movies and comics we talked about all the time. After that I started hunting them all down and got addicted. I even managed to find a hardback of Butcher's Moon.

Photos from scene of Pulp Fiction (1994, Quentin Tarantino) where Samuel L Jackson's character, Jules, and John Travolta's character, Vincent are discussing what the French call a deluxe cheeseburger, but with new dialogue: "You know what they call a fascist in America?" "They don't call it a fascist." "No, Republicans defunded the education system, they don't know what the fuck a fascist is." "What'd they call it?" "An anti antifascist."

I had just finished reading one of dorkiest pulp fiction bits of writing I think has ever seen print. Montrith (who has a knack for finding these things) thought it was some great fun.

But seriously, this is what I'm calling "colandar fiction". The story can't work without all the holes.

The violence in hard boiled detective fiction was required by the editors of pulp magazines such as Black Mask, a response to the demands of their blood and sex thirsty readers. All five of Hammett's novels appeared first, in serial form, in Black Mask. Each novel required thousands of edits...

A black background image with text on the left and centre, and a stack of white and chrome drums on the bottom right. The text reads: Julie Gatensby and Isabell Brewer have been friends since Julie saved Izzy from a mishap with some iced tea. When they start a band together, they finally start to feel like the cool kids they knew they were. After a concert at a local bar, their friendship is put to the test—and fails. Several years later, Julie returns home in the hopes of regrouping after a disastrous breakup from her band, her job, and her boyfriend. She also hopes she can revive a friendship that had long since ended. Izzy, however, is less receptive to Julie’s overtures. Years of hurt on both sides make relationships strained. Thankfully, everyone else around them seems to see what the women simply cannot: they are meant to be together. If only Izzy could admit her feelings. If only Julie could get over her self-hate. If only one of them would say what they really want. If only someone would turn off the home shopping channel. And if only everyone would stop telling drummer jokes! A black background image with an old-fashioned microphone with text over it. The text reads: Jacqueline Lamont likes control. She controls her life, her career, and her emotions by one guiding principle: attachments are dangerous. Fortunately, her career as a well-known folk singer makes that easy. Jacqueline lives out of tour buses and hotels, drifting from town to town, never staying long enough to belong anywhere. Music is her constant. Everything else is temporary. She’s happier that way—or so she tells herself. After all, in 1969, Jacqueline cannot hope for much more without risking the career she has fought so hard to build. Until a phone call rips her from the road, sending her back to a family she long believed had abandoned her and to a life she never meant to return to. Back in Toronto, Jacqueline struggles to find her footing and maintain any semblance of control. Especially when she keeps running into a charming young nurse who looks oddly familiar and seems determined to insert herself into Jacqueline’s carefully contained life. Shannon MacCartney is everything Jacqueline tries to avoid: rooted and compassionate. Worse yet, she has an unsettling ability to see past Jacqueline’s sharp edges. While everyone else sees a cold, difficult woman, Shannon sees what lies beneath the raised eyebrows, biting remarks, and relentless need for control. Jacqueline’s tight grip on control is challenged, as the universe and an infuriatingly determined nurse show her that letting go might be the only way to get what she truly wants. Now Jacqueline must decide what she truly wants—the freedom of leaving or the risk of staying. A black background image with text and an old-fashioned typewriter on the bottom right. The text reads 1954. Canada loves its pulp fiction—as long as the lesbians don’t live happily ever after. Cèilidh, a journalist by day and a lesbian pulp writer by night, is frustrated: the paperbacks she writes must, by law and custom, end in tragedy. Beverly Hendricks, an avid reader and occasional writer, is equally fed up with the absence of HEAs in books. Neither woman has found a happily-ever-after on the page—or in real life. And since they cannot stand each other, they certainly won’t find it together. When Cèilidh catches Beverly—armed with a utility knife, glue, and a stack of papers—tampering with her books at a local bookstore, it sparks an uneasy alliance and an audacious plan: rewrite the endings. Not just one of the books, but all of them. With help from a handful of not-quite-authors, Cèilidh and Beverly embark on a spree of literary sabotage. What follows is an adventure full of road trips, hijinks, one truly terrible misuse of a thesaurus, and the very real possibility of a happily-ever-after.
