Presumably, during the year 2000, all hell breaks loose. The Harvesters from GURPS Monsters are the closest official answer to what happened, but I'm not sure it has Mr. Shroeck's seal of approval.
Hmm, for one that generally likes the read "end of the wold" stories in comics, can someone kindly resume me about what happened to justify the "blank wall of precognition" which way piqued my curiosity ? In order to slightly curb my otherwise exceedingly completist RPG buying, I made myself a rule of never buying monster manual books. So I was blissfully unaware of anything about GURPS Monsters.
