Fictional characters and archetypes

They wanted a rehash of the old story - but the Heroes from the original trilogy have grown old, and don't really have useful advice. The younger generations would be Artists, maybe "Prophets" - but what kind of story does that combination allow?

Farce.

In the High, some youth chafe against the rigidity of the post-Crisis order. If there is little room for rebellion, there is room for whimsy. The rebels are either delinquents or people shut out of fully enjoying the benefits of the High (think of blacks in the 1950s).
The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist  but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
