      Cyberpunk traces its roots as far back as the sixties but really cemented itself in the late 70’s and early 80’s. The fact that their collective vision of the 2020’s was so damn close to reality is really damn freaky.

        There is a somewhat unknown cyberpunk comic called “2020 visions” written in the late 90s that basically perfectly predicts COVID-19.

        I read it for the first time during COVID times without knowing what I was getting into and it was pretty damn strange.
