Don't know if any other have posted it, but I have found some dates in the comic

Hi guys, this is my first time posting in this subreddit. IDK if someone else has posted this but I found these numbers resembling years while reading my Fury Road comic, on the hand of the history man. The text resembles "2001 OIL WARS" "2025 WATER WARS" and "2031 LIMITED NUCLEAR ENGAGEMENT" Could these be the dates of certain events in the reboot timeline? These dates also make sense since you know Fury Road reset the world to the modern days and would help to build up the reboot timeline with its dates and years. What's your guys opinion?

If you live by an Alamo Drafthouse, Furiosa is back in theaters for a 1-2 nights in January

I was checking to see if my local drafthouse had any details for screening of The Brutalist and saw this on their calendar and immediately picked up a ticket 🍿

May be the last time we get to see it on the big screen

Mondo War Rig Vinyl Pre-Order?

Hey everyone. I’m wondering if anyone here has ordered the Mondo vinyl for the Fury Road Deluxe Soundtrack? It’s the $70 edition. On their site it says “Pre-Order” but gives no indication of when it’ll ship. It’s been like that for months. If anybody knows anything about this it would be great. Looking to buy one as a Christmas gift. If it won’t get here in time it’s no issue, I just want to know if it’ll get here at all, LOL. Thanks.

Wasteland Drivers Ed

I had an idea for a comedy sketch: a Dad needs to get driving lessons for his teenage kid but is frustrated because all the instructors are too expensive. So he finds the cheapest one he can. But it turns out to be a mad max style guy named Scumulus who only teaches wasteland style driving techniques, e.g. how to outrun scavengers, how to salvage guzzoline and spare parts from a wreck, etc.

At the end of TRW, Max realizes...

that the tanker is full of harmless dirt...at that point exact moment...I think he didn't expect to survive. That he was shocked he didn't die. Kinda like a..."holy shit, what do I do now?!" Anyone else? I'm also rocking a micro dose of [I've forgotten the common strain, but fungi].

What if they made a mad max spoof?

What jokes would it have? Who would be in it? What other movies might also be included to be made fun of?

I think for one, you'd need some Femme Fatale as the primary antagonist? And vehicles of ridiculous nature.

How did the wretched know about the citadel

Joe obviously doesn’t advertise its existence so where did they come from the aquifer probably isn’t famous enough to be well known by that amount of people and I very much doubt that it was spread by word of mouth the people in the wasteland don’t seem the sociable type

Is There Any Other Series with More Consistently Great Villains Than Mad Max?

Every single Mad Max movie has featured an excellent villain from Toecutter in Mad Max to Dementus in Furiosa. It seems like most people consider Aunty Entity to be the weakest villain of the series, but that's still a movie that features Master Blaster, plus Aunty Entity still totally rules because she's played by goddamn Tina Turner.

It's a common trope that many other series have a "villain problem" in which the villains are almost never very interesting (I'm looking at you, MCU). Can you think of any series that has consistently produced such high-level villains?

(Inspired by this post: Favorite villain in the series? : r/MadMax)

Mad Max (Thunderdome) & Blaster Master Zero Crossover

The story of How Jason From the Blaster Master Zero series became "Master" from "Beyond Thunder dome". Blaster is one of the mutants from the first Blaster Master Zero. Spoiler ahead about Leibniz, who things are revealed about in Blaster Master Zero 3.

From Jason to Master: A Mutant World’s Fall

Prologue: The End of a Journey
Jason had finally succeeded. After a grueling battle on the planet Sophia, he had rescued Eve and eradicated the mutant threat. But the victory came at a cost—GAIA-SOPHIA was destroyed, and the dimensional rift that brought Jason to Sophia began collapsing. To save Eve, Jason used the last of the VRV energy to push her back to Earth, while he stayed behind to stabilize the rift.

For a fleeting moment, Jason believed he could endure the strain. But the universe had other plans. As the rift shattered, Jason was flung across time and space, his consciousness and body twisted by unknown forces. When he awoke, he was no longer on Sophia—or Earth. He was in a wasteland.

Chapter 1: Arrival in the Apocalypse

Jason stumbled through the barren desert, his body weak from the dimensional transfer. The environment was hostile—blistering heat, toxic winds, and constant danger from scavengers and mutants that seemed oddly familiar. In this dystopian future, resources were scarce, and survival demanded ingenuity. Jason's advanced knowledge of science and engineering, honed by years of fighting mutants, became his most valuable asset.

He found refuge in a settlement ruled by chaos: Bartertown. Here, technology and resourcefulness were power, and Jason quickly adapted. Using scraps of technology from the ruins of a lost civilization, he crafted devices to harness methane energy from pig waste, revolutionizing Bartertown’s power supply.

This earned him the attention of Aunty Entity, the town’s ruler, who appointed Jason as the head of Bartertown's energy production. But over time, Jason’s experiences in the wasteland hardened him. His ideals of heroism and justice were worn away by the constant cruelty of survival. He became simply "Master," the brilliant but ruthless engineer who controlled Bartertown’s lifeblood: its power.

Chapter 2: The Rise of Blaster

Meanwhile, something else had survived the dimensional collapse: one of the mutants Jason thought he had eradicated. Known as Alpha Mutation, this creature was a powerful and intelligent mutant from Sophia that had been pulled through the collapsing rift alongside Jason. Unlike its kin, Alpha Mutation was more adaptable, learning to survive in this harsh new environment.

Alpha Mutation was captured by Bartertown’s scavengers and brought before Jason. Recognizing the creature's immense strength and resilience, Jason saw an opportunity. With the same cold pragmatism that had defined his transformation into Master, Jason fitted the mutant with cybernetic enhancements, enhancing its brute strength and giving it basic cognitive implants to ensure obedience.

The mutant became "Blaster," Jason’s enforcer and protector. Together, they ruled the underworld of Bartertown—Master, the cunning intellect, and Blaster, the unstoppable muscle. To maintain order and fear, Aunty Entity devised the Thunderdome, where disputes were settled in brutal, gladiatorial combat. Blaster was often the reigning champion, undefeated in the arena.

Chapter 3: The Shadows of the Past

Jason—now fully consumed by his identity as Master—tried to suppress memories of his past life. But fragments lingered: dreams of Eve, flashes of GAIA-SOPHIA, and the ideals he once fought for. These memories haunted him, making him question the man he had become.

One day, a wanderer entered Bartertown—a lone figure with a vehicle resembling Jason’s long-lost GAIA-SOPHIA. The sight stirred something deep within Master. The wanderer challenged Bartertown’s rule, seeking to dismantle the corrupt power structure. Master, conflicted but unwilling to relinquish his grip on Bartertown, sent Blaster to face the intruder in the Thunderdome.

During the battle, Master realized the truth: the wanderer’s ideals mirrored his own from years ago. Watching the fight awakened a spark of the man he used to be, and for the first time, Master questioned whether survival at all costs was truly living.

Epilogue: Redemption or Ruin

As the Thunderdome erupted into chaos, Master made a choice: he sabotaged Blaster’s cybernetic control system, giving the mutant the freedom to decide its own fate. In the end, the wanderer and Blaster joined forces, overthrowing Bartertown’s corrupt rule. Master vanished into the wasteland, a ghost of his former self, searching for redemption in a world that had lost all sense of it.

And thus, Jason's journey ended where it began—in a fight for survival, but with the hope that even in a broken world, humanity could find a way forward.

Leibniz’s Fall and the Rise of Aunty Entity

Prologue: The Collapse of Sophia
After the events of Blaster Master Zero 3, Leibniz’s role as a key figure in the war against the mutants took a dark turn. Although her intentions were noble—protecting her world and defeating the mutant threat—her reliance on advanced technology and the VRV system destabilized the delicate balance of dimensions. In the final battle on Sophia, a catastrophic failure in the VRV system created an uncontrolled dimensional collapse, pulling Leibniz into an unstable rift.

Unlike Jason, who was flung to Earth, Leibniz found herself in a future Earth consumed by apocalypse—a wasteland where survival outweighed ideals and hope was a fleeting memory.

Chapter 1: A Stranger in a Strange Land

Leibniz awoke in the barren deserts of the Mad Max universe, her once-pristine armor damaged, her weapons drained of energy, and her connection to her advanced technology severed. With no way back to Sophia, she was forced to rely on her intellect and grit to survive. The wasteland’s brutality shocked her. It was a world ruled by chaos, where mutants and scavengers roamed freely, and power was held by the cruel and the strong.

Despite the horrors around her, Leibniz’s resolve never faltered. She had been a protector and a leader on Sophia, and she vowed to find a way to impose order on this broken world. She quickly rose to prominence among the scavenger bands, using her tactical genius and charisma to unite them under her command. They came to see her not just as a survivor but as a leader who could bring stability to the chaos.

Chapter 2: Building Bartertown

Leibniz’s intellect and knowledge of technology proved invaluable in the wasteland. She discovered a ruined industrial complex near a methane source and turned it into a thriving settlement: Bartertown. Leibniz established a barter-based economy and implemented strict laws to govern the settlement. But her leadership style grew increasingly pragmatic and authoritarian. The wasteland taught her that mercy was a weakness, and survival required sacrifice.

Adopting the name Aunty Entity, Leibniz cast aside her past as a protector of Sophia and embraced her new role as a ruler of the wasteland. She enforced her laws with the help of enforcers like Blaster, a former mutant from her old world who had been pulled through the rift alongside her. She augmented Blaster with cybernetic enhancements, turning him into her ultimate weapon and the champion of Bartertown’s infamous Thunderdome.

Chapter 3: The Haunted Leader

Though she appeared strong and unyielding, Aunty Entity was haunted by her past. Memories of Jason, Eve, and her role in the collapse of Sophia plagued her dreams. She questioned whether her rule over Bartertown truly represented the order she sought or if she had become a tyrant no better than the mutants she once fought against.

When a wanderer and a mysterious figure resembling Jason arrived in Bartertown, Aunty Entity’s carefully built world began to crumble. The wanderer’s defiance and Jason’s ideals reminded her of the person she used to be—a leader who fought for justice rather than power. These encounters stirred a conflict within her: Should she cling to the power she had built in the wasteland, or should she rediscover the values she once stood for?
