THIS INSTANT, ON THIS CURVE IN TIME AND SPACE, IN THIS PARTICULAR UNIVERSE, "JOKERS " IS STRICTLY A WORK OF FICTION. ANY SEMBLANCE IN ANY OF THE CHARACTERS HEREIN DESCRIBED TO ANYONE EXISTING IN "THE REAL WORLD" IS PURELY INCIDENTAL. SHOULD, HOWEVER, A READER FIND THEMSELVES UNCOMFORTABLY (OR JUST CLOSELY) IDENTIFIED WITH A PARTICULAR CHARACTER HEREIN DEPICTED, THEY SHOULD BEAR IN MIND THE FOLLOWING QUOTE;
“YOU WILL READILY UNDERSTAND WHY PEOPLE WILL GO TO ANY LENGTHS TO GET INTO THE FILM, TO COVER THEMSELVES WITH ANY OLD FILM SCRAP … JUNKY … NARCOTICS AGENT … THIEF … INFORMER … ANYTHING TO AVOID THE HOPELESS DEAD-END HORROR OF BEING JUST WHO AND WHERE YOU ARE: DYING ANIMALS ON A DOOMED PLANET.”
William S. Burroughs, “The Ticket That Exploded” 1962
David F. Brandon
