After the End: Apocalypse sur le Texas, which is largely set in a post-apocalyptic America during The '60s after the Cuban missile crisis resulted in the USSR and US nuking each other (unaware the US had thrice as many warheads as the Soviets). | |

Second American Civil War | |
| Jour J (Comic Book) / int_3e7a80ee | comment |
Second American Civil War: Apocalypse sur le Texas or Texan Apocalypse has the remnants of the US (after the Cold War ended in the US and USSR firing everything they had at each other, the US having SEVEN times as many as the Soviets) each declaring themselves the "real" US and waging war on each other. The plot starts with a faction of Southern Gun Nut fundamentalists led by Charlton Heston raiding the last missile silo to destroy their enemies, the Californians, lead by Richard Nixon, and the remnants of the original US government lead by Henry Kissinger, while a French and British coalition tries to stop them. It turns out the silo's inhabitants siphoned off the fuel decades earlier to power their base. | |

Utopia Justifies the Means | |
| Jour J (Comic Book) / int_45fe3a2e | comment |
A little boy named Maxime out stargazing happens to spot the iceberg, saving the Titanic. He becomes a journalist working for the New York Star, and ends up preventing Prohibition by capturing a meeting of gangsters working out their bootlegging plans. WW 2 doesn't happen after Einstein and Hitler die on the Titanic when it hits an iceberg for good in 1936. The Wall Street crash still happens, but Maxime builds up his empire slowly, branching out into food production that prevents the Ukraine famine and most world hunger problems, causing Stalin to be deposed and tried. Unfortunately, he falls into a Utopia Justifies the Means and ends up turning the world into a dictatorship with forced euthanizing of anyone over 100 (to his credit, he does go through it himself). | |

Covers Always Lie | |
| Jour J (Comic Book) / int_7315fd38 | comment |
Covers Always Lie: Dragon Rouge depicts a mushroom cloud and the blurb reads "An American nuclear strike saves France at Dien Ben Phu". While entirely correct (and preventing the Vietnam War), this is only the first few pages of the book, which is actually a Detective Noir story in which Nixon was in cahoots with a heroin smuggler and Reagan orders whistleblowers beaten to death as part of his electoral campaign, and the US still gets its land war in Asia- with China. France doesn't appear in the rest of the book. | |

For Want of a Nail | |
| Jour J (Comic Book) / int_79a60aec | comment |
For Want of a Nail: The Battle of the Marne was just barely won by the Germans, capturing Paris and causing the French government to send assassins to kill the Tsar on learning he intends to pull Russia out of the war. A little boy named Maxime out stargazing happens to spot the iceberg, saving the Titanic. He becomes a journalist working for the New York Star, and ends up preventing Prohibition by capturing a meeting of gangsters working out their bootlegging plans. WW 2 doesn't happen after Einstein and Hitler die on the Titanic when it hits an iceberg for good in 1936. The Wall Street crash still happens, but Maxime builds up his empire slowly, branching out into food production that prevents the Ukraine famine and most world hunger problems, causing Stalin to be deposed and tried. Unfortunately, he falls into a Utopia Justifies the Means and ends up turning the world into a dictatorship with forced euthanizing of anyone over 100 (to his credit, he does go through it himself). Spartacus' revolt manages to escape to Sicily, as the pirate commanding the evacuation fleet was among those who escaped Caesar's revenge. Caesar doesn't go to Gaul and conquers Sicily instead, defeating the slaves (despite their fleet-burning Archimedes mirrors) but ends up blinded by Spartacus' children operating one of the mirrors. | |

Invaded States of America: Played with in Apocalyse sur le Texas. A joint Anglo-French campaign is launched on American soil in 1967. It's soon revealed that due to the Cuban Missile Crisis escalating to nuclear war in 1962, there technically isn't an America anymore. And the British/French soldiers are the good guys. | |

Hitler's Time Travel Exemption Act | |
| Jour J (Comic Book) / int_cdc4a218 | comment |
Hitler's Time Travel Exemption Act: Repealed, though the consequences vary: sometimes WW 2 is prevented (when he drowned after killing Einstein when the Titanic hits an iceberg in 1936), sometimes it still happens with different protagonists (the Omega trilogy has a fascist France face off against the UK and French resistance via sub-launched missiles, with the US pointedly not warning the UK about it, after Hitler's remilitarizing the Rhine is met with the complete destruction of Stuttgart). | |

In Spite of a Nail | |
| Jour J (Comic Book) / int_d243518d | comment |
In Spite of a Nail: The ending of Vive l'Empereur ! Where the Emperor's death results in France and Britain fighting a much bloodier version of World War I. Le Lion d'Égypte ends with the Papacy seizing Da Vinci's special designs for their own quest for power, restoring something akin to Renaissance history as we know it. As noted above, killing Hitler is no guarantee of preventing WW 2. Le Gang Kennedy: The French winning the French and Indian War means a huge swathe of the American continent is still culturally French, and the US is limited to the original 13 colonies. Doesn't stop Prohibition bootlegging from being the main source of income for many gangsters, including the Kennedys. Paris Secteur Sovietique: The D-Day landings fail, meaning the Soviets get a lot further than Berlin and making Paris the midpoint between the Soviet and American blocs. Les Russes sur la Lune: The Soviets getting a man on the moon first ends up causing their collapse ten years early. Dragon Rouge: Nuking the Vietnamese when it's still the Indochina war means no Vietnam war... but a China war instead. | |

| Jour J (Comic Book) / int_d4a4771e | comment |
Richard Nixon, the Used Car Salesman: Adolf Hitler is a hit man for an Austrian secret society in Vive l'Empereur !. Vladimir Lenin is a French agent. In Apocalypse sur le Texas, Charlton Heston is the fundamentalist leader of the neo-Confederacy, which allies fire-and-brimstone preaching with The Klan. In Qui a tué le President, he's mentioned as a vice-president. In Qui a tué le President, he's a four-term President who gets shot and killed. In Apocalypse sur le Texas, Nixon is the governor of California, and mentioned to be thinking of seceding. | |
