Definitely check out Zero Killer, a new ATL comic book from Dark Horse Comics, that was just released in stores July 18, 2007
POD:1945-Franklin Roosevelt dies, and Harry Truman becomes President of the United States. The Yalta and Potsdam conferences are acrimonious and inconclusive.
Rather than use atomic weapons on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Truman elects to demonstrate their power on an uninhabited island in the Pacific. Emperor Hirohito plans to surrender, but hardline fascists in the Japanese military command kidnap him. The junta vows to fight the Allies regardless of their use of atomic weapons.
General Douglas MacArthur recommends an invasion of the Japanese home islands. Operation Downfall begins with the invasion of the island of Kyushu. The Soviet Union invades the island of Hokkaido in the north.
1973- The United States withdraws all combat troops from Vietnam to aid in the defense of South Japan.
The Yom Kippur war erupts when Egypt and Syria launch joint surprise attacks on Israel. Soviet/Iranian-backed guerrillas from Lebanon also take part. OPEC suspends oil sales to the West, triggering an economic crisis.
From the start, the war goes badly for Israel – the increased Soviet influence in the Middle East and the transnational fundamentalist guerilla movements the Soviets inadvertently created makes a decisive difference in the military capability of the combatant Arab states.
Within weeks the Syrians are at the gates of Tel Aviv. The Israelis launch nuclear strikes on Tehran and Damascus. The Soviet Union responds by annihilating Israel. The United States retaliates by launching a nuclear strike against Moscow.

Nixon and Ford are assassinated in the chaos, along with with most of the Senate and the House. JOCOM is formed.
2007-Present-day. The ruins of New York City are a grim necropolis of feuding gangs, although it's said Africa was spared the devastation of Zero Hour. The sinister, militaristic JOCOM persists in sprawling underground complexes. And a bounty hunter named Zero stalks the towers of New York…
