So I am in the middle of a reread and just finished That Which Redeems.

Being a map geek, when I came up to this strip https://archives.sluggy.com/book.php?ch ... 2004-09-13 I immediately went and looked for a real life corner of Reilly and Coal.

I did find a Reilly street in NJ, but this being real life, of course it does not form a corner with a Coal street. https://goo.gl/maps/drP5beP1PDktMy237

I wonder if Pete chose that area randomly. Probably yes, but I couldn't help digging a bit.

Maybe. Pete is a Jersey boy.

But the usual disclaimer is that the niftyverse is not an exact replica of the regularverse to stop people from nitpicking minor details and historical inaccuracies.

Consider it a nice Easter egg if you like it :)

Clearly, because the Battle of Trend in the regularverse had no demons or shotguns. It was not nearly as nifty as one in the niftyverse.

Love Easter eggs. Especially if they come from a mecha easter bunny.
