Lots of pictures of Ozymandian Detroit around this weekend, from Time to Flickr. Lots of images to choose from, but the one I went with is a R. Crumb poster linked in the MeFi thread. 
Sadly the picture's not big enough for the lettering to be read, so here's a closeup of the fourth to last panel.
Originally that's where the comic ended, but Crumb later went in and drew three possible answers: ecological collapse, technofuturism, and ecotopia. Right now we're still hovering over "What's next?"
My former students may appreciate the similarities between this static image and the Soylent Green opening titles...
