Probably took aspects of both.
For instance, the Singapore aspects I noticed was the emphasis on production (via use of mutants) to be part of the world economy, social control of the entire society and the idea of a modernized, rapidly growing society remininscent of Hong Kong and the Four Tigers.
From South Africa, they borrowed aspects of Apartheid, a militarized society and mutant only areas/'homelands.'
Teppy -- I love the tiny Teen Titans! I want them too.
Has anyone read Selena's Big Score, the Catwoman TPB? My digital copy choked and died about 2/3rds of the way in, and I just want reassurance if I go buy a paper copy that the ending doesn't suck.

Yes, and I don't recall the ending sucking, but I'll have to check when I get home, because I bought it during phase one of my comics addiction.
Not knowing anything about X-Men continuity, I thought that the Genoshan massacre occurred when Xavier's psychic twin Cassandra Nova unleased several skyscraper-sized feral Sentinals at Genosha, killing some 16 million mutants. Emma was one of very few survivors, mainly because of the secondary mutation.

Yeah. It was right at the beginning of Grant Morrison's run on "New X-Men." No mystery about it.
Oops, been a while. I read some of the follow up issues in other series, but not the actual issue itself.
Several skyscraper sized feral Sentinels killing 16 million people?
Do you have any idea how long that takes? Hrm, maybe I should hunt down those issues, the logistics of it seem wonky. Then again, it is Grant Morrison...

Bil, we're talking comic book reality here.
