"Trifecta" is a '' Judge Dredd'' story arc published in British comic '' 2000 AD'' in late 2012, following on from the earlier strip ''Day of Chaos''. The story was an unannounced crossover between ''Judge Dredd'' and its spinoff strips '' The Simping Detective'' and ''Low Life''. ''Judge Dredd'' started the arc with a prologue in "prog" (or issue) 1803, "Bullet to King Four", while the new ''Simping Detective'' strip started in prog 1804, and ''Low Life'' in prog 1805, with seemingly unrelated stories. In prog 1806 a new ''Judge Dredd'' story, "The Cold Deck", began. The title refers to a cold deck in card games, where a deck of cards is swapped with a stacked deck during play. All three strips were revealed to be part of the same story in prog 1807, when a cliffhanger at the end of that week's episode of "The Cold Deck" became the opening of ''The Simping Detective'', which then carried on into ''Low Life''. One of the writers, Simon Spurrier, has said that the story came abou ...

Saturn has made appearances in fiction since the 1752 novel ''Micromégas'' by Voltaire. In many of these works, the planet is inhabited by aliens that are usually portrayed as being more advanced than humans. The planet is occasionally visited by humans and its rings are sometimes mined for resources. The moons of Saturn have been depicted in a large number of stories, especially Titan with its Earth-like environment suggesting the possibility of colonization by humans and alien lifeforms living there. Saturn Early depictions For a long time, Saturn was incorrectly believed to be a solid planet capable of hosting life on its surface. The earliest depiction of Saturn in fiction was in the 1752 novel ''Micromégas'' by Voltaire, wherein an alien from Sirius visits the planet and meets one of its inhabitants before both travel to Earth. The inhabitants of Saturn have been portrayed in several different works since then, such as in Humphry Davy's 1830 novel '' Consolations ...
