What do they have against modern civilization? In Knock Knock, Winston stumbles over a tablet embedded in the ground. Egon translates the writing, and deduces that Doomsday has come early. Now, what I want to know is... what was a Sumerian prophecy doing under the streets of New York?
Sumerian society died out a millenium or two before New York was a mud hut kicked together by a native American. Have the Sumerians, unsatisfied with Shandor's failure to bring back one of their Gods, started exporting various Armageddons to ensure that one of them goes right?

What about the Mesopetamians and the Hittites? They seem to have been a disgruntled culture as well.

Perhaps tablets (and doors) like that are to be found around the world at a certain depth. You know, set there by the gods and written in the day's "most popular mortal tongue".

Hmm...well...the Sumerian gods could certainly travel anywhere they wanted to...maybe the river valey got too hot, and they took a vacationin New York.
Or maybe they just didn''t want the Doomsday Door to be on the doorstep of their own city...probably thought they shuld put that as far away from civilization as possible.

I wondered when the Assyrians were going to come into this, so I think I'd better start it.
There seem to be 3,000,000 completly miserable Assyrians living in the Tri-State area!
