Escape from New York/WMG

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


The Duke is Cyrus.

Escape from New York is an alternate reality if he had never been assassinated, and his plan to unite the gangs of New York had succeeded.

The Duke is Masai, Cyrus' second-in-command.

Escape from New York is what happens after Masai takes over the Gramercy Riffs and fulfills Cyrus' dream of uniting all the gangs in the city.

After he was arrested, they gave him a choice: the army, or jail. He chose the army, participated in Special Ops, flew the gulffire over Leningrad, ended up becoming a criminal again...you get the idea.

    • It's somehow doubtful that someone with a criminal record could become an officer, as Snake did.

Snake Plissken is Swan from The Warriors

He and Mercy leave New York, but eventually part ways. As above, he joins the army and the rest is history.
