What appears to be a new Tomorrowland-inspired adventure kicked off nearly a month ago. Stop Plus Ultra. Like a new world order conspiracy, the rebel Stop Plus Ultra is focused on the Plus Ultra Society and how they 'abandoned' us for Tomorrowland:
Over a week ago, this video appeared, an 'interview' with a worker from the World's Fair:
Now, this weekend, Stop Plus Ultra is going to rally. This tweet was given, with a detailed backstory on why we need to "#TakeBackTomorrow", including a mysterious comic, the same comic that the young boy read from our Before Tomorrowland preview:
That lead to this tweet:
This lines up with Wondercon this weekend at the Anaheim Convention Center. We'll be there live for the Rally tomorrow on Twitter (@TheTomorrowTime) so you can discover what this all about. Follow us, and we'll see where this mysterious Tomorrowland adventure leads.
What started as an inspiring campaign of INNOVATION and AMBITION soured into typical, fearful, selfish abandonment. #StopPlusUltra

It started with this video, which even caught the eye of screenwriter Jeff Jenson:
Very creepy. Especially with the Carousel of Progress music from the background. The clip appears to use clips and pictures from The Optimist.
Over a week ago, this video appeared, an 'interview' with a worker from the World's Fair:
This is the same story that we both heard about during The Optimist, and saw a clip of at Destination D, and in the recent Japanese Tomorrowland Trailer. With that video, there was a call to arms:
.@geologylady We will force them from the shadows. The time to rally is almost upon us. #TakeBackTomorrow.

Now, this weekend, Stop Plus Ultra is going to rally. This tweet was given, with a detailed backstory on why we need to "#TakeBackTomorrow", including a mysterious comic, the same comic that the young boy read from our Before Tomorrowland preview:
The answer reaches all the way back to my first introduction to Plus Ultra, which many of you have written in to ask me about. When I was a kid, I found this comic book in an antique shop on a family trip to New York:
Even then, something about its cover called to me. I can’t explain it. Several of the pages were missing, but it included the fabled blue bamboo glasses. As the final page instructs: “The truth is all around you. The world of today is pointing you toward the world of Tomorrow. Follow the signs. Find the launching pad. Take the journey.”
I followed the signs. I solved the puzzle. I was filled with hope. With optimism. My curiosity was not rewarded.
That lead to this tweet:
