When I was a kid I loved fictional maps and would draw them myself. Here is a good one by Jack Kirby of the land of the Kamandi, the last boy on earth. I think it may have been put on veryserious before:

also some kamandi-reality for you by ryan sook/dave gibbons:

here is a labelled map of an elite North Korean compound, note the water slide:

And here we have the national network of bike touring routes. (It’s a PDF so I’m warning you cause I hate PDF’s).

@Phil WOW! The Kamandi map is awesome! My 3 favorite parts: “Kanga Rat Murder Society” “Strange Fire Area” and “Monster Lake”

All maps are awesome.
I really liked the cartogram from later last year that warped the geography of the U.S. to better show the political makeup of the country.
