    Nice sum up – thanks! :) But what do you call those post-WWII technology fiction like “Tank Girl”?

      “Tank Girl,” both the comic book series and the movie adaptation, I’d place into the cyberpunkish post-apocalypse congeries—like “Mad Max.”Mainly because it is set in the future, not in an alternative past (like material that qualifies as steampunk, clockpunk, or any other of the retrofuturistic timepunk subgenres). If it would be set in alternative 1930s/40s it’d most likely qualify as dieselpunk; alternative 1950s maybe atomicpunk. Depends on the kind of technology which is rendered as dominant. It of course is very doubtful if this blurry, fragmented taxonomy makes any sense at all …

    The most decisive is zeph’s last two sentences imho.
