The graphic novel is a bit less dire, with Annie using the stone to heal Mitch after they beat Bonnie up and running off to join the bush people, though Bonnie still has the Mitch clones.]]

The genre, as mentioned under the page image, is best described as "hipster dystopia", dealing with a lot of themes relevant to the millennial generation (such as the gig economy, sexual awakenings, class imbalance, and reliance on corporations despite seemingly opposing them), all lain against a backdrop of a DeathWorld that mankind can barely cope with and occasionally profit off of.

The first fully scripted podcast by Maximum Fun, ''Bubble'' is the story of the community of Fairhaven, a "deliberate community" developed by [[NGOSuperPower Tandem Corp.]] sealed [[DomedHometown within a dome]] to protect it from the terrors of the outside world known only as The Brush. Overall Fairhaven is a pretty decent place to live, full of hipsters, coffee bars, yoga studios, and only the occasional mauling by a venomous imp. Totally cool place to live, or at least survive.

!!''Bubble'' provides examples of:
* ApocalypseHow: It's unknown if the world outside of the deliberate communities has always been the DeathWorld that it is, but given the curated nature of Fairhaven it's safe to assume that some catastrophe turned the world this way.
* DeathWorld: Outside of Fairhaven the world is a nightmarish hell-scape with a blood red sky and marauding beasts that will kill you as soon as look at you. Despite this, the "brush babies", people who grew up out there and were taken into Fairhaven, have some fond memories of the outside.
* NGOSuperPower: Tandem Corp. employs most of the people living in Fairhaven and has enough capital to be the sole provider and sustainer of the deliberate communities that they create, giving the this distinct vibe.
* WrongAssumption: Mitch initially mistakes the party that Chad is throwing and inviting him to as some sort of giant orgy (of the BDSM variety due to the various sharp implements he saw laid out), but in actuality it is a [[spoiler: killing party where the participants plan to torture a chained up imp.]]
