Snow/Tiger[46] was a story featuring "a mixture of paranoid politics and extreme violence" written by Andy Diggle: originally pitched to Vertigo, it was turned down as being "too mainstream".[47] He reworked it, "I just took out the politics and left in the extreme violence", but the politics that remained still proved controversial,[48] although Diggle concludes that "the fact the story pissed people off on both sides of the political spectrum suggest I probably pitched it about right."[49]
