Humpty Dumpty
Why do we assume Humpty Dumpty was a gigantic anthropomorphic egg? Apparently the poem was originally a riddle, but there are lots of things besides eggs that can’t be reassembled after falling from a height and breaking. Not even by a bunch of horses.
Maybe Humpty Dumpty was a massive defense robot. Maybe he was sabotaged. Maybe the reason no one could put him together again was because he was a remnant of a bygone era, left behind by a world that moved on, and all knowledge of the ancient technology that created him was lost generations ago.

I forgot the TARDIS made a cameo in Fallout

When the Vault Dweller enters the map, all that can be seen (beyond the usual desert dust) is a large blue police call box. These were a common sight on the island of Great Britain during the 1960s. When the Vault Dweller approaches this strangely-located object, the light on top starts spinning, and the box slowly vanishes into thin air with a whooshing sound, leaving behind only a motion sensor.

Lovely.
There’s nothing better in a comic than a good old cutaway map/blueprints.
So when they give you a map of Hades, well, you’d better pay attention!
