BLAST, World War I, and Tonal Shifts

The word war increases in use by a massive amount between the two issues, going from very infrequent in the first issue to the most common word in the second. The frequency of the other top words stayed fairly consistent between the two issues, suggesting that the second issue likely talked about art and war in the same context a lot of the time. If you look at raw frequencies instead of relative, war is used over thirteen times as much in the second issue as it in the first, while all of the other words are used less often in the second, usually around two thirds of the amount that they are used in the first. This is because the second issue of ''BLAST'' significantly shorter than the first.
