What's still around / what's not
net.spy!
around (I don't have the post with me at the moment, so I can't
quote it). Anyway, during my Senior Software Design class, I wrote out
the following list of what I know. Disclaimer: everything is correct
to the best of my knowledge, but I'm not perfect. If I'm missing anything,
or have anything wrong, feel free to correct me.
Listed as comics first, then fanzines:
Still around:

The Fur's Gonna Fly (G. Raymond Eddy)
Refractions (Low Orbit)
Lesbian Foxes in Hovertanks (MU Press - late as usual)
Questionable Titles:
Xanadu: Across Diamond Seas (still looking for a publisher after more than
two years. Lex is hell-bent on putting it out in color - a move which
will probably kill the title)
The Zoo (Scot Rhoads sez he's not working on it, for now.)
Centaur's Gatherum (Last issue came out in August, and Ed Pegg hasn't said
so much as a peep about this)
Red Shetland (GraphXPress is in real dire straits - I do not expect it to
survive for long)
On Hiatus:
Hey, Neeters! (Mike Sagara's making money with Revolutionary Comics, so
he's put this on hold)
Rowrbrazzle Showcase (no one in the 'brazzle organization seems to have time
to handle this.)
Dead titles:
long-gone:
Menagerie, Captain Jack, Critters, Morphs, Grunts, Space Ark.
Felicity (Tom Verre - one issue only)
Fusion (Eclipse)
Dreamery (Eclipse)
Equine (GraphXPress)
Mythagoras (for all intents and purposes)
Furversion (dead, dead, dead. One more issue will come out, sometime, with
old, submitted material, but that's it.)
Anthropomorphic Romance (issue six was the last)
Furnography (haven't heard a word about this in ages)
Q (Al Rainwater is apparently not acknowledging the existence of this 'zine,
nor his old name)
What's Michael? (saw in CBG that issue 3 was cancelled)
That's it!

Monthly. Next out Volume 10, ish 2; the March issue, which should be
done and mailed out by the 8th or 9th of this month assuming the copier
behaves itself. The Electronic Intercepted is already out; in fact I
just file attached you one at Jan Maskaant's Nul bbs last night... Be
sure to ask him for it... (it's EIC.ZIP)

Bob & Brenda have been having a hard time of it lately. They lost
their truck, and are now totally without wheels (neither has a job,
either). There may be another issue, but it will likely be some
time (they have to get some money, first).

And the next one I'm Really Really gonna try and make my schedule and have it
out by the first week of March. By the way, no issue has been more than
three weeks late.
> Black Diamond Effect (?, bimonthly?. Next out: ?)
I'm told #4 has just come out. I managed to miss #3 though. I'm just
praying that eventually an issue will come out and the whole gestalt will
congeal and make sense in my head. Otherwise I may be wasting a lot of money.

People are more violently opposed to fur than leather, because it's safer to
harass rich women than biker gangs.

Let me know if it does start to make sense...then I can go back and pick
up the back issues, and curse myself for making the wrong decision of
dropping it.
