WANTED: Subscriber To The New Famous Monsters

[Toy Ranch]

Thanks, Max!  Headed for the newsstand!

[Sean]

Cool!

[Universal Steve]

Those pictures are different than the ones I was talking about in the retro issue of FM. This is the ones I have. I also posted a picture of the cover because it is cool.

[Toy Ranch]

Thanks Steve, those are cool, too.  Is that issue also sold at newsstands, or is it an "order only" thing?

[Universal Steve]

I actually went into a local comic shop and they had it set aside for me already. I have seen it in a couple of other comic shop so I think you should be able to pick it up locally. That is how I got issue #70 just saw it on the stand.

Good lord, I miss Cinefantasique too. I read that for over a decade plus and I kept every copy because they were (and still are) a great reference. That was a completely intellectual magazine that was written for people who were really interested in the film making process for fantastic cinema. It wasn't about the sizzle, the stars or even the nostalgia. It was a nuts and bolts guide to the imaginative film business. It's hard to believe now that it ever existed!

That's why I loved writing for CFQ. I could go all-out and really delve into the nitty-gritty of whatever I was covering. Even when they went monthly and I was mostly working with co-editor Steve Biodrowski, I could get super-detailed on everything from collecting "Star Wars" action figures (for the 20th anniversary issue) to why Mel Brooks SHOULDN'T have made "Dracula: Dead & Loving It." After Fred Clarke passed away and Celeste sold it, it became a horrible, cookie-cutter monstrosity. I'd written for CFQ over a decade, and couldn't even get my phone calls or emails returned by the new editor, who eventually ran it into the ground. Didn't take them but 2 or 3 years to do it, either.
