Oh - thank Grud - Oddboy said it first, so now I can have a go - why does the Megazine play around at being a Cult TV magazine? There already is a magazine called Cult TV, isn't there? Or did it fold because of it's limited niche appeal? Even if it did, there's always SFX.
It's like Empire magazine devoting a couple of pages at the back to computer games. They know fuck all about computer games - they're a FILM magazine, and should stick to what they know. Let the specialist games magazines talk about games.
Which brings me to the Megazine - a sci-fi & fantasy (p'raps) comic anthology. Let's stick to that, and leave yet another nostalgiac limp down the path of The Avengers et al to the professionals. Just because it was turned into a comic at one point, doesn't mean it's fair game.
Interview the creators of 2000AD and the Megazine. Have an indepth article about the process from conception to script to scribble to finished page - let's hear from the unsung heroes, those lettering droids. How about a feature on the history of the small press.
Just keep it comics.
