Like Christmas

"It's a journal from Summercat! And he writes:"
Except I'm Jewish so it's not really Christmas but damnit I've seen enough Coke commercials to get the idea.
My stuff from Second-Ed came in today - and what I read only leaves me with more questions, more leads.
And it feels glorious.
Also daunting as fuck. This stuff costs money, and there's a lot of it and not a lot of money. But I don't think there's any interest in a Patreon or the likewhere I do writeups about ancient comics and zines. Half my purpose in doing this is showing that this stuff is out there and is of interest. There's not really a huge demand for it.
That said, it's interesting to see these as a glimpse into the past.
The box I took with me to work contains mainly newer Furrlough, but also 2-9 of Havoc Inc, Critters #2, Morphs 1,2, and 4 (Another anthology comic from 1987). It also includes some other zines, and both parts of Issue 100 of Rowrbrazzle. Sadly, I didn't have the time to read through some of these at work like I thought - I'm not going to repeat that again!
But at some point I need to do a proper writeup on these. I was just reading about another Furry fanzine - one that was dedicated just to reviews, articles, and commentary - and the Wikifur page doesn't have full information on them. I sent a note to someone involved with that zine (Furtherance) to see if he happened to know where I could track down the copies.
Ah well. AH WELL!
Let's see what happens, shall we?

I also refuse to take these on the plane, so it'd be a 9 hour drive xD
