This is the "second" first issue. When I signed a contract with Vision Comics, publisher Darrell Benvenuto suggested we republish the first issue, but in full colour. Sounded good to me. He also suggested we run the pre-origin story (that I had drawn to Steve's script and was published in some issue of Albedo or other.) I drew an entirely new cover, full of new in-jokes. Anyone with half a firm grounding in furry fandom's history should be able to find a few of them. Some only I and a very few friends can spot. I don't know who did the colouring at Vision, but on the whole its a pretty good job.
