Well, *I* remember. I also remember Kon-Su and a couple of the other 'old=timers' from the 70's and 80's. I remember, not because I was there at the time, but because Mike Richardson dumped a scad of boxes in my lap when I visited Dark Horse in Milwaukie in the late 80's. I was able to read many of the earliest issues, and become acquainted with the writings and drawings of people who are for-real famous now. The flavor of decaying and mimeographed paper still sings in my nostrils.

I still have a box of the coolest stuff in my closet, and passed the rest out to other deserving Fivers. I even have an issue with Frank Miller's evil Santa, and a couple of Paul Chadwick's 'Sky Full of Heads'.

Like Mr. Nichols elsewhere here, I was CM for awhile. In my case it was the late 80's and early 90's, if memory serves. I contributed 101 consecutive 'zines, too, for what it's worth.

So, anyway, Christine, I still remember you. I hope that via this forum some of the newer members are gaining a sense of the history they've joined up with.
