PAGE 2 MERCURY EDITORIAL Perhaps you wonder why you are getting another free issue (I am speaking about most of you that I sent last issue to free with no return) The reason is 4e Ackerman, and the LASFS. 30 copies are going out payed for by 4e's hard earned cash. Also, note the very large number of articles, items, etc by 4e & Morojo. By the way, Morojo's Angelenotes, of the now dead SFW will be a regular feature of MERCURY.... The LASFS is behind me, so how can I fail? When they make up their mind to do something they do it! Did anybody notice the little picture in the circle on the cover? Well, the first one writing, telling who it is gets a free copy of MERC. No insults meant to the person, it's just supposed to be an outline. This issue may seem to be just a publicity number for DAWN, but we feel we have something really worth publicizing and I think you will too, when you see DAWN. Thanks again to Forry, Morojo, Walt Daugherty, and the rest of the LASFS...Tom FAN MAG REVIEW SCIENTI-COMICS:- Swell comic mag from Philip Bronson, 224 W. 6th St., Hastings, Minn. Very well hectoed.
