And knowing is half the battle

And knowing is half the battle

Mar 20

There’s a new magazine popping up in the UK called Cereal:Geek (not to be confused with plain old Geek magazine, which is also worth noting) that will come out quarterly – 100 pages, no ads – and focus on those wonderful, wasted Saturday mornings of youth. Specifically the 80s. Boomers and Gen-Y need not apply.

Dubious at first, I’ve now shelled out for the first issue – the sample pages I’ve seen feature brilliant articles and features, such as tearing apart a single episode of The Real Ghostbusters, scene by scene, because it was made using many different overseas animation studios. Or taking a cartoon episode and coming up with a cover for it, if it were a comic. Not to mention a lot of fantastic art – I mean really, what are the chances we’re going to see new M.A.S.K. art anywhere else?

And then there’s the attention-grabbing cover, featuring a post-duke-it-out She-Ra, putting the “pow!” back in Princess of Power. Maybe they couldn’t show us blood and bruises on Saturday morning, but it was always there.
