I had each of those issues shown - what great artwork. Seems like yesterday that I was picking up my copies at the Waldenbooks bookstore in my local shopping mall. <br /><br />Thanks for the memory jog - thinking I should hit ebay for a few issues :)SeanFitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13783168019821581168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3298356674700006690.post-62776591891449596452016-12-26T16:07:20.250+00:002016-12-26T16:07:20.250+00:00Not to mention the several page spreads of whfb ad...Not to mention the several page spreads of whfb adds about in dragon at the time.

The one of the archer fighting the huge skeleton and the dinosaur sitting in the snow have aged very well. They bring back the sense of something really exciting being about to happen.

In part it would be because this sort of hobby magazine has moved online, but I can't help thinking that the ruthless consolidation in the print industry into much fewer hands must also be to blame. manveruppdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03520387215495542706noreply@blogger.com
