Just picking up on Mr Zapback's comments - but apols if in the wrong place.

PCG was closed at 12 hours notice. Chris A decided to launch Zzap almost immediately after meeting with the Ludlow band. It all came to an end over a trip to London by Julian Rignall that finally exposed a rift between Ludlow and Chris. Next thing, he borrowed cash from two people and set up Future... Both PCG and Zzap were the clearest evidence of Chris' innovation - something he never really got enough credit for. I remember at VNU we were told that 'you can't run copy across a spread!' and other moronic stuff...

Bit late for that, I'm afraid, as it's already gone to press. As for the White Wizard, he's a bit... odd in this issue...

Yeah, a bit disrespectful we might add...
...but all in the true spirit of Zzap! :D :wink:
Years...What is 20 years, fellow wizards? I got bored of the rings aeons ago!
