It was put out by Marvel Comics. I sat down with it and re-read parts of it. There is a bio of Meat Loaf inside (July, '78 with Bee Gees as Sgt. Pepper's on the cover). This cracked me up (again--enjoy Andy): Nickname: Meat Weight: 260 pounds Favorite Pick-Me-Up: Oxygen straight from the tank Film Credits: The Rocky Horror Show Musical Style: Motorcycle Rock Presence: Gigantic Notable Stage Act: Pawing and making out with female singer Occupational Hazards: Bruises, cuts and passing out while performing Costume: Size 52 shirt and tuxedo Self-Image: Thinks he weighs 110 pounds and can do pirouettes on pianos Public Image: Dangerous, desperate, amusing, big By the way, the bio on the opposite page is for Leif Garrett, and the back cover is a full page ad for THE BAD NEWS BEARS GO TO JAPAN. It's like looking at a magazine from another planet. - --Mark, getting in the covered wagon in two more days ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 30 Nov 2009 15:28:23 -0800 From: Andrew Hamlin Subject: Re: [loud-fans] Pizzazz Oh my golly. Was Pizzazz the Creem of teen mags, or...? Trying to calm down with some Bebel Gilberto, Andy "I've always imagined that you'd take me to some place where there lived a huge viscous man-sized spider and that we'd spend the rest of our lives staring at it in fear. And that's how we'd spend our days of mutual love." - --Dostoevsky, from THE POSSESSED ------------------------------ End of loud-fans-digest V8 #226 *******************************
