(...) issue. (...) I *loved* Snarfquest, and was bitterly disappointed by the ending. But I can see how such a long-running comic saga could have burned Larry out. Sadly, I gave all my issues of Dragon to my sister... What I really looked forward to (...) (25 years ago, 21-Sep-99, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

(...) I don't think I ever saw the ending, I'll have to check. A couple years ago, I got about 50-75% of issues 50-160 from one of my mother's coworkers. That was really cool. :) (...) Well, there were some compilation volumes available for Wormy, I (...) (25 years ago, 21-Sep-99, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

(...) WOTC did buy TSR, and now Hasbro has bought WOTC... Don't know if EGG got re-hired though. (25 years ago, 21-Sep-99, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

(...) Hmmm.... Can't find anything on that at (URL) ... trying Gary Gygax's rather emotional FAQ at his home page, (URL) ... Nope, no mention of a re-hire. Arg. He does mention, however, that the sale of TSR to WotC was a step in the right (...) (25 years ago, 21-Sep-99, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

(...) Cool. I was sure the 4th book was about all that could be done there, I was thinking Card had pretty much mined out that theme. Does it suffer from the run-on tendency that recent Card works seem to exhibit? It's like, "Orson, get to the (...) (25 years ago, 22-Sep-99, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

I absolutely *LOVED* Card's earlier books. I'd put him on the caliber of early Stephen King. His short stories were especially provoking, if a bit gruesome.
