cover of issue #2

It is subtitled: "Three Defectors, Two Screw-Ups, and a Cat."

From Media Monitor: "Contains two Man from UNCLE/Beauty and the Beast crossovers. 'Three Defectors, Two Scew-Ups and a Cat' puts two young UNCLE agents on their first mission together into the tunnels below New York City. In 'The Marquis of Carabas Affair,' a desperate Vincent is willing to do anything to rescue his beloved Catherine -- even call his GodUNCLEs..."

Author's comments:

Meanwhile (and forever) I've been working on the MfU/B&B zine, which is taking forever. The first half turned out to be 17K words. The second has got to be shorter, but all Vincent wants to do is talk and quote, quote and talk. I think he's avoiding getting down to issues with Illya, and Lady knows Illya would rather not talk than anything else in life. I do have to admit, though, it feels good on a very deep level to re-do B&tB the way it should have been the first time. But considering I've already advertized this thing'll be ready (sometime) in August. [1]

Reactions and Reviews: Issue 2

Thanks ever so for the UNCLE/BatB zine, a sort of alpha-and-omega between which we can fit all the UNCLE we like and much of the BatB that I, for one, have been avoiding for years because, as you say, it needed to be done right: and nobody ever did. [2]
