Reactions and Reviews

“To Capture a Dream” is by Anita Hoosen. Otherwise, all the fiction in this Classic/Continued Classic zine is by Ristik except for “Thy Sweet Love Remembered,” a fine novelette on which she collaborates with Bogolub. Three stories were originally printed elsewhere. Standout novelette, “Thy Sweet Love Remembered,” a collaboration between Ristik and Bogolub, has a complex plot involving jeopardy to the tunnels and to V. Marty Dickens, ex-tunnel brat, shows up as a cop gone undercover as a law clerk in the DA's office. Once the partner of Jimmy Morero, slain by Paracelsus in “Alchemist,” Marty (a girl) is investigating the series of “slasher” murders that have been happening for the last few years, initially not realizing they're connected to V. Marty becomes romantically involved with Joe, V/C consummate their love, and Moreno's duplicity is revealed...and avenged...in a Continued Classic story with no explicit parallels to 3rd season except Moreno's being a crook. Two poems by MariLynn. Excellent artwork, mainly portraits, by Rosemarie Hauer.
