If you’re like the ten or eleven other Tabloia
\nfans around the globe, then you’ve been
\nchecking your emails and frantically scanning
\nthe racks, every day or hour! You’ve nervously
\nre-examined the carefully-placed mark on your
\ncalender, and seen it’s been increasingly over
\nfour months since the previous issue of
\nTabloia came out! You’ve wept and lamented,
\n“O, How long can I go without my beloved Tabloia?
\nWill I ever see my most cherished weekly
\nnon-fiction tabloid magazine again! How have I
\nsurvived this long without all the joys it has brought
\nme! The misery! The misery!”<\/p>\n
The short answer is, Well, you must live without
\nit from now on, because due to poor sales, Tabloia
\nhas been cancelled! Kaput! Gone! So long!
\nNighty-night!<\/p>\n
However, the magic of Tabloia is still sizzlin’ strong!
\nAll the stories that were coming next in Tabloia are
\nnow simply to become their own books, (For example,
\n“The Dick Hammer Dailies #1!”, “Doris Danger Greatest
\nArmy Battles #1!”, “Spider-Twins #1!” “Dr. DeBunko in
\nThe Exorcist #1!”, and “Bride of the Lump #1!” And as a
\nspecial treat to collectors, notice how all these upcoming
\ntitles have “issue number one” in their titles! That’s right,
\nSalt Peter Press has learned at least two marketing
\nstrategies from their sordid past!<\/p>\n
With all these exciting projects in the works, how do fans
\nkeep track of what to look for? Here’s your answer!
\nSoon after the release of Doris Danger’s Humongous
\nSpecial (mentioned above), here’s what’s coming in
\nthe immediate future:<\/p>\n
“The Lump” trade paperback, featuring essays,
\nsketches, and a four page “Skitz Jenkins” story not seen
\nin America! (Originally published this Halloween in the
\nBritish horror anthology, “Dead By Dawn Quarterly!”
\nCheck it out at www.smallzone.co.uk\/scarcomics.htm!)<\/p>\n
Next on the plate, Tabloia’s premiere artist,
\nChris Wisnia, has been frantically at the drawing
\nboard with the latest Tabloia exclusive,
\n“Limbo Cafe,” the story of an atheist who dies
\nand finds himself in a Christian Fundamentalist
\nafterlife! Chris is thirty pages in, and has about a
\nhundred seventy-two pages to go! More soon!<\/p>\n
