As you all know by now, I enjoy sharing reminiscences from my childhood in these introductions, although judging from the incensed comments of some of our unaccountably angry PC-obsessed Keyboard Rambo detractors they would rather I stuck to the boring template of just telling everyone the delights that are in store within each issue. Hey, where’s the fun in that? Woke up and smell the coffee. That’s The Bland That Time Forgot round these parts.
In other words I shall continue to ramble on in an unpredictable manner in my editorials for both Infinity and The Dark Side, and kinder readers can just nod their heads sagely and say “Oh dear. My dad got that way in his dotage too.” Others can flagellate themselves with vintage copies of Starlog or Fangoria.
