HOT ON THE HEELS OF THEIR critically acclaimed Blake’s 7 Production Diary Series A book, Cult Edge are back with a long-overdue publication. In fact, it’s been 41 years since the last edition of Blake’s 7 Magazine, so perhaps that’s another contender for “longest-running sci-fi magazine”…?
This special edition – it’s a whopping 120 pages – continues the title’s penchant for Series D, with interviews, behind-the-scenes information and rare photographs. There’s a comic strip of opening episode “Rescue” and also a look at the proposed animated series from 2010, including unseen concept art. Blake’s 7 Magazine issue 24 will also benefit charity Terrence Higgins Trust. The centrepiece of the issue is an in-depth profile of actor Geoffrey Burridge, who played Dorian in “Rescue”. Burridge sadly died in 1987, aged just 38, due to complications from AIDS-related illnesses.
