• Stingray - is there more to Stingray's longevity than all that colour? Line out to Deepsville with Commander Daddio to find out about the Andersons' foray into inner space.

• Joe 90/ Business Holiday - Classic episode reviewed.
• The Metamorph Retrospective - Changes were deemed necessary to get the series back on the air, but did they do the trick? Our writers take a closer look at the colourful opening episode of Space:1999's reboot.
• Beyond Century 21 - a look at the fate of costumes, instrumentation and miniatures from the Anderson series after the closure of the studios... but where exactly do Sid James and mashed potato fit into the equation?
• Space:1999/ Missing Link - a look at Edward di Lorenzo's thoughtful offering from the first series. Is it more important to feel than to think? Koenig's not sure...
• Interview - artist Mike Noble discusses his comic strip career, his techniques, influences and drawing everything from cowboys to bedsteads!

Nice to see Joe 90 getting some attention in Andersonic. This and FAB are my two must-have fanzines! :)

Derek and Silverfish: Thanks for the kind words. Joe 90's a great series, can't understand why it gets less attention. Just a change of pace after Scarlet, otherwise up to the same standard.

Just wanted to show off our front cover for Issue 8, the image on which is the work of 'saturnapollo' (Mr K McNeil).
