The shape of things to come...

And to think that all of this was done with film photography and (probably) paste-up layouts. No Photoshop. No InDesign. Not even Quark Xpress or Corel Draw. This cover has a spot metallic silver ink, too, around the border. This whole mag looks like it cost a fortune to make. There's a bound-in fold-out poster and a little poster print card of the Zaku with a silver ink background. And a weird mini-comic bound into the middle. And some duo-tone pages. And this is huge, too – 11.5 x 8.25 inches. Oh, the 80's!
