RIP: Leonard Simon Nimoy
I cannot put into words what Mr Spock has meant to me over the years. And make no mistake, no one could have been Mr Spock other than Leonard Nimoy. I just need time to process this news and will, undoubtably, comment more fully later. For now I prefer to think that Spock, Bones & Scotty are hanging out with The Great Bird of the Galaxy and smiling down on us knowing how many lives they touched.

The Four Signets
I WANT THIS ISSUE!!!! As any follower knows I am a big fan of the ring covers and this is one of the very best!! The rendering is top notch and the patented Rozen colour composition is "at hand" in this illustration. Wow, this would have sent me over the edge if I had come across this in on the stands in 1935. Just as a note, this is the issue that came out two weeks before the last cover that was featured, "The Blue Sphinx". The color composition seemed to be very much in Mr. Rozen's mind at this point in his painting of the cover art. The story? According to this review, nothing special. But one should always find out for themselves...
