Considering the size difference there the fight could go either way... If Arthur's Seat lands a blow then the Stone is dust but, like a human fighting a fly, actually landing that blow is the tricky part...

Working on the cover at the moment and realised we still need a title. The suggestions given are here:
Rock n Load
Full Mineral Jacket
Rock the Magmar
Magmar's Zine
ROCK LORDS!
ROCK OF AGES
I'm actually a fan of just "ROCK LORDS!" as people will probably be confused and scared and have no idea what it is. What do you think?

Just keep it simple. It should just be... ROCK LORDS! The exclamation mark is all that is needed. -Ralph I'd like to point out that I still maintain this is the best title. -Ralph |

I'd like to do a short piece about what it was like to see the movie in a cinema back in the day. Is there any rush though? Another one of my hobbies is taking up most of my free time energy until around mid-April.

Not a huge rush, though I'd like to have everything finalised for April/May time at the latest to allow me time to sort out how I'm going to get it printed and make sure that's all done in time as I have literally no idea what I'm doing and don't want it to end up a last minute thing! |

Now about 'Possibly The First ROCK LORDS! Fanzine Ever!
(Keeping the actual ROCK LORDS logo nice and big and the main part)?

I read the post as suggesting the title be "Just ROCKS" which I found hysterical for some reason.

I get Blueshift's point about simplicity and mirroring Transformers, but Just Rocks is a brilliant title for a fanzine because it works on about half a dozen different levels.

In the grand tradition of comics recycling story names from other titles, 'Rock and Roll Out' should figure at some point in the magazine.

Where does Marbles fit into all this? Here's the thing about Marbles. How did he get from the handsome young Rock Lord:  To a man whose head is shaped like a pair of bollocks?  I think it was because he was running with scissors  |

Marbles didn't age well!
I was quite surprised at the level of inconsistency between the toys and the carton characters when I finally watched the movie the other week. And I watch Transformers!

Marbles is the only Rock Lord I own/know - in fact our own Nick gave him to me as I marvelled at his head shape! An incredible toy!

How are we doing with fanzine stuff guys! My plan is to try to get it all laid out and printed during June at some point in case anything horribly goes wrong!
