A magazine which Future Publishing bought from Dennis, only to sell it on less than a year later. It was run almost exclusively by ex-Amiga Power staff (in fact, I was offered the editorship when Future bought it but turned it down for personal reasons), and shared many elements of AP style before being tragically sold for scrap. |

BUBBA'N'STIX REVIEW - February 1994
From the last issue. Mostly, when magazines close or are sold, it happens suddenly and without the possibility of reaction. Happily, I've worked on three (Sega Zone, Amiga Power and Your Sinclair) that were allowed to have final issues imbued with the knowledge of their own impending demise, allowing the staff a final farewell. It's the only right and proper way.
