Logo by Ted Delorme, Bruce Chrislip covers the hip Ballard scene including J.R. Williams - R.L. Crabb - brothers Kelly - Pat Moriarity plus a David Lasky mention, McJacksonstein escapes the Tumwater Psychiatric Prison for the Transculturally Perverse, Bil Keane Watch by Jeff Zenick - Wayno - Dusty Rhodes, CLG reader profile of Jeff Zenick, Bob Vojtko sends a blade of grass from his yard, Working Mother magazine apologizes for slamming The Master, Comix reviews by Lynn Hansen, Bil Keane Watch by Mark Campos, Dave Szurek on Obscuro press 1961, Comics Journal small press index by Gary Usher.

Just for fun I tracked two primary documents. Vojtko's blade of grass, trapped under tape, still looks pretty good. Also, I dug up the actual letter from Working Mother, representing one of CLG's proudest moments.
