Now available for ordering (and showing up soon in your local comic shop's box if you ordered from Diamond Previews oh-so-many months ago) is the latest issue of CINEMA RETRO. This issue promises to have much more monster goodness than the previous couple of issues -- perhaps because of the Halloween season?
