Perhaps published with a lot more enthusiasm than business acumen, the monster makers of Topanga Canyon would only get one more of these fun 'zines out before it folded. The bugaboo of issues with their printer and more than likely, better-paying work opportunities forced the end of one of the most interesting monster 'zines to com out of the 1960's.

These images are from a scan of a badly-preserved copy. The fading of the tinted pages didn't help, either I've tried to clean them up a bit and, alas, that's the best I could do.

Part 2 tomorrow!
