    high, guys,

    wow, this has become some party, eh?! ;-)

    Hey, it's Tom Stockman of THE SHOCK REVIEW! Welcome back to the Temple! We actually traded e-mails a few years ago -- I bought a couple of one-sheets or pressbooks from you on eBay (can't remember what now). I still have all of my SHOCK REVIEW issues also.

    Yes, I'm still around. I write a lot at wearemoviegeeks.com. I'll think I'll put some of those old TEMPLE OF SCHLOCKs up on ebay! :)

    Funny, that Gaither illustration on #23: he gave me that as a Disturbed t-shirt design around the same time.

    Hi Chris,
    I'm in the middle of reading thru XEROX FEROX and what an awesome book it is!!! I totally love the interviews with all these old zinesters (including you). I too published a zine in the early 90s and another once in the early 2000s. I'll put a link to a full upload of issue #1 down below. Anyhoo, reading the book is as frustrating as it is great because NOW I WANT TO READ ALL THOSE ZINES! I did get hold of some of them back in the day but I was in the UK (and later Denmark) when I got into film zines and import prices (and postage from around the world) were a killer even back then. What I'm trying to say is, it's awesome to see the old ToS covers... but how about putting the entire issues up on the blog as well, pleeease! Either as scans or PDF files. It would be pretty fucken great.
    Yours sincerely
    Jack J
