    This was bound to happen sooner or later. The magazines were getting thinner and thinner, while staying at the same price. They gutted their price guides in favor of more shit articles. Websites like ComicsPriceGuide.com made this magazine obsolete. And the internet made up for the 'up to date' interviews and news. Its just been a long time coming.

    However, it does bring about this news:

    Same here. It was the only reason why I got the magazine. And the Big Shots. Those were great too.

    		 Apparently I missed this thread and mine got locked.

    Anyway, this is indeed crappy news, but we live in an age that no longer NEEDS printed news.

    		 Wizard and Toyfare turned into rags a long time ago. Gareb Shamus is a dick anyway.

    		 Twisted Toyfare theater is awesome, I have the volume sets.

    Too bad, I actually really liked Toyfare, myself. I even had a two year subscription to them, glad I didn't renew it now.
