"It’s a delight to behold one of the most professional fan zines in the UK today. With none other than supernatural supremo HP Lovecraft scripting, Calum Iain MacIver uses panel arrangements to enforce dimensions. A number of years ago, Caliber covered "The House In The Picture", these manuscripts become maps, illumination for the soul. MacIver’s rendering of this strip is religiously and respectfully faithful, reconstruction articulate. marvel as He Works The Page. Emphasisation of putrid boils (alerts by shade) mark boundaries with medusa weave, good measure.
     ""The Picture In The House" artcraft, is well wicked and demands your attention scholar lover. This is classic mass cartooning , and just the first ten pages. Complementing this opening salvo the zine is chocfull of Lovecraft-related writings: film reviews, film festival and zine reportage, and a thorough comprehensive article on Ditko and lee’s Dr. Strange. Highly Highly Recommended. 32 pages, A4 size, costs £2 plus p&p. From Calum Iain MacIver, 1 Brookside, Clachamish, Porttree, Isle Of Skye, Scotland, IV51 9NY.
