In addition to <a href="http://www.rebelscum.com/marvelcomics7.asp">cover stories</a> like "Linda Ronstadt: Rock's Superwoman" and "Is Meat Loaf the Cutest Cultural Development Since the Pickle?", <em>Pizzazz</em> published what is arguably the very first addition to the Star Wars <a href="http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Expanded_Universe">Expanded Universe</a> - a serialized comic titled <a href="http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/The_Keeper%27s_World">"The Keeper's World"</a>. Appearing in October 1977, only 5 months after the theatrical release of what was not yet known as <em>Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope</em>, it comfortably pre-dates Alan Dean Foster's <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Splinter_of_the_Mind%27s_Eye"><em>Splinter of the Mind's Eye</em></a> (March 1978) and even Marvel's own <a href="http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Star_Wars_7:_New_Planets%2C_New_Perils"><em>Star Wars</em> #7</a> comic (January 1978). <small><a href="http://www.metafilter.com/78332/OldBenFilter-What-if-ObiWan-went-Sith">(previously)</a></small> tag:metafilter.com,2009:site.79171 Sat, 14 Feb 2009 14:16:43 -0800 comics expandeduniverse lindarondstadt magazine marvelcomics meatloaf starwars Joe Beese http://www.metafilter.com/74443/You%2Dwanna%2Drock%2Dn%2Droll%2Dor%2Dyou%2Dwanna%2Dthrow%2Dstuff Last weekend, (22-24 August 2008) saw the fantastic <a href="http://www.readingfestival.com/home/" title="official">Reading Festival</a> take place (<a href="http://www.fatreg.com/timeline.html" title="badly formatted but great flyers">dodgy timeline</a>). Emerging from the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Jazz_and_Blues_Festival" title="yeah man">National Jazz Festival</a> in 1961, it mutated into the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reading_and_Leeds_Festivals" title="wiki">National Jazz, Blues and Rock Festival festival in the 70s</a>, and on into the eclectic festival it is today. My personal faves were <a href="http://archivedmusicpress.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/advertisment-for-the-reading-festival-3rd-june-1989.jpg" title="flyer">1989</a> and <a href="http://www.fatreg.com/PicsRdg92/lineup92.html" title="line-up">1992</a>, but the best moment was seeing <a href="http://www.virginmedia.com/music/pictures/festivals/worst-festival-sets.php?ssid=4" title="hahahahahahahahahaha">Meatloaf bottled off stage in 1988</a>!
