As fara as I know, the unpublished version of THE BOX has no relation (other than name and subject matter) with the really rather good (but very shortlived) Haymarket magazine of the same name that appeared, for three issues over six months, in 1997.
It joins the list of never-published or shortlived TV magazines that also includes Marvel UK's PRIMETIME (just a single special, again unrelated to this magazine, published before the magazine department was closed) and a DWB/ DREAMWATCH spin-off the details of which I must unearth and share some day.
By co-incidence, my recent letter in SIGHT&SOUND had the header of ' box barrage. '
ReplyDeleteThat DWB/DREAMWATCH spin-off sounds most intriguing, was it actually published ?
Nope. It was never published. From memory (and, remember, this was decades ago) it was announced in the last issue of DWB as a companion to DREAMWATCH. I figure that one magazine, and the spin-off convention and Shakedown, proved to be more than enough to cope with. I will see if I can unearth the details again some day.
