Starburst was a film and TV magazine launched after Star Wars took off. TVSiFi monthly was a larger magazine that covered the TV shows I was into at the time, Space 1999, Star Trek Doctor Who and the Bionics series.
I got the first issue of Science Fiction Monthly with Discovery on the cover, they had some lovely poster sized prints in them. I recall buying Starburst from issue 1 too, all long gone now. Bill
I collected TV Sci Fi monthly and Starburst at the time.
ReplyDeleteDid you keep hold of them Kev?
DeleteNo, I didn't . I wish I'd kept TV sci fi monthly, but I'm not bothered about Starburst.
DeleteWhy, what was the difference Kev?

DeleteOmni was a favourite of mine in my late teens. I used to get the best party kitchen facts ever from it!

ReplyDeleteI still have some examples of most of these mags/specials somewhere, along with copies of Starlog, and Fangoria.
