Wow, the end of an era.  I never missed an issue from about 1985 to about 1988 (age 12 to 15).  Bought them sporadically after that, I'll be honest haven't bought one in many years because of the cover price.  Sadly everything is already online much earlier (duh).  I still have my old issues, and I leaf through them from time to time.  It was a great mag in the 80's and 90's, but much like everything else print-wise, hard to keep it goin!

Wow! I remember reading this throughout the 1980s.  Really print media continues to take a hit in this new landscape. I wonder if Fangoria will do what Cracked did and have just an online presence?

Sad.  They have a booth every SDCC. 

I guess not anymore.

I started to read it during the slasher film resurgence in '96 (Scream.) Read it for a full two years or so. It had a steep price which led me to drop it eventually.

But, it lasted 19 more years without me.

Sad to see it go

Is Starlog still around?

I discovered it with the epic 10th Anniversary of Star Wars issue back in '87, and that issue is part of what inspired me to start collecting comics. It was also how my friends & I kept up with the latest gossip re. Star Trek: The Next Generation.

Starlog has been gone since 2009. A shame some real good issues with it. 

Print Media s dying,especially magazines and newspapers.
