The early issues stated the previous month on them, as they covered the news from that month... so this was actually released middle of October 1996, making it almost 15 years exactly since this was first printed up at a photocopy shop near South Brisbane, and posted out to the members (I remember rushing to get it into the mail before the end of the day).

This issue was typed up at Uni, where I was studying at the time, because I didn't yet have my first computer.
I used a colour photocopy of the a UK comic mast-head, with a colour photocopy of Outback from somewhere around issue #100 of the UK comic... to make the title banner of our first issue.
After that issue, it was all done on computer and a copy was printed out to be photocopied.

So here it is, finally, right on our 15th Anniversary month - Issue #1 of our Newsletter. (don't get too excited, it wasn't exactly a masterpiece)
