Dear people,
I just got your April issue and have several
questions and comments.

First, any news on when, if ever, Phil Foglio's
collection of "What's New?" is going to be
published?

I hate to disappoint Kim on his editorial but I
didn't need a mirror to read it.

Is Roger Raupp ever going to start putting
hidden, runic messages into his drawings again?

Have you ever thought about putting out a
collection of past covers?

A game-related question: If a character has all
the fingers of one hand amputated and puts a
ring of regeneration on each one, will each one
grow into a clone of the owner of the fingers?

Have you ever gotten a letter with so many
questions that you decided not to print it?

If not, will you set a precedent with this one?

Would you like me to end the letter here?

Dear person,
First, what collection?

That's okay I didn?t need a mirror to write it.

What hidden messages?

Yes.

Maybe.

No.

No.

If you don't, I will.

Dear Kim Mohan,
I was quite amused to see your April column. I
have always had a soft spot in my heart for backwards
writing; I used to write letters to a friend
backwards to keep her little sisters from reading
them. I had a terrible urge to write this backwards,
but I overcame it; I figure you have better
things to do than stand in front of a mirror deciphering
fan mail.

Yes, I said fan mail. I know your column was
an April Fool's joke; I figured that out early on,
remembering your column two years ago. April
Fool?s or not, though, you have a point: A little
praise never hurt anyone, anyway. I quite enjoy
your columns, and I read every one of them --
usually even before the comics. I think it?s a nice
touch, and it gives the magazine a more personal
feeling.
