Hello All!!

Just to let you know that, due to some previous software issues now
being successfully resolved, a new back AFICIONADO issue has been
made available on PDF/CD-R disc. And it's one of our best, too!! The
double issue 8/9 from Summer 2005-64 pages and packed with nearly
400 photos.

Here's some info as to what's in it:

INTO THE FIRE- REVENGE OF THE SITH: Scott Weller's exhaustive nine
page review of the final film of the Prequel Trilogy. Did it deliver
the goods? This feature is packed with nearly 100 photos alone.

all the most well known, and perhaps not so well known, cut scenes
from EPISODE III.

the full rundown on the hugely successful US event from 2005.

retro-feature on 1980's imminent first STAR WARS Sequel: THE EMPIRE

THE ALTERNATIVE FACTOR- RETURN OF THE JEDI: Scott Weller looks back
at what could have been from the original story for the 1980 version
of REVENGE OF THE JEDI, when it was first conceived by George Lucas

appeared in STAR WARS AFICIONADO issue fourteen).
