One From The Vaults

I've recently been scanning material from my fanzine OWARI, for eventual inclusion on the blog of the same name. One of the artifacts I unearthed was this short piece that appeared in OWARI #6 (October 1999).

This was intended to promote the planned ROJ revival that didn't come to pass. It is mostly notable in that it is the first published ROJ piece that was written entirely by me. As you may notice, it follows the continuity of the story as originally conceived by Lewis Smith and presented in the pages of OWARI #2 and #3. That technically makes it part of the apocrypha, but I consider it more of a curio than anything else.

I could have just retyped this for presentation here, but it would have lost some of its crude fanzine charm in the transition. Ergo, I have reproduced it exactly the way you would have seen it in OWARI #6 waaay back in 1999-2000.
