stupid question?!

[Doug Holgate]

I've just re-read all my SIP trades...and after logging on here have realised that Issue #33 does'nt appear in any of them. (Being a trade person i don't have any of the single issues.)
Also noted that there was some general dislike of this particular issue and that it appears as a one-shot in the episode guide.
Anyone want to fill me in on what i'm missing out on??
(Oh also what were the Molly and Poo and issue 93298 one-shots all about??)
cheers,
Dougie!!

issue thirty-three was a summer fun issue that wasn't about the current story. its a good issue; francine and katchoo are superheros and freddie kills everyone in the world then are sent to heaven's gate to be judged where they argue if the cartoonist [ god ] is real or did the universe expand from a single drop of ink. its an amusing issue but at the time the story was so tense many people were bothered over the timing of its release. oh, its also in colour.

Issue #93298 is Poems and Lyrics from the series from 1993-1998.

As for Molly and Poo...the following is a great summary from an old SIP FAQ page (circa Volume 3 Issue 2)
-------------------------------------------
Who are Molly and Poo?

Along with the main contents of SiP Terry Moore tells the story of Molly and Poo. The story is conveyed via a series of letters. The first of which appeared in the regular series issue number 2. This first letter details the events of an evening out with Molly and Poo at a present day theatre production. The second letter in issue number 3 seems to place Molly and Poo somewhere in Victorian England. There are letters contained in almost every issue.

In August, 1996,SiP v#2 isuue #14 entitled Molly and Poo, A Collection of Moments furthered the story of Molly and Poo. It took stories and letters that have already been published within the pages of SiP issues and expanded them into a stand alone piece of work. They tell the tale of an woman and her escapist desires of trying to find herself within the writings of gothic eroticism.

Some of the letters originally printed in SiP have been altered to more align themselves with the whole that is the story of Molly and Poo. Alone they are beautiful expressions of an exploration in story telling. Collected (and altered) they are the story that Terry had been trying to tell. Think of the original letters as an artists sketch pad and the final story as the finished bit of canvas.
