Issue Notes

There was a mix-up at the printers when issue 6 of Strip was originally printed. It was printed and distributed on sub-standard paper. An apology was issued for the situation in issue 7. Issue 6 was then reprinted on the correct paper stock and given away free with issue 9 (called "Complimentary Reissue," see cover cover for issue #9 uploaded there). (Information from Zeg Dalek, November 27, 2010.)
