NOVEMBER 1998
ISSUE ONE

As I've been putting this issue together I seem to have written hundreds of introductions in my head. But now when it comes down to actually doing it, I've got nothing to say. Graf needs no introduction .. so fuck it, it's not going to get one.

This very first issue of N-igma features bucket loads of trains and walls .. some you may have seen before, others I know you won't. At the last count, there are about 90 trains and 200 walls spread over 22 pages. This is set to change every 2 months with the next issue of N-igma due to hit your screens on the 31st January.

If you've got something to say, some shit to contribute or need a hook-up, then drop me an email. At the very least, tell me what you think of this new venture.
