The Phil & Dixie strips are gathered in 3 volumes, available on Amazon. Search for the author, Phil Foglio.

Also, What’s New with Phil & Dixie is currently being published on the web, one strip a week, every Sunday.

I bought the last April edition and I was disappointed in the lack of April foolery. Those issues for the '80s were pure gold. Especially some of those letters from fans they printed.

[QUOTE=slortar]  
…Nothing touches what Dragon was like to me as a kid in the 80’s, though. Each issue was like a postcard from another world, a world composed of pure awesome. I’d pour [pore] over each one for weeks. No matter how pointless the articles seemed in retrospect, I loved every word. Druid orisons, sumo wrestlers, the monster writeups, hell even the articles for product lines I didn’t have access to, like the Marvel Universe items were riveting. Saddens me a little to find that a) the line is ending and b) the magazine took a dive in quality in recent years.

My thoughts exactly. When I was really, really into AD&D in junior high, _Dragon_ was a monthly tablet of holy writ - and fun, too!

Remember those “Ecology of the [Whatevermonster]” articles? They could take some of the most idiot and silly monsters (Cloakers, anyone) and make them interesting.
