Remember the character Sinister Dexter is the copy right of 2000AD. So caution when using that name that you have no links to it.

Interesting. I've been using it as an internet sig since the late 90s based off the idea of Left/Right in Latin. It is a pun on a political argument I used to engage in regularly (the irrelevance of Left/Right divides in modern politics). I didn't even know there was a comic character of that name.

Regardless, it's just an internet handle, hardly something for them to get worked up over.

Sorry for the threadomancy, but the links for Bl!tz e-zine issues seem to be broken...
Does anyone know if they are stored somewhere, easy to get?
Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Axt.

I believe I do... in an old laptop that blue screened on me last month. :roll:

I plan on getting it back to work asap, but until there I wanted to show those to a mate, and haven't found them anywhere. :|
