Phew! Anime Expo 97 may be over, but for EX the work had barely begun! The transcribing of interview notes, scanning of the convention footage, and just the usual articles in general took us more time than we had thought. Thanks for bearing with us. For those of you who were at the EX panel at Anime Expo: thanks for showing up and showing us your support! We had the EX CDROM on display at the panel, and so far the response has been very positive. Next issue, we'll bring you more coverage from Anime Expo, plus a surprise interview. So long, and see you in six! Yours Truly, Keith Rhee Assistant Publisher/Design Editor
