Hiya fellaz,

        I hope you enjoyed this issue. I'm sure you did.  You'll probably say
the  same thing as everyone else:  " Whoa man,  this is  wicked but  it's too
damn short!".  Here's my answer: "Would you prefer  a 3-meg comic once a year
or 2 or 3 shorter comics instead?"

        Anyhow, I'm sorry for releasing one month later than planned. I had a
major problem: Hard disk crash. Happens when you expect it the least. No need
to tell you all  the important stuff i lost.  Next issue will be  out in less
than 6 months, don't worry.


                            ú-ú No More ACiD ú-ú

        GrimScum isn't affiliated  with ACiD anymore.  I am proud to announce
you that  we are  now part  of iCE  (Insane Creators Enterprises).   Why this
radical change? Simply because almost all GrimScum members are in iCE now.


                       ú-ú The Dark Side Of The Web ú-ú

        I finished the Grim Scum web page a couple of months ago. You can get
the first issue from it (http://www.ice.org/~assassin).  It's an old page but
I'm gonna change a lot of things as soon as I get my internet account working
again. I'll also add a photo album on it.


                             ú-ú Hidden What? ú-ú

        Sound.   This is one of the numerous new features in the new GrimScum
Interface.  There are three hidden sounds in this issue.  Try to find them by
moving your mouse on the screen.   When the cursor changes to a speaker, just
lay your finger,  hammer or whatever you want on your mouse's left button and
listen carefully.


                                ú-ú Facts ú-ú

I'd like you to know that we're not doing this for money, drugs or whatever.
This is only for the love of art.

FunFact: As you probably noticed, this issue fits on a 1.44 megs disk so feel
free to distribute the comic wherever you want to!


                               ú-ú Da Crew ú-ú

If you're interested in joining  the GrimScum Crew as a writer, musician, vga
artist, distro site or anything, email Overbored (ovrbored@ice.org)  for more
info.  Also, i  need someone  to help me  with colouring,  so  if you  are an
EXPERIENCED vga artist contact Overbored about it. We need a mailing list, so
if you can set one up for us, then again email Overbored.
