InterAction Issue 34 (Spring 1998) Complete re-work and edit from original scan or Roark406.

This issue surprised me when I first saw it. The first issue of Wizard I bought as a kid was #10, I think, and by then it was full color on glossy pages throughout. But this first issue utilizes mostly two color printing, and the middle price guide section was on newsprint. Of course, Wizard was actually self-published by Gareb Shamus, making this essentially a fanzine that made good. It started out as a newsletter given to customers at the comic book and trading card shop in which he worked (owned by his parents), and eventually blossomed into this first issue of the magazine you're about to download. It was an instant success, and with profits poured back into the mag, would very quickly take on a much more high-gloss professional sheen and be published around the world. So at any rate, anyone unfamiliar with Wizard should be aware that this is very much Wizard 1.0, and later issues will look significantly different.
