M.A.G.I.C. Piglets from 1991

Somebody roamed the halls and lurked through some parties at ThunderCon 1 and reaped a bunch of comments that sound pretty silly when quoted out of context.

They probably sounded even sillier IN context!  (As you should know, ThunderCon 1 was held May 31-June 1-2, 1991 at the glitzy Central Plaza Hotel in OKC.)

Don't forget to investigate the topic "ThunderCon" for more fun facts about LMC!

  

The Rest of ThunderCon 1's Program Book!

As you'll recall, ThunderCon 1 (Larry's Media Con) was held May 31, June 1-2, 1991.

 The Quantum Leap zine was worked on by our still-current SoonerCon guest/panelist Julie Barrett.

 Seems to me that what was called IFGS in 1992 is known nowadays as LARPing!

 I can assure you that the above ad has expired.

Above is the inside rear cover.

This is the back cover of the Program Book.  Yes, ThunderCon 2 roared down the Okie plains the next year.  You'll have to wait awhile to see what happened then ...

Thanks for stopping by!
 

The First Half of ThunderCon 1 (1991) Program Book

 Spiffy art by Kevin Hopkins.

 Also known as "Larry's Media Con," ThunderCon was established as a balance to SoonerCon, which was a "lit con," by design, at the time.

 Boy, wasn't he skinny in 1991?!  Weren't you?

And by the way, Serendipity, the club whose ad is above, is still alive and thrilling!

Fun for all!
 

The January 1991 GALACTIC GAZETTE

On page 2 you can read the officers for 1991.  There's lots of coverage of the upcoming ThunderCon 1.

The "ThunderPage" logo at the top of the page was my own device ...

The poor contrast of some images is acknowledged, but that's all we got!  PS yes, that's Gerald "Captain Coconut" Burton making a cameo appearance in the cartoon on the last page.

See ya round the galaxy!
 

What to Do at ThunderCon 1

This is the programming schedule.

The original is two columns on a vertical 14-x-17-inch sheet.  The Teddy Harvia cartoon above takes up about a third of the second page.  No, there's not a caption.  Why don't you write one?

See you soon with more from May-June, 1991!
