Temple Classic Cover 24 (c) Kyle Kimmons

This issue marked the departure of the Temple's founding member, Kyle Kimmons, who had briefly returned as Central Mailer to help keep things on track.  He did pop into the Temple on a few occasions after, but never stayed long.

I'm sure he's still out there somewhere, clad in a Zorro mask, waxing his moustache and fighting crime.

Temple Classic Cover 22 (c) Stuart Giddings

A jolly marvelous redesign of me and Stu's Nevada Tombs character, who appeared in 'The Teksas Chainstore Massacre', which was probably our most popular strip. 

Chainstore Massacre was published in 6 different comics (including Meanwhile, CAOF and Violent), and was finally given its last outing in Dave Candlish' Paragon a few years back.  It can still be viewed online here:

This issue also came with an alternative cover by manga artist Laura Watton, which I'll have to try and dig out at some point.

Temple Classic Cover 20 (c) Anthony Smith

  

Anthony Smith was a fantastic cartoonist, inker and also drew erotic images which you may have been able to deduce from this cover.  

Not sure what he's up to these days, but hopefully it includes lots of arty things.
