Spectre, a 1979 UK D&D zine with a sharkman on the cover of the first issue. #wereshark

Originally shared by Allan Grohe

I picked up the first two issues of the UK D&D zine "Spectre" recently, and #1 (August 1979) mentions an upcoming "massive scenario" entitled "Knights Keep"---to be published later that year. The 2nd issue mentions a third issue being in the works in two months (and it includes part 2 of a scenario begun in #2 too).

Do any of UK folks know how many issues were printed in Spectre's run, and whether Knights Keep was ever published?

  4. Thanks Allan and Zach. That is a very cute shark man. Drawing any kind of shark creature face on is hard, and probably a bad idea.
