Zenith/Trivia


 * Keep Circulating the Tapes: Zenith has been out of print for almost twenty years, and, because of complicated legal issues surrounding the copyrights, will probably stay that way for a while. The original printings of the trade paperback collections currently go up for hundreds of dollars on Internet auction sites (the original issues of 2000 A.D. are somewhat cheaper)
 * Old Shame: Peter St John seems genuinely ashamed of having been the super-hippy Mandala in the 60's; Being such a prominent anti-establishment figure would indeed have been a very unusual history for a Conservative minister in the Margaret Thatcher era of Real Life, but given that absolutely everybody knows he was Mandala, and that the press never seem to mention him without pointing it out, it goes far beyond fear of public embarrassment, becoming something much more personal, as if he can't quite believe he ever behaved that way.
