May, 1985. In heavy rotation on FM radio, and on MTV, is 'Don't You (Forget About Me)' by Simple Minds.
The latest issue of Heavy Metal magazine features a front cover by Liberatore, and a back cover by Michael Uman.
The Dossier section has a number of noteworthy columns.
Leading off is a (disappointingly brief) interview with William Gibson, with a photograph of the author - at that time fast becoming a sf rock star - in which he looks very much like the British musician Thomas Dolby.....Gibson makes a remarkably accurate prediction in the final sentence of the interview.
Thomas Dolby
Lou Stathis switches from 'rok' criticism to coverage of underground comix. But he stays as pretentious as ever.
The Video column features some films that are quite obscure.... I have never heard of any of these............'Fleshburn' ?! 'Night of the Bloody Apes' ?!
The remaining Dossier contents runs the gamut of sf and comic reviews, to an encounter with a Dominatrix (!) that in all likelihood was fabricated. But you be the judge.
