Back where it all started - the very first issue. With the last Sam paper magazine dying off over a year and a half ago I felt it was time to fill the gap. Sam Revival does just that!

This launch issue is 44 pages in size, and is full of articles, programs, news, reviews, tips, hacking and more.

Thanks go out to the contributors who wrote articles and reviews with only a few weeks notice! Feature articles include the start of a coding series from Adrian Brown - looking at how Comet assembler stores its files for later use with compiled sprites.

My own articles include a look at 'Total Immersion Sound Worlds', routines for enhanced surround sound with the Quazar Surround soundcard, and a hardware fix for the shadow that can appear on the Sam's video display.

Hints and tips section looks at Stratosphere, and Waterworks.

This issue of Sam Revival costs £2.00 (UK), or £2.80 (with EU postage).
