Once upon a time in the UK, in November 1994 a chap called Graham Pike from Nelson in Lancashire started a Neo Geo Fanzine called New Earth. UK members may recall seeing issues for sale at Raven games or Loaded Consoles. Anyhow, there were 47 issues in total, they ran from November 94 to December 98 and for a home made fanzine they were pretty good.
I once met Graham and bought various neo posters and the like from him as well as several issues of the fanzine. Anyhow, I think I sold those copies back in 2002 but the recent thread on 'was there a neo-geo magazine' prompted a search to see what I could find. I still have some letters from Graham - hand written stuff from way back but thanks to Unite2k (Cedric) we have a couple of copies for download.
Once issue is from 95 and one from 96, they are available here:

It's a shame Graham moved from his original address in around 2002 as I reckon he will still have the originals. If we could track him down (I think he's in the Colne area of Lancashire), it would be great to a get a complete print run.
Anyhow, enjoy and thanks again to Unite2k
