Issue 93 December 1989
Jim "Scaredy Cat" Douglas
With Ghostbuster fever in the office most of the SU team are making ghostly woo wooing noises and filling our mouths with blood capsules. Spazzy Jim, however, is turning into a human jelly (and you all thought he was really hard didn't you?) This is him just before he hid under the desk shouting "stop it you lot, you know I don't like the dark"
Alison "Heads Up!" Skeat
Entering in Ghostbuster fever like a good 'un, Al actually agreed to have her head sawn off (she'll do anything for a laugh, that one - Jim) for our photographer. We are at the mo putting her head back together with Pritt stick and staples - is there a paramedic in the house?
Tim "Creeping Terror" Noonan
After 15 pints of shandy at his local The Kosh and Headbutt, and 32 pints of curry from his fave "restaurant" Tim finds he has a bad case of biryani botty and terrifies the rest of the team with his impression of a Hallowe'en pumpkin head
Garth "Nosferatu" Sumpter
A ruddy spooky weirdo this one. Garthy runs around EMAP towers, fangs at the ready, biting the office cat and wiping the blood on the roller towel in the loo (geross - all SU readers). That's on any normal day at work, but since Ghostbuster fever he's gone completely off his nut and killed everyone ... (but not really)

MEGATAPE 22

A thoroughly beezer event this month. We've got you an entirely gobsmacking playable demo of the sequel to Operation Wolf, Operation Thunderbolt. You can sample for yourselves the delights of the game most people are predicting will be this year's number one. There's also an entirely complete and fully lovely adventure called The Lost City which will have you round the twist with frustration in a jiffy.
