As explained by former ToyFare Editor, @justinaclin.com on The Wizard Files this week, covering the International Toy Fair each year was the BIG issue for the staff. Here's a look at the fun from the 2006 event.

As discussed during our recent interview, @justinaclin.com and the ToyFare editorial staff expanded the scope of the magazine to general pop culture and here's the interview with David X. Cohen of #Futurama fame about the return of the series in 2007.

As discussed on the podcast, @justinaclin.com was Editor of ToyFare through its failed, forced transition into a digital publication called WizardWorld and preserved the final “lost” Twisted ToyFare Theatre strip on his website here www.justinaclin.com/post/the-las...

Here is the Twisted ToyFare Theatre from ToyFare issue 62 where our recent guest, @justinaclin.com contributed a joke ("The Power of Grayskull compels you!") that caught the attention of Editor-In-Chief, Pat McCallum and led to Justin writing future TTT stories for nearly a decade.
