There are two unusual crossovers in this issue: another Monkees story, and a very odd story in which Max and Deeta from Deathwatch try out the combat grounds and find themselves competing at auditions for a musical comedy, namely High Society (presumably because Steven Pacey was in a well-received stage production of same). It's also a sort-of Trek crossover: the directors running the auditions for the play are two guys named Len and Bill, who sound strangely familiar. :)

There's a short but nice Gan story, for you Gan fans.

"Not in Your Wildest Dreams" is an it-was-all-a-dream story even more extreme than Avon's 8.

There's only one romance in this issue, but it's a doozy: moon disc/sopron. In a way, I'm giving away too much by revealing that, but oh well. The plot: Cally's moon disc disappears. She and Vila eventually discover it in Avon's cabin, curled up with the Sopron. A very sweet story in its kinky little way. :)
