 Grell is indeed using materials that enable First to reproduce his 
 art directly from pencils.  That wouldn't be bad if Grell would put
 some time into the book, but the increase in price and the decline in
 the art are making me consider dropping SABLE from my 'buy' list.   
 Another thing that bugs me about SABLE is the woman who answers the 
 questions in the lettercol.  Who is she?  She never has anything worth- 
 while to say.
