SPACE: ABOVE AND BEYOND NEWS
General
The April issue of Starlog (#249) has a good three-page story on Glen
Morgan and Jim Wong, written by Marc Shapiro. It focuses mostly on Space
but also on The X-Files. There's color photos of the Wild Cards and McQueen,
as well as quotes from Morgan and Wong. The article is quoted as saying:
"Space", however, isn't completely, utterly, totally dead. The show is now
airing in reruns on the Sci-Fi Channel and in overseas markets. And the
release of "Starship Troopers" -- its literary source a precursor to "Space:
Above and Beyond" -- might, along with the current aggressive fan-led
campaign, spawn a "Space" revival.
