T. Campbell writes in to announce that he's revived his long-running webcomic, Fans: "One of the first science-fiction webcomics, "Fans," returned this February. The premise's appeal is pretty obvious: science-fiction fans are the ones most qualified to save the world from science-fictiony threats. From such beginnings, the series has pushed outward in all directions, mixing humor and intensity, science-fiction and fantasy, historical and pop-cultural references, tributes to the power of imagination and portraits of flawed dreamers. The latest stories have seen the creation of a fan-based armed services division, and the beginnings of a menage a trois between three central characters. With over 1600 installments, the series is a time-wasting treat for fans everywhere. Hope you enjoy!"
