I think I remember this 'zine, I'd heard of it though I wasn't a subscriber--think you were no longer publishing by the time I got into fandom.  But a friend of mine I believe WAS a subscriber.  ;)

It seems to me that you have the actors' faces drawn perfectly!!  They are very recognizable.  Simply wonderful.  Sure, love to see more.

  I'd definately be interested in seeing more.  I used to subscribe to your zine and remember the Manhattan Shadows Cons fondly.  Any chance we might see another MS?

I attended one Manhattan Shadows con in April 1986 I think it was, at the Halloren (sp?) House which is now a Marriott or something.  It was a fun con.

Nope, Howlers was drawn by Bill Branch.  HILARIOUS comics btw, they truly were 'howlers'!  ;)  Wish he'd drawn more but I believe he left fandom shortly after producering that one comic.
