G-FAN #107: Yosuke Natsuki and Goro Mutsumi Share Their Memories!

Cover art for G-FAN #107, which has been printed and on its way to subscribers!

The latest issue of G-FAN has been completed and should be arriving at a mailbox near you very soon! The issue contains a number of features, such as a G-FEST pictorial, J.D.'s editorial tribute to the late John Fasano, and many others, but readers of this blog should take note of two new interviews in particular.


My lengthy career retrospective interview with Toho star Yosuke Natsuki is published in the new issue. I'm very pleased with how it turned out, and I'm sure you will be, too! Natsuki-san is a lively storyteller who has many memories of Toho Studios from the 1950s, '60s, and beyond.


The current issue also contains my interview with Goro Mutsumi, who appeared in numerous Toho SFX films during the 1970s. This interview is much longer and more in-depth than our previous one (conducted via correspondence about five years ago) and covers his career in detail. Fans of '70s Toho tokusatsu will not want to miss out on Mutsumi-san's recollections!

RIP, John Fasano

Writer-director John Fasano gives me a genuine work of art in July 2012 in Los Angeles.

Word just came that filmmaker John Fasano passed away in his sleep last night. John was a big Godzilla fan and has contributed a substantial amount of art to G-FAN magazine in recent years. He was also a friend, whom I always enjoyed speaking with about monster movies. John was incredibly talented and passionate, and I'm shocked at his passing. This news will take a long time to process.

RIP, John Fasano. I'll miss you every day for the rest of my life.
