Fuck yeah! Wasn't that something special? We know, we know—fifty stories, at (mostly) three a day in however many days, means a lot of us are still reading these beauties, but it's the achievement that matters.

We hit fifty fucking issues of Tevun-Krus! There once was a time when we didn't think we'd even get around to issue two, and a time after that when our very first Best-Of—TKX, the tenth issue—was but a whiff of burnt circuitry coming from a faraway planet light-years away.

But we persevered. With your help. Whether you're a reader or a writer—or both—it's because of you, 'troopers, that we've managed to get to this incredible point.

Up next we've got the annual Christmas issue—this time around it's A Very Post-Apocalyptic Christmas. We put it to a vote, and that's the theme that won. Look for that shortly.

And it's probably time to announce our plans for 2018, yeah?

Here's what we've got lined up for all you sci-fi freaks:

February 18th: TK52 International II - We had a lot of fun with a multi-language issue in 2017, so we're doing it again!

March 4th: TK53 Return to First Contact - Yep, First Contact again. Seems sensible as it was the first ever issue

April 1st: TK54 OceanPunk - Should be a fun one. Water-based sci-fi!

May 4th: TK55 May the Fourth Be With You - A Space Opera/Star Wars special!

June 3rd: TK56 BonePunk - Exactly what it sounds like. Bone tech!

July 1st: TK57 Colonization - Sure this one doesn't require explanation!

August 5th: TK58 The Antihero Special - All about antiheroes

September 2nd: TK59 SpacePunk - Space is an ocean. Treat it as such!

October 7th: TK60 Final Contact - Stories detailing the final time contact occurs

November 11th: TK61 Remembrance Day Special - Whatever it's called throughout the world. A Military SF special

December 2nd: TK62 Best of 2018 - We'll be going with the Best of '16 style for this one. Small, exclusive, awesome.

December 21st: TK63 Xmas 2018 - The floor's open. Theme suggestions are welcome!

Sound good, 'troopers? We'll be putting up a 2018 thread to, as usual, keep track of who wants to do what and create discussion! Keep an eye out for that.
