So, here are some snippets of the advertising packet or quotes from replies I wrote yesterday:* Gygax Magazine will be released next month, December 2012.* The magazine will be available in both print and digital formats.* The name Gygax Magazine refers to Ernie and Luke.* We registered the TSR trademark in 2011, but we are a new company, and not associated with the original TSR or Wizards of the Coast.* Gygax Magazine will cover a wide variety of RPGs and strategy games, focusing on the games of today while preserving the traditions and history of the industry.* We'd prefer to talk more about the contents of the first issue when it's available, but we hope people will love it.We are in no way legally connected to any company in existence before 2011. Gary's widow owns all of his IP and has already shown by her overt hostility that it is not worth going there.

There will be a limited number of online seats available to join the in-store games via the virtual tabletop Roll20.
