    Disappointing article.

    Only page six was of any interest. (Ok… the Saturnesqe satelite.)

    4: Ok.
    5: A storyboard illustration was the best image they could find?
    (I’m thinking of getting that DVD.)
    6: Wings? On the Moon? It’s an honest mistake I suppose.
    ‘Moon’ and ‘Mars’ both begin with the letter M.
