Inquest #150: Bittersweet Special Issue

Branded across the front of every copy of Inquest Gamer #150 (on the shelves now) is the promise of a super special anniversary issue, full of exclusive premiers, free stuff, and large fonts. What it doesn't say, however, is that #150 is also the final issue of Inquest. It's kind of like dying on your birthday. Turns out, it hasn't been a good year for magazine.

Not citing the reasons for the decisions—though magazine publishing is well known to be a treacherous, thankless, unprofitable trial—Wizard COO and President, Fred Pierce, says Wizard Entertainment "will continue to support gaming in our industry leading magazines, online and at our conventions. We thank our dedicated staff for all their hard work, as well as our partners and readership for their loyal support."

Guess I'll be getting my Yu-Gi-Oh pricelists and snarky Magic: The Gathering photoshops from the internet like the rest of plebs now. Sad.
