Alan Moore's Final Maxwell The Magic Cat, In The Final Northants Herald & Post

The Northants Herald & Post is a free weekly newspaper serving the Northampton district in the UK. After forty years, this week saw it's last issue published.

But in a "why the hell not", they gave the editorial reigns of the last issue to the Northampton Arts Lab to publish, well, what the hell they wanted. Including a page from longtime Arts Lab contributor and funder, Alan Moore. Who wrote an editorial for the issue, and wrote and drew a final Maxwell The Magic Cat strip, the cartoon he drew thirty-five years ago for the paper, collected later here.

And a shout to go out and make your own newspaper.

The entire final issue, which could be seen as a special extra issue of Dodgem Logic, can be found here.

The Arts Lab can be found here.

And while the website for the paper has gone, the Facebook page is still working and being updated here.
