I just bought the seventh issue of the Gunslinger Born (www.marvel.com/darktower) comic at my local store (www.blackdog.de/) and also saw the August 2007 PREVIEWS (http://previews.diamondcomics.com/) catalogue there. It includes comics, toys, and related items scheduled to ship in October 2007.
For some reason in previous issues I never found "Lost: The Official Magazine" listed in its magazine section even though it contains many other publications by Titan Magazines. This time there was ad for issue #13, though! :biggrin:
I only managed to capture a quick snapshot (http://img355.imageshack.us/my.php?image=lostmagazineissue13br4.jpg) with my cell phone so I'm sorry for the poor quality. Anyway, this is what the ad said:

LOST: THE OFFICIAL MAGAZINE #13
This issue takes a look at the dark side of the female leads in an exclusive chat with Evangeline Lily [sic], Elizabeth Mitchell, and Yunjin Kin [sic]. Plus, an exclusive "Dark Territory Special" delves into the mysteries of the island, from the whispers to the smoke monster!
Available in Newsstand and Previews Exclusive cover editions! (Titan) (C: 1-1-2)
Note: Not available in the UK
Newsstand - Magazine, 68pgs., FC .................................................. $6.99
Previews Exclusive - Magazine, 68pgs., FC ..................................... $6.99


The regular cover is supposed to feature Elizabeth Mitchell and Evangeline Lily while the Exclusive edition depicts Desmond!
In addition to that the cover promises an article on "The Hostiles".
I know, it's still a very long way off but this looks like another very enticing issue to me! :smile:

Desmond?? I thought it was supposed to be Charlie! Gah! How'm I going to get that one?

Sounds like an interesting read.

Why the heck isn't it available in the UK?

Desmond?? I thought it was supposed to be Charlie!
Personally I think Charlie - or Jacob ;) - will be on the variant cover of issue #12 due out somewhen next week.

Gah! How'm I going to get that one?
As far as I know you have to (pre-)order them at your local comic store.

Sounds like an interesting read.
I cannot wait for it to be released! :smile:

Why the heck isn't it available in the UK?
I think this just refers to deliveries by Diamond Comic, the publishers of that PREVIEWS catalogue. The UK version is distributed by Titan Magazines UK.

Oh, wait, I'm confused. Issue 13 isn't the yearbook? I guess I'm getting ahead of myself. :D

I know you have to special order them. Thing is, when I went to order the cover with Ben the first time they said Jules was still showing up. When I went back, they said there was no longer an option to by Jules and Ben wasn't showing up. This was after the mag was already in stores!

Your best bet is to look for the special issues on Ebay. Usually there are multiple copies available and at the newsstand price. (plus shipping.)
I'll be glad to do some investigating.( I want to get that issue too and the store where I ordered from before is now out of business so I have to buy it online.)

Oh, wait, I'm confused. Issue 13 isn't the yearbook? I guess I'm getting ahead of myself. :D
Yes, #13 will be the one after the yearbook. :smile:

Yes, I encountered the same problem when I tried to purchase the magazine this way. :rolleyes:
So I finally chose to subscribe as I'm not that much into the variant covers anyway.

Yes, this sounds like a reasonable advice.
By the way, I love your avatar, xgirl! :thumbsup:

Thing is, I don't want every varient cover, but if it's Michael (Ben), HIC or Terry I want it. I have Terry and Michael and really want HIC. So, Xgirl's helping me out. :) She's my bud! :hug:

Wow Juliet and Kate so soon on another cover. What about Hurley, hes only been on it once. It should be his turn again. Oh well, the content inside is all that matters.

Hopefully this issue gives some more info on season 4, since production will have started when this issue is out.

I see.

Good hunting! :smile:

I take comfort in this myself ... ;)

Yes, that'd be awesome!
"Only" two more months ... :rolleyes:

I know only two more months for news, and then even closer to the dvd set release and new season.

Kinda sucks the mag is out every 2 months, that means only 2 issues will actually be out during the airing of season 4. I'd wish it was out every month.

Guys... when is this magazine gonna make an appearance in the UK?, its almost a week late. :frown:

Guys... when is this magazine gonna make an appearance in the UK?, its almost a week late. :frown:
Well, issue #13 is still two months away. :smile:
If you refer to issue #12, though, I also am still waiting for that one ... :frown:
Well, I guess it just evens out the times when the UK version was sent out first and the US fans had to wait lobger for their issues.

In addition to what already was announced in the ad (http://img355.imageshack.us/my.php?image=lostmagazineissue13br4.jpg) the last page of issue #12 clarified which Hostiles will be interviewed in issue #13 (Anybody superstitious about that?): Nestor Carbonell (Live from the set of "Cane"? ;) ), William Mapother, and Andrew Divoff!
As sawyer101 already posted (http://www.thefuselage.com/Threaded/showpost.php?p=1647183&postcount=115) in the Issue #12 (http://www.thefuselage.com/Threaded/showthread.php?t=83360) thread there will be a "Memento Mori" on Boone & Shannon! I cannot wait for that!!!

William's such a sweetie. Can't wait to read his, Nestor's and Andrew's interviews. Why should we be superstitious?

You're more than welcome!
By the way, I just received the following e-mail from customer services:
...
Thank you for your recent email.
I can confirm that the Lost magazine will now be the US version and will be sent to you directly from USA each month.
The delivery time will improve as we are currently looking into the delays.
...I strongly hope that'll turn out to be true. I'm still pretty hung over from the debacle we went through with issue #12! :mad:
EDIT: I just received another one:
...
Thank you for your email.
Unfortunately the UK version is no longer being printed on all the Titan Titles, the magazines are now being imported from the USA.
The next issue of Lost issue #13 goes on sale 1 November 07.
...
Man, that's more than three weeks after October 9, the date given on the final page of issue #12 ... :shakehead: Can't they afford to import them using Air Mail?!

Knew that was going to happen. At least with the LOST magazine they wated until after 11 issues before they did this. With Smallville they started doing this after only 5.

Why should we be superstitious?
Well, there are people suffering from Triskaidekaphobia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triskaidekaphobia) ...

That's a small comfort if you ask me ... I hate needless waiting!

*Wish we had a local comic store here.* And why comic store? C'mon it's not a comic.

Good question, Kate. I wish you could just special order it through a normal bookstore.

Maybe they think that's not a geeky enough place for the likes of us? ;)

:D Maybe so, Hade. Comic book stores are geeky. Unfortunately they aren't always available to everyone.

You're right, of course.
In addition to that I think it's too bad that even Titan Magazines considers itself not responsible for the variant cover issues. I mean, it's their product, isn't it, even though it's supposed to be sold exclusively through comic stores. But still these issues seem so hard to come by ...

What do you mean they don't consider themselves responsible?

What do you mean they don't consider themselves responsible?
I tried to refer to the troubles in obtaining the variant cover editions you reported.
I'm sorry for not being clear enough.

did you get it? i got mine last week,
but its the american version not the uk

That comment was in relation to issue 12 which I got the day it came out... but thanks for asking tho! :hug:

Are there any spoilers in issue 13? Are there posters inside? Who's on the cover of issue 14?

oh right, my bad
has issue 13 reached our fair shores yet?
unfortunately the latest mags usually dont hit my shops for about 3 weeks on average after they are released, :biggrin:

Are there any spoilers in issue 13? Are there posters inside? Who's on the cover of issue 14?

Issue 13 is not out, yet. It's due out next month. Anyway, I have completely forgotten who's on the regular cover, but Desmond is on the varient cover.

Issue 13 must be out, there are scans from the magazine over at DarkUFO's site. As far as I know issue 12 came out in August, which means 13 is due for October.

I have completely forgotten who's on the regular cover, but Desmond is on the varient cover.
Yeah, you gotta set your priorities! ;)
The cover of the regular edition will feature Juliet & Kate (See http://darkufo.blogspot.com/2007/09/new-lost-magazine-cover.html, e.g., please!).

Issue 13 must be out, there are scans from the magazine over at DarkUFO's site.
A few scans always are leaked shortly before the actual publication date ... it's so hard for me to resist and not read these but wait for my own copy of the new issue ...! :rolleyes:

By my calculations issue 13 should be out October 9 next week, according to what issue 12's next issue page says.

I doubt we'd get issue 14 on time for christmas. But issue 14 should be out in December.

Issue 15 may be the season 4 launch issue in Feb, but it might not happen until 16. Darn only one real issue while the airing of season 4 is happening and thats April.

Locke, Des and Ben are my priorites. :D

I received my Issue #13 in the mail today. I was totally shocked. I thought it wasn't supposed to be out until late next week. I haven't had a chance to read it yet though. The subscription service has definately improved since I first ordered the mag.

Oh, you're so lucky!!! Can you please let us know who's on the cover of the next issue, and are there any good spoilers?

Oh, can't wait to get my varient cover. Of course, that will take a bit longer. Good for you, Scarlos. :)

I received my Issue #13 in the mail today.
Thanks a lot for sharing this great news with us!
www.titanmagazines.com/lost already was updated as well: It says there will be an interview with Gregg Nations, an article on the LOST panel at Comic Con, and a Black Smoke poster among other things! :eek2:

The subscription service has definately improved since I first ordered the mag.
It's too bad this doesn't apply to those subscribers living outside the US ... :unhappy:

i'm a bit disappointed with lost mag, they we're at our lost weekend fuselage party in Hollywood a few months ago, and yet so far nothing published about it ??
unless maybe they are holding out for the new year, then review our gathering in time to promote LW2 next year !!! ??

Wow, Bobby! I forgot they were there! Wow. I guess because, like you said, they never covered it. Didn't someone cover how Dondant and Kyuss met up at DLA?

Oh, you're so lucky!!! Can you please let us know who's on the cover of the next issue, and are there any good spoilers?
This issue the cover is Juliet and Kate. Or did you mean issue #14? That cover will be Alex, Naomi, Ben, and Desmond and it says they'll all be exclusively interviewed.
Issue #13 has what TheHade said plus a big article on the women, some info on The Others: Miikhail, Tom, Ethan, and Richard. Also a long bit about Boone and Shannon. And of course lots of cool pics and behind the scenes stuff. I hope yours comes soon!!

Is there any chance issue 13 will be available in the UK this week? :undecide:

(or is it gonna be another ¾ weeks late job?:frown:)

Info on the Others cool! And I'm interested in all of those!

And Des and Ben on the cover again! Cool!!!!

Alex and Naomi on cover, thats there first cover and first time guest stars get covers. Although Ana and Libby never got one.

I expect Ana/Libby are featured this month for the dead characters review.

We dont even get it here in New Zealand..
I maneged to find Issue #2 And #9 on a auction site but havent find the new ones..
It sucks, But atleast we get the DVD waaaay before america!

Yes, I meant the cover for issue 14. That's awesome - Alex and Naomi on the cover with Ben and Desmond!!! Can't wait for someone to put up a scan of the next cover...

I'm from South Africa and we don't get the magazine here, but my cousin in the UK buys it for me over there and then posts it. Still waiting for issue 12, so will probably only get 13 in November :( Oh well, it's better than not getting it at all!

Any ideas who the variant cover is. Jin or Hurley should be issue 14, they haven't been done yet.

Better not let my hubby see that one!

Why don't you buy it for him?

Because it's so much trouble to get the varient issue. And I don't need to encourage him. ;)

it's Claire.

Awesome. :biggrin:

That only leaves two more people to complete the core regulars, but I think Sayid hasn't had one too, other than Hurley and Jin.

I still don't have my copy of issue 13 in the mail.

My friend just bought me the varient cover with Ian. Yay!

does anybody in the uk have issue 13 yet? :undecide:

We'll get it about one month later again because they no longer produce the UK version of the magazine and only ship the US version via freighter to the UK distribution center or something ... :mad:

We'll get it about one month later again because they no longer produce the UK version of the magazine and only ship the US version via freighter to the UK distribution center or something ... :mad:

if we are getting the us version then we should get it quicker than the uk variant afterall the magazine isnt altered in anyway and it certainly dosent take a month to ship an item from the us to the uk.... we aint living in 1907 here. :mad:

I've noticed that too, here in Australia we seem to be getting the US version now, not just for Lost but other mags like Prison Break, Charmed etc.

Explains why the mags are coming in smaller sizes, since they are normally larger.

Yes, it's the very same version.

and it certainly dosent take a month to ship an item from the us to the uk....
I'd like to think so, too, but apparently Titan Magazines prefers what's cheaper for them even if it means we have to wait substantially longer ... :unhappy:

we aint living in 1907 here. :mad:
Exactly! :thmbdown:

I'd like to think so, too, but apparently Titan Magazines prefers what's cheaper for them even if it means we have to wait substantially longer ... :unhappy:

On the flip-side of the coin... ;)

In some respects we should be thankful we get the magazine in the UK at all. :rolleyes:

I bet they only sell a handful of copies and that's probably to people on this forum, these US TV magazines generally rot on the shelves... nobody buys them. :frown:

But they should still make an effort with subscribers... :mad:

that's true. My local WH Smih always has lots of copies left on the shelves.

I'm very glad they didn't do that! :thumbsup:

Yes: I totally agree!

I wonder if those extra issues from the stores are some of the ones that end up on Ebay.

I live in the UK and subscribe, but for some reason LOST mag #13 hasn't arrived yet? Can someone tell me why this is? Last issue came 1 month and a half late. Why are the issues arriving so late?

Help appreciated. :)

EDIT: I haven't actually read the 7 pages of this thread, so if this has already been answered, whoops.
And I accidentally made a thread about this somewhere else in the forum. Again, my bad.

I wish they would sell them in Mexico!!!:frown: :frown: :frown: You are Luky!!!

Titan Magazines doesn't publish a UK version of "LOST : The Official Magazine" anymore. They import the US version instead which is why we'll receive future issues just as late as the last one, I'm afraid ...

I see, thanks for that. Explains why I'm seeing the mags are smaller in size. I think Titans stoped making mags in the UK for other shows too. The Prison Break and Charmed mags also appear to be US versions now or is it just for me.

I wonder if issue#14 Jan/Feb will be released before February, or will it be the season 4 launch issue. Doesn't appear to be so, given the cover/details for 14. So Issue #15 will be the season 4 launch issue, coming out in Mar/April, well after the launch. hmm.

Any ideas what the script scenes this month are.

Awesome thats great to hear, I'd love to hear what you think of it, and what interesting interviews etc. there were.

Its pretty good..... ive only just read the Adam Horowitz & Eddy Kitsis section & the Gregg Nations interview, but there are also interviews with Elizabeth Mitchell & Evangeline Lilly talking about their respective characters, same goes with Andrew Divoff, M.C Gainey (the guy off Con-Air), William Mapother and Nestor Carbonell. :cool:

There's also a comic.com article with Darlton plus other bits n bobs. :)

Any ideas what the script scenes this month are.

Is it the Box Recorder section you mean?:undecide: .... its the Michael & Walt scene in 3 minutes. :)

I saw it in Easons in Ireland today. I didn't buy it though (Metroid Prime 3 is what I bought), is it worth it? I looked through it a little and only the Andrew Divoff interview caught my eye.

The guy off Con-Air would be Tom. ;) I can't wait to get my copy.

As predicted, mine arrived this morning! (Saturday)

Just got my issue #13 this morning just had a quick flick through cos i had a driving lesson, very cool smoke monster poster comes with it and alot of good pics aswell, ill be reading it tomorrow.

The guy off Con-Air would be Tom. ;) I can't wait to get my copy.

He will always be the bloke that flies the plane on Con-Air to me;).... In the same way that Gary Dourdan (http://www.csi-vegas.net/gallery_affiche_img.php?id_img=118) (CSI) always reminds me of Alien Resurrection :)... its weird how you remember people and their associated movies. :)

PS, glad to hear the rest of you lot are starting to get your magazines...:cool:

As predicted, mine arrived this morning! (Saturday)
That's great!
I already received mine yesterday. So far I only had time to flip through it once ... and I liked what I saw! :thumbsup:

Oh, this is fantastic

We knew what you meant, Tomasillo. I'm still waiting for mine.

You didn't buy the regular issue when it came out? (I bought the regular issue at Borders as well as ordering the special cover one.)

No. I can't afford it right now. Also, I don't bother buying the regular issue, when I have the one with the special cover.
