I acquired this particular book from the estate of a deceased manga artist after their family contacted me some time ago to help document/preserve their works. This book was in their collection, whereas I was able to keep it. As a copy book, this text has been kept in optimal condition considering its age.
A SF / fantasy themed text, this doujinshi is a fanzine focused on paranormal activities alongside original SF stories. In the theme of Japanese SF, the absurdist quality of the works makes them Sci-Fi, especially in this particular era. This particular book hails from the Liangshanbo Pen Club (梁山泊ペンクラブ), also known as the Triton FC Kanagawa Prefecture Hiratsuka Neighborhood Association (TritonFC 神奈川県支部平塚町内会) in the Kanagawa prefecture. This work is one done by university students at best considering the themes etc, and Mari Kotani (小谷 真理) submits a bit of writing and a card she got signed at COSMICON from Wendayne Ackerman and Forrest J Ackerman.
A few of the novels in this issue are based on AUs of popular anime of the time, such as UFO Grendizer and Leiji Matsumoto's works. Debuted at Comiket 6 that same year.

Gyoeee! Th-this isn't the doujinshi I edited? (//∇//) Nostalgic~... though, it's kinda embarrassing~.
The inaugural issue of the magazine <Kiki Kaikai> from the TritonFC Kanagawa Prefecture Hiratsuka Neighborhood Association, commonly known as the Liangshan Pack. Four more issues followed, and afterward, it was succeeded by the heroic fantasy & fantasy fan club "Lorarias."
