Okay, so I haven't made a decision on who will write Random Image of the Month. I will go over all applications I have again and announce it next issue. For all of those who have applied, your sections look overall pretty good, and it's a hard decision.

Box-Art of the Month (Homestar Runner)


This month's boxart is Super Mario Galaxy 2. I think this image is very well composed- The sky blends in just the right way, Mario & Yoshi look awesome, and the planets are in just the right places.

Screenshot of the Month (Fawfulfury65)


Welcome back to the Screenshot of the Month. This week, I chose an image from Donkey Kong Country. So why on earth did I choose this? The image is much bigger than most images for the game, and the detail in some of the image is very nice for an ol' 16-bit game like this. The characters, Donkey, Diddy, Enguarde, and the Chomps Jr., are shaded very nicely and look much neater than the sprites in most other SNES games. And of course, I could never not choose an image from one of my favorite game. So there you have it. Tune in next month for the next Screenshot of the Month!

Boo! Did I scare you? You didn't!? WHAT!? Anyway, this is BabyLuigiOnFire here, with you on Sketch Related to Mario of the month! Due to this month being October, I drew something a little special here to fit the mood of Halloween. My picture is a Halloween Party, Mario-style! Various characters can be seen in this picture, most of them dressed up in costumes.

Hope you enjoy this picture. I spent a lot of effort trying to impress you and I added a colorful touch to this newspaper using my abilities to draw. Stay tuned for next month; I'll draw ANOTHER special picture. Guess what it's gonna be about!

Sprite of the Month (FunkyK38)
This month's Sprite of the Month is this sprite of Fawful in his Dark Star Outfit. I guess you could call it a Halloween costume for him, sort of.
