December 1991 Teen Life: SHARPs, Sexism & Slumber Party Witchcraft

The readers have returned to produce the December 1991 issue, and they’ve got some big ideas. What He Said is out. WorldWatch and Crusaders are in. Bummer features? Forever. (Although this one is about the kind of skinheads who are cool and beat up Nazis, so it could definitely be worse.) We’ve got some editing notes and a lot of memories about Light As A Feather, Stiff As A Board and related attempts to mess with the laws of physics in our latest Teen Life episode!
