04.Mar.2003 - Matrix article in Starlog #312
Previews magazine has reported that Science-Fiction magazine Starlog will have a "Matrix Reloaded" article in their May issue.
No word yet if Neo & Co. will be also featured on the cover.
03.Mar.2003 - ToyFare to cover, "twist" Matrix in May
ToyFare: The Toy Magazine #71, due out in May, will feature lots of Matrix coverage. Below are the relevant excerpts from the
full-page ad in this month's Previews magazine:
Return to The Matrix. The Matrix is back! We'll run down all of the must-have product tie-ins for the
most hotly anticipated trilogy since...that other trilogy! What's happening with the busts, toys, DVDs? Find out here, 'cause we got it all! The all-new Matrix busts from the talented folks at Gentle Giant Studios grace this month's cover.
TWISTED TOYFARE THEATRE This month's episode of Twisted ToyFare Theatre sees Mego Spidey take his first
trip into the Matrix! Or is it out of the Matrix? Either way, someone's sure to get run over by the Spider-Mobile. Just remember: There may or may not be a spoon!
"The Matrix" has not been a ToyFare cover story since Issue #30, back in '99 (they seem to really like those X-Men covers, though). Now, I wonder if Mego Spidey can dodge bullets...

Chateau playset with Neo! Can you tell I'm excited? Did I say that
already?
Check them out!
05.Feb.2003 - The Second Renaissance Part I
The first Matrix short anime film, The Second Renaissance Part I, is
now online, and you should definately watch it. It is very cool--well written, great animation, a bit
disturbing, and it makes you think. I can hardly wait until the next one.
27.Jan.2003 - Usagi turns 28
Yay! I, the somewhat humble webmaster of this site, turn 28 years old today.
If you'd like to get me something, what I really want is a Hong Kong Matrix
poster like the one you see at the right.
Or, you could
tell me where I could find one, because I
haven't seen one on eBay in 4 years...
