The Journal of the Travellers’ Aid Society #16

The Journal of the Travellers’ Aid Society 16 (Spring, 1983?) has SuSAG on the cover. SuSAG is laid out as an archetypical sci-fi megacorporation (shades of Weyland-Yutani). There is also info of banks and repo agents (starships are expensive and players seems like the sort who will miss payments). Basically space capitalism run rampant. Oh, there is a race of space octopuses too.

I should mention how much I like the art direction for this magazine. There is just a hint of the style of like 60s era advertising flyers and clip art, but with real specific sci-fi details. I love the single color stuff in particular. This full cover color by Charles Bernard is pretty swell, too.
