A Letter from the Editor,
Ben Chess














Welcome to the brand new Marathon Magazine! The Marathon Magazine is unlike any other e-zine found on the internet, because programs and other files come bundled with it! For example this month, we give you Marathon Cheater 2.5 and the Marathon FAQ. We realize that you may already have both of these files, but that is the difficulty with making the first issue. We do hope you enjoy our articles, however. This month we offer an article about making your own Background music, a Marathon Review, and the first chapter of the series of a walkthrough of the entire Marathon Release game. Note that some files only apply to Release or the Demo of Marathon. The description of the file or document usually tells you what it is recommended for.
If you have a film of your favorite Marathon moment, a program, or an article related to Marathon send it to us! Our Internet E-mail address is ab956@detroit.freenet.org. Please don't submit files over 200K when compressed, and be sure all files are BinHexed and compressed. Comments can also be sent to ab956@detroit.freenet.org. Starting next issue, the top 5 or 10 films submitted will be featured in the magazine. We hope that you enjoy Marathon Magazine and find it useful and enjoyable.

Hoping you the best,
Ben Chess
Editor of Marathon Magazine
