Creative Group purchased Fangoria ( and its parent publication Starlog ) in the early 2000s, hoping to branch out the brand identity of the magazine to radio, television, and comics.

After the entire magazine industry took a serious tumble in 2001, Starlog Group was eventually purchased by Creative Group, Inc., which continued to publish Starlog and Fangoria, and expanded its franchises into the Internet, satellite radio, video, and TV.

Fangoria was first planned in 1978 under the name Fantastica as a companion to the science fiction media magazine Starlog ; just as Starlog covered science fiction films for a primarily teenaged audience, Fantastica was intended to cover fantasy films for a similar audience.

Everitt left the magazine shortly after Martin's departure, and was replaced by Starlog editor David McDonnell, who handled both magazines for several months before turning over the reins to longtime editor Tony Timpone.

In an interview for Starlog in 1983, Badham recalled, " He was terrified.

It was the most reliable market for much of the best short horror in that period and appealed to audiences for the likes of Fangoria and Starlog as well as for The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction and Whispers.

Comics Scene was a magazine published in three volumes by Starlog Group Inc. Its original 11-issue run lasted from January 1982 through September 1983 and the second volume was published between 1987 and early 1996, lasting 56 issues ( this second series was published from bi-monthly at its initial start, to monthly frequency for its final years ).

Examining the acting in a review published in Starlog magazine, Alan Jones expressed a preference for the British members of the cast, crediting Geeson as " absolutely first-rate " and criticising " the weak performances from the token Americans, Robin Clarke and Jennifer Ashley ".

Many titles for it were suggested, including Fantastic Films and Starflight before Starlog was chosen.

But DiTillio, a first season staff writer who became story editor when J. Michael Straczynski ( Starlog # 111 ) left the position for a similar post with the revived Twilight Zone, claimed that ramrodding the script side of Captain Power hasn't been easy.

In a subsequent Starlog article a year after the cancellation, DiTillio cited many reasons for Mattel cutting off the show's funds, resulting in the show's cancellation: " Mattel's tie in toys didn't sell up to expectations, parents group charges that the show was too violent, and having to shell out Screen Actors Guild and Writers Guild residual payments because Captain Power was live action.

In the November 1980 issue of Starlog, Gerard even said that he had hoped the series wouldn't be picked up for a second season because he didn't want to go through another season like the first one.

In March 2009, Starlog became a sister site to Fangoria magazine's official site, with a new url tied to Fangoria.

The series had an overall budget of $ 800, 000 per hour of air time, according to Starlog issue # 32 ( March 1980 ).

As of December 2008, the official website at Starlog. com had ceased to operate.

Starlog and Fangoria and all related assets were purchased by The Brooklyn Company, Inc. in July 2008.

The production of Labyrinth was covered in multiple high-profile magazines and newspapers in anticipation of its release, with articles appearing in The New York Times, Time and Starlog magazine.

In an interview with Starlog magazine in the early 1980s, Johnson expressed an interest in appearing on Star Trek, during its original run on NBC ( 1966 – 1969 ), although this did not come about.

Shortly after the publishing trade press announced the coming launch of Fantastica, the publishers of a Starlog competitor, Fantastic Films magazine, brought suit on the basis of " unfair trade ," contending that its young audience would be confused by the magazine's similar title.

Comics Scene was, like its sister magazines Starlog and Fangoria, distributed via the newsstand system and was widely available in drug stores and grocery outlets.

New content began to appear on the Starlog website on April 7, 2009, after the site returned to its original Starlog. com domain.
