    Description

    This was the first issue of the Grimoire of Exalted Deeds that was published in newsprint, with a glossy cover.  It features the legendary cover art that has Ernie (from Bert and Ernie) crucified, with the sign reading IRNI instead of INRI. Get it?
    Each issue was hand-cut by Bill Zebub in a garage.  13,000 were made.  This issue will not have the staples in the middle, to give each such copy a bit more rarity, and each copy will be autographed.
    The bands inteviewed were MY DYING BRIDE, DERANGED, GWAR, EDGE OF SANITY, MORBID ANGEL (TREY), CANNIBAL CORPSE, WICKED INNOCENCE, MALEVOLENT CREATION, PARADISE LOST, BRUCE DICKINSON,
    This is a highly sought collectible for many reasons.  Bill Zebub was first learning how to use Quark Express, the layout software, and you can see his many design mistakes.  It's also significant because it was quite a graduation from the previous photocopied format.  The bigger print run also meant that the humor shocked a lot more people.
