    15 Minutes (2004) 1

    by Bob Elinskas, David Hedgecock, & Mike Kelleher. As the saying goes, everyone gets "fifteen minutes" of fame.

For some, it means celebrity... for some heartbreak... for some redemption. 15 Minutes ? everyone gets theirs. This first issue features two, self-contained stories. In "Return to Sender," we ask what would you do if the postman accidentally delivered to you the world's most powerful weapon? And in "Book Covers," we find out if we're the people our kids see us as... or the people everyone else sees. 24 pages, full color. Cover price $3.95.
