(Oct. 2003) - Is Dale Cooper a mystic detective? Ken Volante examines the influence of Buddhism and Eastern philosophy in Twin Peaks! Also in this issue: our annual, detailed report on the Twin Peaks Festival, complete with lots of exclusive photos of Dana Ashbrook, Michael Horse, Rebekah Del Rio, and others; part two of our report on the Japanese Twin Peaks Card Game; some early impressions of HBO's Carnivale; and a wild "World Spins" news section. Plus, just for the heck of it, a great Alias back cover featuring Melissa George (Camilla Rhodes in Mulholland Drive) and Jennifer Garner!
