Introduction
The unfortunately named "Terror News" was the longest running Hungarian magazine. Despite all the negative things that can be said about the tone and the quality, it was a very important piece of the scene life. The main code and layout of the diskmag has been stolen from Muffbusters' Byte Times diskmagazine without permission. The main editor, Tarzan continued this magazine on PC, and it had a surprisingly good run and a lot of following. The last official issue from Tarzan was Terror News 25. In that issue, he says good bye to the scene. The following issues (26-31) where Methabolix releases, and indeed Tarzan was angry at them for continuing the mag without his permission.
