Atari Legacy·Back Issues

The complete run

BACKISSUES

Atari Legacy is quarterly, and several of its longest stories run in parts across issues — the Calamus history, the Polish demoscene chronicle, Atari and MIDI, the Mad-Pascal course. This is where every issue stays readable: full contents, the same excerpts that were on the front page while it was current, and a way to order the ones you missed.

Start at the beginning

Four of the magazine’s longest threads are serialised: Calamus, the Polish demoscene, Atari and MIDI, and the Mad-Pascal programming course. Part 2 reads far better with part 1 on the shelf next to it.
