July 1982: "July" Delights Harry/Johnny Fans (And Us)
Do ya feel lucky? Punk! This week, V and Emily are so, so, sososo delighted by a new-to-them fandom: Harry/Johnny, which is technically -- technically -- the Dirty Harry fandom, but is REALLY just an offshoot of Starsky & Hutch. Created wholecloth by two fannish friends based on a single look in the middle of a movie that is only the second out of five in a series that is Decidedly Not Slashy, Harry/Johnny was a hugely influential slash fandom of the 1980s and WE LOVE IT SO MUCH NOW. Come be totally delighted with us!
