Those Who Favor Fire (Blake's 7 zine)

For articles with a similar title, see Those Who Favor Fire.
Those Who Favor Fire is a slash 120-page anthology. The cover art is by Suzan Lovett. 
Inside the zine are two Lovett illos with sonnets attached, portraying Avon as Scorpio and Blake as Aquarius. Apparently there was also a companion piece, Vila as Cancer, which was not used in the zine.
Other interior art is by Billie Phillips, Gayle F, and Jean Kluge.
==A Sort of Con Zine==
As per the "Freedom City" program book, this was a sort of con zine for Freedom City.
It differs from other con zines in that it was created well in advance of the con, in part for the sale proceeds went to support the "Guest Fund." as per the Freedom City program book . Con zines are also generally "fluffier" in content, but not this one. It was filled with content from many BNFs. 
The zine itself does not have a date on it, nor does it mention the con in any way. 
Freedom City Convention held April 28-30, 1989 during the thick of The Blake's 7 Wars.
 
==Scorpio, Aquarius, Cancer==
The zine has several Lovett pieces. One of them portrays Avon as Scorpio and the other portrays Blake as Aquarius. 
Apparently there was a companion piece, Vila as Cancer, which was not used in the zine.

 Image:Avonincondom.jpg| Scorpio by Suzan Lovett -- "Remember the Suzi Lovett picture, "Scorpio" which had Paul Darrow dressed in black leather so tight nothing was left to the imagination? It was also called Avon in a condom. Well, the New Zealand fan who was so rabid about slash was running an art show and I was helping. This came up in the auction and she refused to put it up because Paul would be offended. I told it it had two bids, she had to do it. She said to put it at the very end. Before we had a chance to do anything, Paul walked up behind us, saw it and reached over and took it out of her hand. "I'll auction that one," he said with a definite twinkle in his eye.
