==Issue 33/34==
Warped Space 33/34 was published in February 1978 and contains 100 pages.
The art by Mary Bloemker, T.J. Burnside, Gordon Carleton, Susan Ceci, Jean C., Connie Faddis, Kelly Frame, Nan Lewis, Martynn, Monica Miller, Pat Munson, Jackie Paciello, Mark Rogers, Leah Rosenthal, Carolyn Ruth, Melinda Shreve, Leslie Smith, and Joni Wagner. It was half Star Wars, half Star Trek + Man from Atlantis story.
In the Miscellanea section, an anonymous listing claims: "Illegal buttons of Gee Moaven's artwork are being sold in various stories around the country. None of the dealers have her permissions. If you see any of these buttons, please take the time to inform them that you know they are illegal -- and do not buy them for that reason."
Also in the Miscellanea section, a fan makes three related announcements: one, she is getting married. Two, she is moving to North Dakota (and plaintively asks if there any fans "anywhere" in that state). Three, she "has been persuaded to" hyphenate her maiden and her married name "in fandom, but for all legal purposes she will be" taking her husband's name.

* Re: The 1978 World Science Fiction Convention Iguanacon - a Statement of Ethical Position by Worldcon Guest of Honor Harlan Ellison (in which Ellison explains his reasons for attending the 1978 Worldcon held in Arizona in spite of the fact that Arizona failed to ratify the Equal Rights Amendment when he, and others, had chosen to boycott other sci-fi conventions held in Florida before due to Anita Bryant's homophobic stance on gays. (reprinted with permission from the Dec 1977 issue of Locus magazine (#207)Ellison stayed in a rented RV that was parked at the curb in front of the Hyatt hotel, on the theory that as long as he didn't spend any money in the state, his boycott would be valid. Of course, this left convention gophers the task of running out to the parking meter every few hours to feed the meter, until the convention was able to persuade the mayor to bag the meter on the the second to last day of the convention.

File:Warped3435-15.jpg|from issue #35/36, Leslie Fish, page 87: a fan who'd had a lot of criticism regarding Fish's art for The Weight in letters of comment in Warped Space had this to say: "What bothered me about your illos? I suppose I am a little (or a lot) "straight", but seeing a naked, female Spock standing over Kirk's bed, looking like he's about to whip him with a Christmas tree leftover, is a bit unsettling." from Warped Space #40

==Issue 39==
Warped Space 39 was published in November 1978, is 124 pages long.
The editor sent this issue (and possibly earlier ones) to Lucasfilm by Craig Miller's request. In May 1979, Chapek-Carleton mentions the difficulty she had in getting "Lucasfilm" to pay her the money the company owed."Craig Miller of Chapter II Co. (a division of Lucasfilms) is apparently no longer at Chapter II Universal City Plaza, Universal City, CA, 91608. Concerned fans might also try writing to the Star Wars Fan Club, c/o Factors. Does anyone know if there's been some sort of shake-up in the company? Those fanzine editors who answered the call of Craig Miller to send their 'zines (containing "Star Wars" related material) to the Star Wars Corp. who have had difficulty obtaining payment (which was promised) for those 'zines should write to the Black Falcon Ltd. address given above. It look five months for me to get paid for WARPED SPACE 39. I've told the company that I'll only send them further issues upon advance payment." -- comment in "Warped Space" #41.
The editor noted that R&R #1 and Pegasus could now be added:
