Hi there,
This is my first post, but I have purchased every issue of Dragon going back to issue 279 and every Dungeon issue going back to issue 84. There is always great content in both your magazines and the most recent incarnations of both are simply amazing. My campaign group is totally based in the Underdark, and I was wondering if there might be either a couple of articles or perhaps even a complete issue dedicated to adventuring in the underdark. I have some decent ideas and there have been several articles and adventures in the issues I have, but I don't think there has been a true "Underdark" issue in the current incarnation. Ideally I would love a cross over set of issues like you did with the Githyanki and the Lich Queen in Dragon 309 and Dungeon 100 only with an Underdark theme. I base my campaign in the Forgotten Realms, but I certainly wouldn't mind generic underdark content and I will adapt it to the Realms myself if necessary.
I know you guys probably get at least a 100 different requests a month for different types of content, but I would really love some solid underdark based ideas that I could inject into my campaign. Keep up the great work and I can't wait to get the next issues of both your mags!!!
I wouldn't mind seeing an all Underdark issue myself. The Underdark is my favorite part of D & D and I can't really get enough of it. Have you purchased the hard cover Forgotten Realms Underdark book ? Both Dungeon and Dragon magazine have had various adventures and articles based on the underdark. I am bad with numbers, but I have a large collection and I can recall plenty of aricles. Another thing you may want to do is use the search function in the upper left corner of the Dragon magazine page on this site and see what hits you get for underdark.
I've only been subscribing since Dragon 320, so I don't know if there have been other issues dealing with the Underdark, but I think that an Underdark issue would be really cool.
And on the subject of one-themed issues - I think that Dragon should have more of them! I know that the editors are hesitant to do that, but I think that such articles would be okay as long as they appeared only occasionaly.

There is the FR Underdark book, and the drow issues of Dragon. That said, I would really like to see an issue, or series of articles, dealing with the Underdark. Very little is covered about the Deep Below, although we see a bit about the middledark. Info on the odder portions of the middledark would be fairly cool as well.

An article or two on the Underdark would be nice, but lets not overdo it. There has been enough of that recently. There is the aforementioned Underdark FR book. Then there is Lord of Madness, which deals showcases mindflayers, aboleth, and grell, all underground races. Not to mention that there is the Fane of the Drow product coming out soon. All in all, that is more than enough.
