Ranked #28 on intros.c64.org, this is the signature Fusion release — catalogued on CSDb as "Fusion Intro" and dated 19 May 1988. The only credit CSDb attaches is Jeroen Tel for the music, the tune being "Noisy Pillars (tune 1)," preserved in the HVSC under Tel's composer directory. Doc Snyder's verified section for this intro confirms the music credit and names no coder or graphics artist either. The scrolltext announces a crack of Vixen by Martech, "cracked and trained on 20.5.88... imported into the US by INC," and greets Abyss, TS, ESI, Fairlight, Triad, Orion, Jewels, Last Science, Sharks and INXS among many others. Fusion were founded in the United Kingdom in October 1987, making this intro roughly seven months into the group's existence.
