- Version 1.0 (Text version of FAQ)
Compiled on December 6th, 1994 by Tony Anderson
This original version of the LEGEND FAQ did not have the typical question and answer format of normal FAQs, rather it was an essay called "The legend of LEGEND" (1990-Revised June 1994). This version contained a timeline about the production of the film, running times of various versions and where to purchase some of them, information on the soundtracks and where to purchase them, most of the liner notes from the Jerry Goldsmith LEGEND CD booklet, and the film credits. The essay was 14 pages long.
