I knew nothing of this magazine before choosing this from Random 12.
An odd mix of stories ranging from crime through to Lovecraftian horror - something for all in the family, I guess.
The Kath King script was competent. What surprised me most about it was the hint of manga - a lot of the text descriptions could have been left out - and then you are left with some very interesting atmospheric panels which are enough to tell the story in themselves.
The advert for Pelmanism also caught my eye - a system clearly anchored in the Edwardian notion of self-reliance and personal development - what glorious fun!

Thanks for reminding me about this magazine.
The one author I recognise here is Wal Watkins.
Who was a writer of some renown but mostly forgotten now.
Here are three of his books.
