This book has giant robots and a rocket ship being attacked by a giant space Octopus, perfect.

I have always wondered why this science-fiction mag was titled "Scoops." Does/did the word have a particular British meaning understood by kids of the time? An older American slang meaning of a scoop is a big news story which one newspaper published before all the others. Doesn't seem to match up with s-f pulp stories.
