Comments on the issue: One long story by Hoffman, the others are shorter. Long story by Tanish Lee, too. I like that they brought back the "Weirdism" feature from the old pulp. As mentioned in the editorial, the Dunsany stories are the first reprints since their original appearance in English magazines in the forties and fifties.  This issue is 82 pages including glossy paper covers, with a color front cover. Size is 8 1/2 X 11 inches.
