7 Comments

by Gideon Marcus We've had a bit of a backlog of books here at the editorial desk, and the only remedy was to have two back-to-back Galactoscopes. Luckily, summer is slow season for TV, and thus the schedule opens up a bit. Sometimes, our book review column comprises a clutch of mediocrities.

[August 12, 1962] FEH (the September 1962 Amazing)

7 Comments
