Whispered Legends

Total Issues: 1

This could be considered an anthology, since the publisher never planned to do more than one, but has a sufficiently magazine-like format to justify its inclusion here. Another similar one-shot was issued several years later as Violent Legends.

A free quarterly literary journal. "The idea of a popular literary journal, cheaply or freely distributed in cafes or book stores, has never been tried in Minneapolis or Saint Paul, as far as I know.
