Fanzine.

Fanzine that published a poem by Brian Stableford.

An interesting annual that went through a range of editors and publishers. The early issues reflected Phil May's renown for cartoons and jokes and the stories were usually humorous, certainly light hearted, and occasionally romantic, but over time it grew increasingly macabre, especially under its final editor Harry Thompson whose issues are almost all full of weird and supernatural stories.

Phobos is a semiannual print and electronic weird fiction magazine. We publish macabre, astounding, unsettling, thrilling, baffling, and terrifying stories in the tradition of Shirley Jackson, Ambrose Bierce, H.P. Lovecraft, Robert E. Howard, and Charlotte Perkins Gilman.

Phoebe seeks to publish quality writing. Do not send formulaic writing, romance fiction, or greeting card poetry. We welcome experimental writing.

Subtitled "A magazine for young writers".
