The Running Man

Country: UK
Total Issues: 3

Running Man was a "new, fiercely libertarian magazine" which intended to "report on every aspect of the ebullient new life-style now emerging in Britain, exercising the right of Free Speech on literature, politics, the avant-garde and the New Morality, down to the very last syllable." The magazine lasted only a few months, producing three issues, after encountering too many censorship problems. It published some fiction, including J.G. Ballard's "Love and Napalm: Export USA".
