The Robert E. Howard Companion

Contents of Issue no. 1:
  1. “'The Voice of El-Lil' and the Lost Race Tradition” by Dr. Morgan Holmes. More than just a Howard story, this tale encapsulates an entire genre.

  3. “North by Southwest” by Steven Tompkins. A direction found by ‘chaos out of dream’ in “The Marchers of Valhalla."
