  1. Great covers, and great to see the names of Editor Ray Palmer and Richard Shaver, author of I Remember Lemuria, classic 60s era weirdness.

    • Those 2 are the reason why Other Worlds was created. Ray Palmer was fired from his position as editor of the Ziff-Davis pulps Amazing Stories and Fantastic Adventures, and Richard S. Shaver was banned from the Ziff-Davis pulps because of the “Shaver Mystery” stories. So Ray Palmer started his own magazine to continue publishing Shaver’s stories; the cover story for the first issue of Other Worlds was “The Fall of Lemuria”.
