Amazing Stories (magazine)

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.
The cover of the August 1928 issue, which had the first chapters of both the Skylark Series and Buck Rogers stories.

Amazing Stories was the first magazine devoted solely to science fiction. It was founded in 1926 by Hugo Gernsback (in whose honor the Hugo Awards are named) and published continuously until 1995. A revival attempt in 1998 was unsuccessful, as was a second in 2004, and the final issue was published in 2005.

During the 1980s, the title was licensed for a Genre Anthology TV series by Steven Spielberg: Amazing Stories. Unfortunately the magazine didn't capitalize on the TV show's publicity.
