I left the magazine for the very reasons posted earlier on; it became a pretentious literary outlet and was NOT in the spirit of WT of old, so I quit buying it. Abandonment of the old logo severed all ties with that history for me. Glad to see it back, and hope to see the WT spirit back in those pages again....

(I think there was one issue done on glossy but that was years ago.) Though this seems even thinner than some of the older issues, which would be my biggest complaint. Saving a few pennies probably isn't worth it, and it would be better to go with a standard newsprint weight than this tissue-paper. In a day and age where even SPACE & TIME can print on a good stock, I can't see why WT can't, too. @ Fred: WT has nearly always been printed on newsprint.

I have received MY very first issue of Weird Tales, the new edition (#359), and all I can say is... FANTASTIC!!!!!! I was sceptic when I have seen the thin magazine, but the use of newspaper instead of classical paper for this magazine brings to it a certain "retro charm"!! I was wondering how much ads there were inside and I am really happy to see that I can say: a few ones!! Despite its International subscription price very expensive against the US subscription price (could you explain why there is a 100% more??), i think that I will sign for a full year. I also hope that this great mag will become a bi-monthly one. To wait a quarter for an issue is a pure torture!! :) You have gain a new reader!!! Judge Fred MANSON Hello there!!

I can see that you have not only remained utterly true to the spirit of WT, but you've enthusiastically created an interesting and varying monthly theme for half of each issue. I never imagined you'd do such a good thing for the magazine while all the time leading up to it gave me the impression that that wasn't the case. thanks. -Robert Marvin, I’d like to personally apologize.
