    Arcturus [v3 #1, April 1937] ed. Frederik Pohl (EGO Publications, 10¢, 32pp, 5½″ x 4¼″)
    Pavlat & Evans states that this issue was incomplete. The copy I have is not a mimeographed copy but a mock up probably used to show the stencil cutter how to type the stencil. However it is missing a leaf, pages 15 to 18, which means that the Carnell story which the ToC says starts on page 18 continues on page 19 in the middle of the story which implies that pages 15 to 18 were at some stage typed up. I have done my best to set out what the issue should contain based on the pages I have.

    Ares (1980):   (about)
    Ares was a gaming magazine which occasionally printed fiction. Only the fiction is listed.

    Ares

    • Publishers:
      • Simulations Publications, Inc.; New York: Ares, #1 – #13.
      • Dragon Publishing; Lake Geneva, WI: Ares, #14 – #17.

    • Editors:

    Ares Special Edition [#2, 1984?] (quarto)
    This issue is undated apart for a copyright date of 1983. It certainly appeared some time between Summer 1983 (when Special Edition #1 was published) and Spring 1984 (when the magazine folded) and internal evidence suggests it might be closer to the latter.

    Ares Magazine [Issue 2, (April) 2015] (One Step Press, $9.00, A5)
    Also available in a “hobby edition” for $30.00 which includes a two-player game called “Invasive Species”.
