The Hyborian League was a small but faithful group of Howard admirers. They published a small circulation magazine called Amra (Conan’s name amongst the Corsairs, meaning “Lion”). George R. Heap started and published Amra until 1959, when George Scithers took over until its final issues in 1985. Scithers (along with Darrell Schweitzer) revived Weird Tales in 1986. --G. W.
