    Galaxy Science Fiction:    (about)
    The exact title became a bit vague after Universal bought it. The final issue had no newsstand distribution, nor was it sent to all subscribers. We have not ordinarily indicated situations where the book version of a novel was published before the last installment of the serial, but Jem is so extraordinary in this regard that it is worth a comment. Galaxy’s publishing schedule slipped so badly on the last few issues that both the hardcover and paperback editions of Jem were issued long before the serial was completed. All issues from Oct 1977 through May 1978 exist in two versions. Subscription copies have dates given on the covers and spines, newsstand copies have the volume and number. The last issues were revivals as semi-professional magazines.
