Did you mean the other Cosmos titles?
Cosmos was a UK fanzine published by John F. Burke in 1937–8. That at least is the information given in the British Fanzine Bibliography and the editorial address, 57 Beauclair Drive, is indeed Burke's although the information below is that no editor is explicitly credited. The Bibliography further says that it was produced in a single copy and then circulated. There are two known issues and may be more.
