Weird Fantasy
(Did you want the Weird fiction genre?)
Weird Fantasy was a fanzine published by Dave Britton and, for its first issue, John Muir.
The first issue included material by Michael Moorcock (reprinted from Camber) and Ramsey Campbell with artwork by James Cawthorn and Britton.
ISFDB says there was only one issue but there is an online image of #2[1]. Oddly this carries a date of February 15, 1958 (when Britton was only 13) and a cover price of 15p suggesting it's from 1971 or later. The Savoy website[2] confirms it is actually dated 1971. It features artwork by Britton and a 'portfolio by James Cawthorn ... from his prime period (1958–1963) when — with a vision as unique as Mervyn Peake's — he defined the artwork for the Sword & Sorcery genre'.
