    REHeapa Autumnal Equinox 2017 THE RISE OF THE NEW HYBORIAN LEGION, PART TWO By Lee A. Breakiron As we saw last time, the Robert E. Howard United Press Association (REHupa) was the first amateur press association (apa) dedicated to that author. Its founder, Tim C. Marion, started it in 1972 when he was 13 and edited it through the first 19 of its bimonthly Mailings, but left afterward since he was ultimately more interested in fan activities than Howard as a literary figure. Before that, discontent with his leadership and with the real dearth of worthwhile essays and critiques during the early years led to future literary critic Don Herron and others to leave and create The Hyperborian League (THL) apa in October, 1975. Its official editor (OE) was Herron and it was “devoted to the creative discussion of authors Clark Ashton Smith and Robert E. Howard and their works,” though material on other fantasy writers and poets was welcomed. Herron said he spelled the name of the apa “Hyperborian” rather than “Hyperborean” because he wanted to emphasize the fact that it was devoted to both CAS (whence Hyperborean) and REH (whence Hyborian). It would still be occasionally misspelled, even on covers. Its official organ document was titled “Skull & Sandalwood,” suggested by REH’s “Skull-Face” and CAS’s Sandalwood. The fanzines composing the quarterly Mailings were at first stapled by the contributors and left so by the OE, who collected them and mailed them out to the current individual members. He also distributed some copies to libraries, sent “speculative” (“spec”) copies to recruit prospective members, and sold remaining ones to defray postage costs.

Nije se znalo što su htjela bića u letjelicama, ali su iz njihova ponašanja, kao što su intervencije u ljudske živote ('otmice') i sakaćenje stoke, zaključili da su potencijalni neprijatelji. 001 FORBE mac FORBES, Peter 001 Macaklinovo stopalo / Peter Forbes ; s engleskoga prevela Snježana Ercegovac. - Zagreb : Profil multimedija, 2010. - 362 str. ; 21 cm. - (Biblioteka Indigo) Prijevod djela: Gecko's foot.

  • The Hyborian Review Volume 3, Number 9
    The Hyborian Review Volume 3, Number 9. September 30, 1998 Laboring, I tell ya… Great REH Quotes From Selected Letters, 1923-1930, a snip from Howard's correspondence with Tevis Clyde Smith in 1928 (p. 39) I finally got back my rhymes from the Scroll. Scutto surprised me after all. I expected tirades of righteousness, howls of orthodox wrath, scathing rebukes and trenchant remarks about the general absence of merit of my slop, but his criticism was as follows, to say: "While excellent in many respects, they lack rhythm --"! Can you beat that? And he sent me a dinky little pamphlet entitled "Rhythmic and Natural Accents," with a lot of primer stuff in it. Heh heh heh! The poor fish. Well, it's a new experience -- I've had plenty of criticism before, but nobody ever told me my verse was unrhythmic. Ah well -- I know the reason -- two reasons -- some of my rhyme was too intricate and complicated for his blunt musical -- or rather unmusical -- ear to catch -- and the rest was too brutal for him, and he didn't have the guts to say so. He couldn't have published it, consistently, with the policy of the magazine. It would have been letting loose a wolf in a sheep fold. A lot of old maids, artistic businessmen -- heh heh heh -- budding feminine sweet-singers and gooey-gooey jinglers that smear their mush and saccharine over the pages of his juvenile abortion would leap convulsively clean out of their drawers with pure horror had they come upon my serpents coiled between the pages.

    TRANSMEDIA Boni (ed.) Transmedia, Fans, Industries Fans, Transmedia, World Building World Edited by Marta Boni World Building Transmedia, Fans, Industries World Building Transmedia: Participatory Culture and Media Convergence The book series Transmedia: Participatory Culture and Media Convergence provides a platform for cutting-edge research in the field of media studies, with a strong focus on the impact of digitization, globalization, and fan culture. The series is dedicated to publishing the highest-quality monographs (and exceptional edited collections) on the developing social, cultural, and economic practices surrounding media convergence and audience participation. The term ‘media convergence’ relates to the complex ways in which the production, distribution, and consumption of contemporary media are affected by digitization, while ‘participatory culture’ refers to the changing relationship between media producers and their audiences. Interdisciplinary by its very definition, the series will provide a publishing platform for international scholars doing new and critical research in relevant fields. While the main focus will be on contemporary media culture, the series is also open to research that focuses on the historical forebears of digital convergence culture, including histories of fandom, cross- and transmedia franchises, reception studies and audience ethnographies, and critical approaches to the culture industry and commodity culture.

  • The Nemedian Chroniclers #26 [VE19]
    REHeapa Spring Equinox 2019 THE RISE OF THE NEW HYBORIAN LEGION, PART FOUR By Lee A. Breakiron As we saw in our first installment [1], the Robert E. Howard United Press Association (REHupa) was founded in 1972 by a teen-aged Tim Marion as the first amateur press association (apa) devoted to Howard. Reforms by the next Official Editor (OE), Jonathan Bacon, had gone a good way toward making the fanzine Mailings look less amateurish, which in turn attracted more and better members. There was still too many Mailing Comments being made relative to the material worth commenting on, still too little that concerned Howard himself, and still too much being said about tangential matters (pastiches, comics, gaming, etc.) or personal affairs. A lot of fan fiction and poetry was being contributed, but this did garner a lot of appreciation and commentary from the other members. The next OE, Brian Earl Brian, put in a lot of work guiding the organization, though not always competently. Former, longtime REHupan James Van Hise wrote the first comprehensive history of REHupa through Mailing #175. [2] Like him, but more so, we are focusing only on noteworthy content, especially that relevant to Howard. Here are the highlights of Mailings #36 through #45. In Mailing #36 (Nov., 1978), member and longtime agent for the Howard heirs, Glenn Lord, reports on the 4th World Fantasy Convention in Fort Worth, Tex., the previous month: I thought the convention to be quite good … I … picked up Kirby McCauley … and we drove to Cross Plains where I showed him what sights there are to see in that sleepy little town (but failed to find a couple of people I wanted to see at home).
