BIZARRE
   US SEMIPROZINE. 1 issue (Jan 1941), ed Walter E. Marconette and J. Chapman Miske, effectively a continuation of Marconette's earlier FANZINE Scienti-Snaps. Professional in appearance, with a colour cover by Hannes BOK, it is remembered mainly for publishing for the first time the original but previously unused ending of A. MERRITT's novel Dwellers in the Mirage (1932; rev 1953), which ending has been in use ever since. B also ran a discussion by John W. CAMPBELL Jr about writing styles.
