Myth and tomorrow share Issue #136: Ray Harryhausen’s Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger leads with a production painting on the cover, while “The Filmonster Forecast” scans the horizon — Close Encounters of the Third Kind incoming. Empire of the Ants swarms in, and “The Werewolf Dies” lowers the flag for Henry Hull, the original Werewolf of London.

Harryhausen-focused issues hold steady demand, and Issue #136 lands at a hinge moment — Sinbad’s myth-making on the cover while the “Filmonster Forecast” sniffs out Close Encounters on the horizon. The Henry Hull farewell closes a circle the magazine itself helped draw.
