Descripción del artículo del vendedor

No 22. 24 issues published in total 1984-2002 of this UK semiprozine, small-press sf/fantasy magazine. Published at irregular intervals but usually twice a year: 21 of the 24 issues were published between 1984-1992, with the final three appearing in 1994, 1997 and 2002. It began as a slim-but-ambitious A5 format xeroxed fanzine but switched to A4 from Spring 1990 (no 15), professionally printed, with bold design. 80 pages plus a 14 page directory, which in the section marked Catalogues Received, is stated, and I quote - ''[Catalogues} Sept 92 (48 pages) and May 93 (80 pages). Perhaps the finest selections of SF, fantasy and horror in the country. It's a collector's paradise, with signed, hardback and limited editions a speciality''. Which I would hope still applies today (but catalogues much more frequent!). ''From the start it was able to attract material from Michael Moorcock in the shape of some of his song lyrics (no 7 was a Moorcock Special issue), alongside other experimental and surreal writers like D F Lewis, Steve Sneyd, Don Webb and t winter-damon. Reed developed the magazine as a package, calling it a ''Magazine of Fiction and Art'', presenting avant garde covers by SMS, who also provided covers for Interzone. Whilst the magazine felt like a disciple of the New Wave, a godson of New Worlds, it did start to remould itself with occasional surprises. It ran, for instance, the last story by Benson Herbert, ''Checkmate'' (March 1988 no 10), and it published some of the earliest fiction by Neal Asher, Stephen Baxter and Simon Clark alongside such stalwarts as Garry Kilworth and Ian Watson. The switch to a large format allowed for more artistic scope and longer fiction, contributors extending to Paul Di Filippo and Jeff VanderMeer. Each issue grew more ambitious, receiving newsstand distribution from no 19 (Summer 1991) and becoming perfect bound and semi-slick from issue no 21 (Winter 1992). These final issues were expensive and time consuming to produce, which is why they became infrequent, but they were also handsome and rewarding, with highly original fiction. Back Brain Recluse was one of the more impressive semiprozines to emerge from the UK in the 1980s. Its natural successor became The Third Alternative'' (Mike Ashley/Encyclopedia of SF, 3rd Edition). Fine (unread) copy.
