Ooze
When Ooze debuted in 1923 in the first issue of the classic horror and fantasy magazine Weird Tales, it became the cover story—and a legendary tale that readers would talk about for years to come. It was published alongside works by Otis Adelbert Kline, Farnsworth Wright (who would later become the editor), W.H. Holmes, Harold Ward, and many pulp fiction stalwarts. Weird Tales—the self-style "Unique Magazine"—would continue for decades after this humble debut, welcoming such authors as Robert E. Howard (of Conan the Barbarian fame), H.P. Lovecraft (the Cthulhu Mythos), Robert E. Howard, and many, many more.
