Fantasy & Science Fiction magazine is a long running US publication established in 1949.  They have a web site with information on the magazine that features this issue, which is still current.  That web site is http://www.sfsite.com/fsf/, and their email address is fsfmag at fsfmag.com.

That was you?  I remember that discussion a couple of years ago.  It inspired me to include that quote as one of my Disney comics signatures.   Of all of the Disney comics characters, Gyro has been the one I identified with the most.

Yes, I think that a large percentage of comic book fans are also science fiction fans, but don't have any data to back that up.
