This series included Australian work under house pseudonyms, The most frequent contributors were Alan G Yates [as Paul Valdez] and G C Bleeck [as Belli Luigi], although it is reported that other authors also used these pseudonyms.
Some covers were by Australian comics artists, particularly Maurice Bramley. "Strange Constellations: A History of Australian Science Fiction" reports that the covers were printed in batch lots with the author and title fixed, so that the writer wrote a story to match under the house pseudonym.
www.sf-encyclopedia.com reports that Alister Innes and Donald H Beard were the uncredited editors. The issue contents are broadly crime, western and adventure stories generally set in a science fiction context. The writing is reported to be mediocre to poor.
