Starship Sloane Publishing has announced the revival of classic SF magazine Galaxy Science Fiction, originally published from 1950-80, with a brief revival in the ’90s.
The journal is being brought back in both print and digital form “for a contemporary audience, featuring both authors from its original run and beyond into today’s global SF landscape, with works spanning seven countries.”
Authors and artists include Eugen Bacon, F.J. Bergmann, Eliane Boey, Ronan Cahill, AJ Dalton, Bob Eggleton, Zdravka Evtimova, David Gerrold, Richard Grieco, Rodney Matthews, Bruce Pennington, Daniel Pomarède, Gareth L. Powell, Christopher Ruocchio, Paulo Sayeg, Robert Silverberg, Nigel Suckling, and Dave Vescio.
Cover art for the first new issue, #263, is by Bruce Pennington.
The same company revived Worlds of IF last year.

Galaxy was a one time my favorite magazine. At other times it was Worlds of If, and for quite a while it was Analog, but it is good to see Galaxy come back, like having grilled cheese and tomato soup on a cold, wet day. Here’s hoping it holds up as well as the sandwich did!
