Weird Tales Project: 1942

Yes, we are still doing this!  Trying to read at least one story from each issue of Weird Tales printed in the 1940s!  We've already done this for the 1930s, after all, so why do you doubt we can do it for the 1940s?  It is early days, admittedly, but we still going to celebrate our conquest of 1942's six issues of the unique magazine of the bizarre and unusual.  Below find links to the 1942 WT stories we have blogged about, as well as links to the 1930-1941 indices that will send you to my blog posts on hundreds of earlier WT stories.
