Contents & cover art for forthcoming premiere issue of The Martian Wave print zine

Speculative fiction author Lawrence Dagstine reports that the contents and cover art for the forthcoming premiere issue of The Martian Wave have been released. Formerly a quarterly webzine of “interplanetary stories, space opera, astronaut tales, and fiction about intergalactic exploration,” The Martian Wave has been revamped as a semi-annual print magazine published by Sam’s Dot Publishing. The first issue, scheduled to be released this summer, will include a short story by Dagstine titled “The Great Martian Depression.”
