Planet Stories was an American pulp magazine that ran from Winter 1939 to Summer 1955. As the publication’s title would imply, each issue of Planet Stories is filled with wild, intergalactic adventures and bodacious, other-worldy babes. In addition to the space operas, one of the great draws of Planet Stories was its bright cover art which included buxom Good Girls and Big Eyed Monsters. The two most significant contributors to Planet Stories were authors Leigh Brackett and Ray Bradbury. It was in Planet Stories that three of the pieces that comprise Bradbury’s seminal Martian Chronicles, “Rocket Summer” Spring 1947, “The Third Expedition” in Fall 1948, and “The Million-Year Picnic” in Summer 1946, were first published.
