Robert E. Howard’s “Spicy” stories have long been celebrated for their daring blend of adventure and sensuality, often pushing the boundaries of the pulp fiction market of his time. These tales, many of which originally appeared in the pages of Spicy-Adventure Stories, a magazine known for its provocative content, capture Howard’s unique ability to weave thrilling narratives with a touch of the forbidden. However, the stories that reached readers were often tempered by editors who found Howard’s original typescripts too bold, leaving fans and scholars eager to discover his unfiltered work.

The very first issue of REH: Two-Gun Raconteur from 1976. Contains several articles by Damon Sasser, artwork by James Bozarth. Even an article about an astrological look at Howard.
In the mid-1970s, when the Robert E. Howard Boom was just beginning, REH: Two-Gun Raconteur was on the cutting edge of Howard Fandom. During those heady days there was a continuous stream of hardback books, paperbacks, magazines, comics, chapbooks, fanzines, art portfolios and one-shot publications all devoted to the gifted author and poet from Cross Plains, Texas. When the Boom eventually faded out in the late eighties, the fans and admirers of Robert E. Howard still carried the torch, waiting for a time when Howard would return and that time has come. While not on as grand a scale as the earlier boom, it is nonetheless a great time to be a Howard fan.
