It is the 1930s and John P. Moore, an ambitious author, has just had his first story, a science fiction tale featuring the adventures of scientists and journalists taking the first trip to the planet Mars, published in Amazing Stories.

But you won't find that story, along with its two sequels, inside the pages of any copy of Amazing Stories – not in a pulp magazine collector's vault, not on the internet archive and that is because the Amazing Stories that published Moore's tales appeared within the pages of the negro newspapers of the day.

Now, for the first time in over ninety years, you can read John P. Moore's tales of interplanetary adventure and learn about the rediscovery of the Black Amazing Stories, the featured science fiction section of the IFS, a syndicated insert distributed by many negro newspapers, that had a circulation that enormously larger than the pulp magazines, and established by one of the men who would go on to buy Amazing Stories in the late 1930s.
