Fanzine:The Journal of Omphalistic Epistemology

Title: The Journal of Omphalistic Epistemology

Editor: A sequel fanzine to Foyster's Exploding Madonna.
 * John Foyster

Format: quarto fanzine.

Issues Published: 1969-1973. Contents from issues #1–#3 taken from Bruce Gillespie's SF Commentary #19, which reprinted all issues of Journal of Omphalsitic Epistemology up to that date, hence those issues are presently unverified.

Foyster considered issue #4 to be the fanzine Altjira #4, published in February 1972.

Later issues "shared" publication with Bruce Gillespie's SF Commentary. JOE #5 is also SF Commentary #27, JOE #6 is also SF Commentary #32 and JOE #6 (part 2) is SF Commentary #34, under the name of both fanzines as single publications. JOE #6 is dated November 1972 although it did not appear in published form until February 1973, and JOE #6 (part 2) is dated February 1973 although it did not appear in published form until May 1973, hence the dates appearing as they do below.
