First published in 1994, the Herald of Doom was a short lived fanzine that saw contributions from many of the games leading authors. Edited and published by Malcolm Wolter, this professional looking magazine broke ground in both presentation and content. Contributors included Mark Morrison (renowned Call of Cthulhu author), Richard Watts (Line Developer of the ELRIC! edition and regular contributor here at Stormbringer!) and Lawrence Whitaker (who is one of the key writers for Mongoose Publishing’s Eternal Champion line).
It is hoped that additional issues of Herald of Doom will be released over the coming year.
Please note, this is a scanned copy of the original issue, and at the editors request has limited accessibility. It is a pleasure for Stormbringer! to be able to host this fantastic magazine and everything it represented to the game line.

“It is hoped that additional issues of Herald of Doom will be released over the coming year.” Any chance of seeing issues 2
-4 as pdfs? I’ve tried hunting down copies to buy but haven’t had much luck at all(it must be due to my low POW stat).

Unfortunately Malcolm seems a little reluctant to provide me the rest of the issues. I’ll keep asking however 😛

Hey! Nice! I just lost a ridiculous auction for print copies of HoD 1-4 over the weekend. Don’t I feel a little bit better now? 🙂
Also, cheers on the site re-work. It looks very nice indeed.
