Combo Cover No. 4 (Fall 1999)
Combo No. 4 (Fall 1999)

Edited by Michael Magee and published in association with the Kelly Writers House, Combo published a vital selection of younger poets over its twelve-issue run from 1998 to 2003. As originally stated, the journal combines “innovative writers under 40 alongside a few older and more established poets who have influenced them." However, over the course of the twelve issues, the reader can also chart the emergence of Flarf and related developments in poetry around the millennium.
