==Notes==
The Astoundingly Awesome Tales magazines in Fallout 76 share identical titles and cover art from Fallout 4 but the bonuses they provide are all slightly different in addition to the effect duration being temporary.
==Behind the scenes==
* The name of the magazine is a take on pulp science-fiction/fantasy/adventure magazines such as Amazing Stories and Weird Tales.
* On the cover of "Rise of the Mutants!" the license plate reads "4LL-0WT-4" and "Bethesda MD," referencing the name Fallout 4 and Bethesda, Maryland, the original home of Bethesda Game Studios.
* The title "Have Dog, Will Travel!" is modeled after a phrase made popular by the television and radio show Have Gun – Will Travel.
* The issue "Invasion of the Zetans" refers to the aliens that the Lone Wanderer faces in the Fallout 3 add-on Mothership Zeta.
