The Squire of Gothos, the inventor of technical gadgets for 007 and the affectionate nickname for the fanzine Quandry, edited by Lee Hoffman. It was also used later to refer to Arnie Katz's 1960s fanzine Quip – but usually only within the pages of Quip.

From Fancyclopedia 2, ca. 1959
The criticisms of Q's existence as a member of the alphabet, tho many and eloquent, are all refuted by the consideration that without it there could have been no QUANDRY.

From Fancyclopedia 1, ca. 1944
The criticisms of Q's existence as a member of the alfabet are so obvious that we will not go into them here.

-Neither the Squire of Gothos nor the inventor of technical gadgets for 007 but rather the affectionate nickname for ''[[Quandry]]'', the [[Focal Point]] of [[Sixth Fandom]] edited by [[Lee Hoffman]]. The 30-issue run is regarded as perhaps the finest example of the [[fannish]] [[fanzine]], taken as a whole. Yes, it‘s a misspelling of "Quandary." (It was also used later to refer to [[Arnie Katz]]'s 1960s fanzine ''[[Quip]]'' – but usually only within the pages of ''[[Quip]]'' and even though [[Arnie Katz|Arnie]]'s [[fanzine]] was one of the finest of its period, as a general rule if you see or hear someone referring to "Q" today, unless they're [[Trekkies]] or fans of James Bond, they're most likely referring to [[LeeH]]'s [[fanzine]].)
