The
Exploits of the Patent Leather Kid by Erle Stanley Gardner, edited
by Bill Pronzini
The Patent Leather Kid is an elegant crook, hiding his identity
with mask, gloves, and shoes made out of black patent leather. In truth,
he is a wealthy, seemingly indolent socialite, who becomes a terror to the
underworld. In the gang-ridden world of the Depression, The Kid knows that
“the rulers of today were the corpses of tomorrow, where survival was the
price of keen observation and rapid thought.” His enemy, Inspector Brame,
believes that The Kid “is apparently one who loves adventure. His crimes
are committed for excitement, rather than gain. And, in everything he does,
he gives proof of a superior mentality.”This is the third volume in Crippen & Landru's collections of Erle Stanley Gardner's short stories. The book is edited by the modern master of the private-eye story, Bill Pronzini. It is also the 30th volume in our “Lost Classics” series. Cover Artist: Gail Cross Trade softcover, $19.00 ISBN 978-1-932009-88-0 Clothbound, $29.00 ISBN 978-1-932009-87-3 |

2011! The Special Collections Research Center's (SCRC) new exhibition opens this week. Orange Pulp: The Pulp Magazine and Contemporary Culture showcases the university's world-class collection of pulp magazines and pulp paintings--starting with the acquisition of the Street and Smith archive in 1967 and continuing through the acquisitions of the A.

Dear Pulpfest Community, I wanted to take an opportunity to reach out to the Pulpfest audience as I prepare to produce a documentary over the next year called Pulpsters, which will take a closer look at pulps and the people who collect/trade/buy & sell them at events like Pulpfest. I’m reaching out because I need your help! My production team and I are seeking several interested parties for on-camera interviews and even “collection tours,” as you pull back the curtain on your fandom and involvement in the pulp community. We would be interested in interviewing you in your home or office, on-camera, and perhaps even working with you over a weekend to have you show us how what pulps mean to you, why being a Pulpfest dealer or attendee matters and what influence the group and pulps have had on you personally. We’re taking a modestly budgeted approach,
and as a result we wouldn’t be able to provide compensation beyond the value
of communicating the love of pulps and the enrichment of the community in
which we’re all members. We will travel to you at your convenience to film
with you as schedules allow.
In addition, our goal is to attend Pulpfest 2011 next summer and cover the show from a documentary standpoint – to not only showcase the event but also the camaraderie shared between every attendee. As a filmmaker I know it is my responsibility to maintain honesty and integrity with what I’m showing, and so I am approaching Pulpsters with the utmost respect and admiration for not just the books themselves, but the community surrounding the niche audience and the people who have made pulp fests and conventions a regular part of their annual schedules. Having grown up through a pulp event I’ve been conditioned not to call by name, the Pulpfest scene has always been a part of life for me and my family. I look forward to hearing from those who are interested and willing to be a part of the Pulpsters production! Please feel free to reach out to me via email or telephone, and we can begin coordinating a date and time to discuss the world of pulps with you! |

| AudioComics - Pulp and Classic
Comic Heroes come to radio drama in the "Audiothology" MEN OF MYSTERY The Phantom Detective. The Woman in Red. The Domino Lady. Secret Agent X. The Black Terror. Airboy and Valkyrie. The Flame. Ms. Masque. Beginning in 2011, these classic pulp heroes and comic book characters from the 1930’s and 1940’s will come to audio drama for the first time in brand new stories from today’s leading pulp authors as The AudioComics Company presents its follow-up project to their critically-acclaimed adaptation of Elaine Lee and Michael Kaluta’s Starstruck: the MEN OF MYSTERY series. For these stories, we’re keeping these characters rooted in their origins and time periods: Hammett’s San Francisco and Chandler’s Los Angeles. California in the dirty thirties and forties was the new wild west: immoral, violent, and wearing the white hat and a badge didn’t mean you didn’t have suspect motives. With the lines so badly blurred, the only way to meter justice was behind a mask. Furthermore, characters such as The Black Terror and The Flame will be written with a ‘pulp sensibility,’ as if they were originally written as pulp heroes. Men of Mystery adventures will feature all of the suspense, all of the hard-boiled action, and the breakneck cliffhanger energy of classic movie serials. Writers and CD/Mp3 artists will be announced in the new year, with recordings commencing in late 2011 in San Francisco, beginning with several new Green Lama and Domino Lady stories. MoM plays will be released first as pay-per-download Mp3 serial recordings and then to community radio stations, with collected compact disc “audiothologies” available starting in 2012. In addition, The AudioComics Company will release several free short MoM pieces as digital content for mobile phones. |

| Hard Case Crime -
News Update! Bit by bit, we're getting closer to the re-launch of Hard Case Crime with our new publisher, Titan Books. Our backlist titles are already available for pre-order from bookstores and online booksellers such as Amazon.com and BN.com; copies will start shipping in February. And we've got new books on the way, too -- if you go to our Web site, www.HardCaseCrime.com, you'll find cover art and sample chapters for four upcoming titles, all of them brand new: GETTING OFF: A Novel of Sex and Violence by Lawrence Block (writing as Jill Emerson) -- The story of a beautiful young woman who sets off on a mission to kill every man she's ever slept with (and she's slept with quite a few). For this book, Lawrence Block is reviving a pseudonym he hasn't used in almost 40 years, under which he wrote seven particularly sexy books back in the day. When he saw how sexy this new one was coming out, he thought...that's the Jill Emerson in me coming out again... THE CONSUMMATA by Mickey Spillane and Max Allan Collins -- In the late 1960s, Mickey Spillane announced he was writing a new novel featuring the star of his bestseller THE DELTA FACTOR, but after writing half the book, he set he manuscript aside. Twenty years later, he handed the unfinished manuscript to his friend Max Allan Collins, suggesting that Max might finish it someday. And twenty-some years after that...it's finally done. It's the story of one thief going after another against the backdrop of Miami's Cuban-American community, and it's classic Spillane. Anyone who misses the Good Old Stuff will find plenty to love here. QUARRY'S EX by Max Allan Collins -- This is one I know you've been waiting for a long time, the next story in the saga of the hit man known as Quarry (star of THE LAST QUARRY, THE FIRST QUARRY, and QUARRY IN THE MIDDLE). This time, Quarry sets out to protect a movie director who's been marked for murder...only to discover that the director is married to Quarry's ex-wife, the woman whose infidelity pushed him into a life of crime in the first place. CHOKE HOLD by Christa Faust -- Another long-awaited title, this is the follow-up to Christa's Edgar Award-nominated MONEY SHOT. Ex-porn star Angel Dare is back; when a old co-star is gunned down in front of her, it's up to her to get his 18-year-old son, a hotheaded MMA fighter, to Las Vegas in one piece while two separate groups of killers are gunning for them.\ Lots to look forward to! Do check out the covers -- and if you're hungry for some great reading now, you can prepare for the new books coming out (which doesn't happen till September/October) by ordering any of the old ones you've missed. If you haven't met Quarry or Angel Dare yet, you're in for a treat -- grab yourself a copy of MONEY SHOT or the earlier Quarry books. For Spillane fans, there's DEAD STREET, Mickey's last novel. And we have five other books by Lawrence Block you can enjoy while waiting for GETTING OFF to come out: GRIFTER'S GAME, THE GIRL WITH THE LONG GREEN HEART, LUCKY AT CARDS, A DIET OF TREACLE, and KILLING CASTRO. Other news... Things are moving forward on the film adaptation of LITTLE GIRL LOST -- I spent an afternoon with the screenwriter who's penning the adaptation, showing him around some of the real-world locations where scenes from the book take place. (And scenes from its sequel, SONGS OF INNOCENCE. We checked out the tunnels under Columbia University, and the all-night tempura joint on Broadway, and FAO Schwarz...) No guarantee the movie will go before the cameras, but...every step we take makes it that much more likely. And HAVEN, the TV series based (loosely) on our 13th book, Stephen King's THE COLORADO KID, is gearing up for its second season on SyFy. The writers are working in a white-hot storytelling heat, with filming scheduled to begin in a few months. I'm biased, but I think the show really hit its stride in the second half of the season last year, and there are some great stories coming up. We don't have a premiere date yet for the second season, but I'll let you know as soon as we do. One final bit of news (if you'll forgive a bit of boasting by a proud father): the Ardai/Novik clan saw an addition in December, a baby girl named Evidence ("Evi" for short). We'll add a photo of her to the Web site just as soon as she's old enough to wear a fedora. Charles Ardai Editor, Hard Case Crime |

| Robert E. Howard Days - June 10 & 11, 2011! As the snows blow cold here in NW Indiana (and most parts of the country, actually) it’s the very best time to turn our thoughts to the warmer upcoming months. Specifically, Robert E. Howard Days in Cross Plains, Texas, is happening once again in 2011 (“officially”) on June 10 & 11. Hope you can make plans to be there. There will be many more details forthcoming this week as we get the REH Days Information Page tuned up for 2011, so hang with us and stay tuned. This year, under the sponsorship of The Robert E. Howard Foundation and Project Pride of Cross Plains, with assistance from the Robert E. Howard United Press Association, our “theme” is all about Howard History. 2011 marks four unique anniversaries upon which will will devote our festivities. Cross Plains, Texas is already celebrating it’s 100th anniversary as an incorporated town (you can follow this on Facebook right now), it’s the 75th year of honoring the Legacy of REH, it’s the 50th anniversary of Glenn Lord’s benchmark Howard publication, The Howard Collector, and it’s the 25th anniversary of the very first Robert E. Howard Days. Keeping that history angle in mind, we’ve chosen two Legendary REH publishers to be our Co-Guests of Honor this year: Damon Sasser and Dennis McHaney. Those of you familiar with Howard Fandom will of course recognize Damon and Dennis and we’re happy to have them at Howard Days to talk and be available to their legions of fans. Damon is the publisher of REH: Two-Gun Raconteur (“The definitive Howard Fanzine”) and runs the REH: TGR blog, and Dennis’ The Howard Review is his ultimate claim to fame (among others) in a nearly 40 year career as as a REH publisher. Dennis also runs the biggest REH message board at rehinnercircle.com. There’s lots more info to come here on the REHupa site, plus there’ll be info at the REH Foundation site, Damon’s TGR blog and Conan.com. We’re in the process of setting up the scheduling for Howard Days, plus there’ll be some truly fantastic events happening if everything falls into place this year. All of the familiar fan-friendly events are still happening: House & Town tours, Banquet & Silent Auction, Swap Meet, Postal Cancellation, Saturday BBQ plus a plethora of interesting panels & hopefully some special events. Ok, if that’s not enough enticement, keep your radio dial tuned here for updates and more detailed information. In the meantime, shouldn’t you be making your plans to get to Howard Days this year? We’ll be looking for you! Y’all come! |

Zorro
- DVD Release of the 1990 Duncan
Regehr Series - January 25th!
All 88 Episodes
of the Fan-Favorite Series - Not Seen Since Their Family Channel
Airing in the Early '90s - Finally Arrive in an Extras-Laden Collection Featuring The Original, Swashbuckling Douglas Fairbanks Film, The Mark of Zorro, Chapter 1 of the 1939 Theatrical Serial, Zorro's Fighting Legion, Never-Before-Seen Footage From the TV Series and Much, Much More! "Out of the night a hero must rise with courage that even a mask can't disguise!" So begins the celebrated adventures of Zorro: swordsman, scientist and relentless defender of the oppressed. Beginning in 1919, with the publication of Johnston McCulley's story, "The Curse of Capistrano", the legend of Zorro was further cemented a year later when Douglas Fairbanks and Mary Pickford produced The Mark of Zorro - with Fairbanks as the title character - as the inaugural film for United Artists. Since then, the swashbuckling hero has inspired more than 40 films and nearly a dozen TV series - one of which has been eagerly awaited by legions of fans for years. And, this January, the wait ends as A&E Home Entertainment unleashes ZORRO: THE COMPLETE SERIES in a heroic collector's set! |
 |
||||||||
| Filmed entirely
in Madrid, Spain, ZORRO aired on The Family Channel for four seasons, from
1990-1993, and, for the very first time, this spectacular DVD MegaSet™
collects all 88 episodes from the classic '90s series that brought Zorro
to life for a whole new generation of fans. The legend of Zorro begins
in the early 1800's, when Los Angeles was a dusty pueblo, the farthest
colonial outpost of the Spanish empire. This wild and untamed land was
governed by the Alcalde, a corrupt mayor whose word was law and whose law
was absolute. Young and dashing Don Diego de la Vega (Duncan Regehr, Monster
Squad), pretending to care only for science and study, secretly creates
a bold alter-ego: Zorro - the Fox. And aided by his mute servant Felipe,
inspired by the faith of the beautiful tavern-keeper Victoria, and carried
into battle by the mighty steed Toronado, the masked crusader thwarts the
Alcalde's plots at every turn. With his trademark whip and sword, he is
everywhere and nowhere, quick to defend the innocent and attack the guilty.
And he always leaves his trademark symbol 'Z,' - the mark of Zorro! Renowned for swashbuckling, edge-of-your-seat adventure as well as its top-notch cast, ZORRO featured Regehr and Emmy winner Henry Darrow ("The High Chapparal", "Santa Barbara") as Zorro's father, Don Alejandro de la Vega, as well as guest stars such as Daniel Craig (Quantum of Solace) , Pete Postlethwaite (Amistad, The Usual Suspects), Doug McClure (The Land That Time Forgot), Adam West ("Batman"), Warwick Davis (Willow), Andre the Giant, Philip Michael Thomas ("Miami Vice"), Jesse Ventura and many more! Aside from the 88 remastered episodes on 14 DVDs, ZORRO: THE COMPLETE SERIES also features an exclusive bonus disc presenting some of the masked defender's most influential appearances as well as rare behind-the-scenes material from the 1990 series. Included is "The Mark of Zorro" starring Douglas Fairbanks - the original, full-length silent film that defined the "swashbuckler" genre; Chapter 1 of the 1939 theatrical serial, Zorro's Fighting Legion; trailers for the serials Zorro's Fighting Legion, Zorro's Black Whip and Zorro Rides Again; the original, never-before-released pilot for the "New World Zorro" and a photo gallery from "New World Zorro". Day-and-date, A&E will also release the four seasons of ZORRO individually. ZORRO: THE COMPLETE SEASONS 1-3 are each comprised of 4 collector's discs and are priced at $29.95 sRP. THE COMPLETE SEASON FOUR, which wraps up the series, includes 2 DVDs and is priced at $19.95 SRP. Don't miss out on this fan favorite TV classic in which villains always learn that crime doesn't pay and that the people of Los Angeles can always count on "one who's larger than life and defender of all. He's the one who strikes back for the poor and oppressed. A hero...whose name is Zorro!" A&E Home Entertainment, part of the Consumer Products Division of A&E Television Networks (AETN) is a video distributor of non-theatrical programming, featuring collectible DVD editions of the high quality programming from A&E Network and HISTORY, as well as acquired classic programming. A&E Home Entertainment brings the best of critically acclaimed entertainment presented in award-winning packaging to the special interest category. ZORRO: THE COMPLETE SERIES

| The Green Hornet - New feature film debuts January 14th! The new Green Hornet film is directed by Michel Gondry and stars Seth Rogen, who co-wrote the screenplay with Evan Goldberg. Supporting actors include Jay Chou as Kato, Christoph Waltz, Cameron Diaz, Edward Furlong, Edward James Olmos, David Harbour, and Tom Wilkinson. Reviews have been mixed, but mostly on the negative side. Critics say that The Green Hornet doesn't quite succeed as a superhero flick or as a subversive send-up of the genre. The pundits say The Green Hornet has moments of inspiration, and that Chou is excellent, but that Gondry's typical good humor is mostly missing here, resulting in a strange mix of wisecracking and ultra-violence that never quite gels. |

MGM has not yet announced a distribution partner for the film, but it is set to go into production later this year. Paramount Pictures has informally gotten a first crack at the negotiation for distribution partner. The other contender is Sony Pictures, which successfully released the last two Bond films and is said to be on good terms with the Broccoli family, owner of the Bond rights. Despite that, a knowledgeable source says the Broccolis have approved Paramount as a prospective distributor and that preliminary talks have begun. |

| Black Coat Press: THE DESTINY OF
FU MANCHU by William Patrick Maynard - Coming December 2011! Michael Knox is the brash and arrogant assistant of renowned archaeologist Dr. Spiridon Simos. A chance encounter with a beautiful Egyptian woman at Dr. Simos' wedding in Corfu leads the young man on a whirlwind journey to Cairo where he barely survives the terrifying reincarnation of the ancient Pharaoh Khunum-Khufu. A chain of events quickly unfold that embroils Knox with obsessive British agent, Sir Denis Nayland Smith, and his pursuit of the master criminal, Dr. Fu Manchu. Slowly, the young man begins to piece together the threat posed to the world as Fu Manchu and his seductive, but sadistic daughter Koreani tear the dread secret society, the Si-Fan, apart. Before Michael Knox can act on the intelligence in his possession, he must first survive death in a myriad of strange guises from a savage gorilla trained to crush a man's spine to the unrelenting pursuit of Margarita, the disarming dwarf assassin who brings terror to the Orient Express, to one thousand poisonous butterflies unleashed at the Munich Conference as Europe teeters on the brink of a Second World War. As madness sweeps the globe, one hedonistic young man must examine his own life as he realizes the world's future hangs in the balance. The action moves swiftly from Greece to Egypt to Africa to Europe in a breathtaking battle of ideologies as Sax Rohmer's infamous creation seeks to realize THE DESTINY OF FU MANCHU... 5x8 trade paperback |
