American Mythology Productions
Michael W. Kaluta to join the
Zorro team!
The company that announced to fans a new line of Zorro comics just
last month, promising to take the iconic fan favorite character in bold new
directions, has another major announcement regarding the comic series. Renowned
comic artist Michael Kaluta has signed on to produce art for the books, helping
to lead up to the character’s 100th-year celebration in 2019.
Kaluta, a staple in the comic book community since the early 1970’s, began
his career with work on Edgar Rice Burroughs novel adaptations for DC comics
and made a name for himself with his elaborate panel designs and books like
The Shadow in 1973-74. Kaluta has worked with a number of major comic
book publishers over his career, such as Marvel, DC, Dark Horse, Vertigo,
IDW, and now American Mythology.
He is a multi-award-winning artist for his work in comics over the last
five decades. No stranger to pulp hero action, he promises to pack even more
punch to an already exciting series taking Zorro into dark waters as he battles
supernatural beings and demonic forces. The artist’s work will be showcased
beginning with the new series' planned second story arc Zorro: Sacrilege.
Fans of the artist will have even more to celebrate as Kaluta looks to return
to his ERB roots by contributing to American Mythology’s upcoming Carson of
Venus series and the horror title, Eternal Thirst of Dracula.
The first story arc for the Zorro series will be written by David Avallone
(“Doc Savage: The Ring of Fire,” “The Twilight Zone: The Shadow”). Avallone
is excited to take the hero in a fresh direction, not an easy task for a
character pushing 100. “I was thrilled when American Mythology asked
me to write such an iconic pulp hero; the guy who showed the Shadow and Batman
how it’s done.”

The Astounding Illustrated History of Science Fiction
(Inspirations & Techniques) - Now available!
by Dave Golder (Author), Jess Nevins (Author), Pat Mills (Foreword),
David Langford (Consultant Editor)
A truly astonishing, illustrated history of Science fiction, covering
fantasy, and horror, with forays into crime, mystery and the gothic. Using
timelines, online links, illustrations, posters, movie stills, book covers,
and more, this amazing new book propels us into the well of modern imagination,
from its roots in Frankenstein, through Verne, H.G. Wells, the late gothic
and weird horror of Lovecraft to the mass market sensationalism of the Pulp
magazines. The Pulps then invoked a new generation of writers (such as Ray
Bradbury and Robert Bloch) of the Golden Age before many transitioned to screenwriting
for the movies and early TV (Psycho, Star Trek, Twilight Zone), inspiring,
in turn, the invasion of superheroes, gigantic spaceships, and dystopian
landscapes onto our data-streaming tablets and computers. The book explores
the interplay between great writers, (Asimov and Arthur C. Clarke) and story-telling
directors (Kubrick, James Cameron, Ridley Scott, Christopher Nolan, George
Lucas) who create powerful Sci-Fi, reflecting and challenging the developments
of technology, science and society. Each have played a major role in this
all-consuming, speculative form of world-building, from its early manifestation
as a shocking literary event, to the mass market sensation is today.

of The Messiah of the Cylinder and Draft of Eternity.
The Atom Smasher
A blinding light, the frantic oscillation of the Atom Smasher— and two

Tode can decide.
Revolt on Inferno
Banished from Earth and sent to a doomed planet, fifty men—and one woman—find
themselves condemned to a fate worse than death!

Blood 'N' Thunder / Murania
Press
Edited by Ed
Hulse
Now available and begins shipping May 7!
Webster's Dictionary describes Potpourri as "a miscellaneous collection."
Murania Press describes Pulpourri as "a miscellaneous collection of well-written,
impeccably researched essays on pulp fiction and how it influenced American
popular culture of the late 19th and early 20th centuries."
This latest volume in the BLOOD 'N' THUNDER PRESENTS series has been assembled
by Ed Hulse, co-editor of Amazon's best-selling THE ART OF THE PULPS, from
contributions by some of today's most distinguished pop-culture scholars and
archeologists. Their lengthy, informative essays are profusely illustrated
with pulp and book covers, interior artwork, rare photographs, and movie posters.
And the works herein are new to this volume, not culled from back issues
of BLOOD 'N' THUNDER.
Hulse leads off the book with a 15,000-word piece on the masterwork of
celebrated mystery writer Mary Roberts Rinehart: THE BAT, which began life
as a 1907 pulp yarn and over the next several decades was revived in books,
movies, and even a hit Broadway play. More importantly, it influenced the
creation of Batman by Bob Kane and Bill Finger.
In other essays: Jeffrey Shanks looks at colonialism in the pulps. Dave
Smith chronicles the exploits of the original Suicide Squad, a trio of hard-charging
FBI agents from the pulp ACE G-MAN STORIES. Laurie Powers profiles Street
& Smith's top female editor, Daisy Bacon, who made LOVE STORY MAGAZINE
the top-selling pulp and ended her career trying to revive the flagging SHADOW
and DOC SAVAGE pulps. Will Murray reveals the early literary efforts of Robert
Maxwell, best known for producing the ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN radio and TV
shows but also a prolific contributor to the notorious girlie pulps published
by DC Comics head honcho Harry Donenfeld. And in a massive (18,000 words),
exhaustively researched piece, Rick Lai discusses the use of ancient religion
and mythology in the works of Conan creator Robert E. Howard. This essay is
accompanied by a reprint of Howard's "Black Talons," a weird mystery from
1933 and one of his most obscure stories.
In the realm of motion pictures adapted from pulp yarns, Ed Hulse documents
the making of HAWK OF THE WILDERNESS, the 1938 Republic serial version of
William L. Chester's classic adventure yarn from BLUE BOOK magazine. And we
present what may be the only surviving photos taken on location during production
of the aborted 1935 film featuring Street & Smith's Western-pulp hero
Pete Rice.

The Last
Redhead
By John French
Now availble!
Sometimes you do it for the money.
Sometimes you do it for the thrill.
But usually, you do it for the girl.
What is “hardboiled” fiction? The
girl you gave a ride to, without mentioning it to your wife … The “sure thing”
at the race track … The payroll money “no one” will miss … “Hardboiled” fiction
is a regrettable mistake … and sometimes people don’t live to regret.
John L. French demonstrates “hardboiled” in 22 stories. Read them before
you inevitably throw caution to the wind …
JOHN L. FRENCH has worked for over 40 years as a crime scene investigator.
As a break from the realities of his job, he writes science fiction, pulp,
horror, fantasy, and (of course) crime fiction.

By the creator of Zorro!
Thubway Tham -- A lisping pickpocket with delusions of grandeur.
The Crimson Clown -- A “gentleman thief” who justifies his crimes with
charitable donations.
Baron Bleud -- His legitimate business fronts hide the revenue from his
criminal enterprises.
With the police watching him, Thubway Tham decides to lay low — but The
Crimson Clown has other plans. Tham can help him pilfer the stolen Cragham
Jewels from The Baron … or die!
This Bold Venture edition collects the complete text of Johnston McCulley's

Clive Cussler: The Gray Ghost (A Sam and Remi Fargo
Adventure) - Coming May 29!
With Robin Burcell
In 1906, a groundbreaking Rolls-Royce prototype known as the Gray
Ghost vanishes from the streets of Manchester, England, and it is only the
lucky intervention of an American detective named Isaac Bell that prevents
it from being lost forever. Not even he can save the good name of Jonathan
Payton, however, the man wrongly blamed for the theft, and more than a hundred
years later, it is his grandson who turns to Sam and Remi Fargo to help prove
his grandfather's innocence.
But there is even more at stake than any of them know. For the car has
vanished again, and in it is an object so rare that it has the capacity to
change lives. Men with everything to gain and a great deal to lose have a
desperate plan to find it--and if anybody gets in their way? They have a
plan for that, too.

Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc.
UNTAMED PELLUCIDAR
By Lee Strong
Illustrated by Douglas Klauba
Now available in hardcover!
Northern Russia, 1924: The Red Army is eliminating those who resist
the fledgling Soviet government. At The Battle of the Plutonian Plain, the
White Russian forces, aided by wily American Edgar Rice Burroughs, do not
fall, instead retreating into the dangers of Pellucidar. Comrade Trotsky,
the Soviet leader, sends his troops to hunt them down—and destroy them.
Mikhail Kirillivitch Kirov, a young conscript caught up in this mad scheme,
is fascinated by this new world. Formerly a student anthropologist, he finds
Pellucidar’s Stone Age landscape and inhabitants a revelation—until he’s grabbed
by a mammoth Skal and flown back to its aerie to feed its giant offspring.
Thus begins Kirov’s astounding adventure in the Northern environs of Pellucidar,
rife with its incredible Paleolithic animal life, including Skals, Trals and
Dyals, tremendous birds with sharp talons and fierce beaks; Ryths, the huge
Stone Age cave bears whose claws can tear a man apart; and the vicious Jaloks,
hyaenodons whose wild packs slaughter their prey mercilessly. These and other
fantastic beasts stalk Kirov as he navigates the complex world of Pellucidar’s
most dangerous predator: Man.
To survive, Kirov must escape slavery from the Beautiful Ala and her mighty
Black Birdriders, foster a civil war, impress the natives with his “inventions,”
conquer the terrifying Pulka Horde, and become a warlord of several tribes
as they flee the Soviet invaders. It’s a tale in the grand tradition of Edgar
Rice Burroughs’ epic adventures at The Earth’s Core.
AUTHOR
Lee Strong’s heart was captured by the dinosaurs found At the Earth’s Core
in 1962—he has been a Burroughs reader ever since. Lee also worked for the
US Department of Defense (DOD); changed international policy with a single
report; deployed to Kuwait; saved taxpayers $5 million; and reformed the $2
billion DOD Personal Property Program. A Soldier of Poloda is Lee’s first
novel. He is currently working on two Pellucidar novels with more to come.
Lee’s motto: More Adventure ! More Excitement !! More Burroughs !!!

After his first appearance in 1912 in an American pulp magazine,
Edgar Rice Burroughs’ literary character Tarzan® became one of the most
significant pop culture characters of the 20th century and the first quintessential
superhero.
Published in over 20 novels and translated into more than 50 languages,
the story of a feral boy raised by great apes was an immediate sensation,
spawning radio shows, newspaper comic strips, graphic novels, multiple TV
series and countless movies.
Though the vine-swinging Tarzan® proved hugely popular amongst audiences,
he was often met with much controversy and criticism. Despite the many heated
debates surrounding Tarzan, the character nonetheless became a versatile vehicle
for highlighting important topics including animal cruelty, colonialism, slavery
and the current morals of society. Even Tarzan's® primitivist "return
to nature" philosophy remains relevant today, further illustrating why this
legendary figure has endured generations of cultural change and continues
to be such a compelling and timeless hero.
From past to present, Tarzan®: Revisited explores the character's extraordinary
evolution, giving a detailed overview of how he was first created, behind-the-scenes
stories surrounding his innumerable media incarnations, and a fascinating
insight into his longevity and legacy in pop culture.

New on Famous (and forgotten) Fiction!
May 2018
Many parodies of Sherlock Holmes have been done over the years,
but none had quite the insider's point of view than those done by James M.
Barrie. In "The Late Sherlock Holmes," Barrie not only gives a twist
to the events of "The Adventure of the Final Problem," and the Holmes canon
in general, but also gives an original solution to who really killed Holmes
(remember, it is a parody).
Due to all the in-jokes and references, we've produced an annotated version
of the pastiche and whether you are a seasoned Sherlockian or a neophyte,
we think you will find it enjoyable.
April 2018
Continuing our reprinting of Edmond Hamilton, we present "The Atomic Conquerors," from the August, 1926 issue
of Weird Tales with the original title art and an introduction by Bob Gay.
Also, a bit of humor by the artist Stanley L. Wood, in an article entitled
“Authors—from an Artist's Standpoint,” wherein Wood demonstrates
that he had not only a very sharp wit, but also a gift for caricature, just
as it appeared in the March, 1904 issue of Pearson's Magazine (UK).
March 2018
Since the flu season was a bit rougher than normal this year, we
thought it was a good time to resurrect a short novel by Jack London, The Scarlet Plague, which tells of the end of civilization
due to a rather nasty disease.
We have reproduced all the Gordon Grant illustrations, all the text and
have thrown in an introduction by Bob Gay that sets the novel in context.
January 2018
A tale of romance and piracy with a twist...The She Fiend (by an unknown author) gives us a female
pirate with all the cunning and wiles of the Dragon Lady. Introduction
is by Dan Neyer.
December 2017
This month we present for your approval the very first published
story by F. Scott Fitzgerald, "The Mystery of the Raymond Mortgage."
We have tried to put together a "definitive" edition of this early work
and hope you enjoy it. Introduction by Bob Gay.
November 2017
Since the we are in the midst of the holiday season, we thought
a Christmas offering might be appreciated, and so we are happy to present
a story by
Bret Harte, "How Santa Claus Came to Simpson's Bar," just as it
appeared (with a few editorial interpolations) in the March, 1872 issue of
The Atlantic Monthly. Introductory notes are by Bob Gay.

Jumpin’ Jungle Cats of Jupiter! It’s another mega-collection of
four complete novels of the “Man of Tomorrow,” the “Wizard of Science,” the
protector of the Solar System and a menace to evil-doers throughout the universe:
CAPTAIN FUTURE!
Now that Captain Future (aka Dr. Curtis Newton) and the Futuremen (Grag
the robot; Otho the Android; and Simon Wright, the Living Brain) have traveled
not only through time but to another universe in the final story of Volume
Three (See “Planets in Peril”), what other dangers will our heroes encounter?
Well, THE FACE OF THE DEEP sees the Futuremen stranded outside the Solar
System on a volcanic planetoid in the company of a shipload of condemned criminals.
Up next is WORLDS TO COME (written by Joseph Samachson) where Curt and his
crew speed to the rescue of the Sagittarian system—ready to battle in mortal
combat with nightmare enemies from another dimension. Edmond Hamilton
(writing as Brett Sterling) returns with THE STAR OF DREAD wherein our heroes
ply their stock-in-trade by exposing a dangerous secret menacing humanity
and taking desperate risks pursuing two scheming miscreants across the void!
Closing out this penultimate volume of the novel-length adventures of The
Futuremen is MAGIC MOON. Adorned by one of Earle K. Bergey’s finest cover
paintings, we see conspirators plotting to seize the satellite Styx, third
moon of Pluto, enslaving the peaceful natives, and putting Captain Future
and his trusty aides on their most dangerous mission ever!
As with the previous three volumes of THE COLLECTED CAPTAIN FUTURE, “Under
Observation,” the CAPTAIN FUTURE letters column is reprinted, and the original
pulp covers and interior illustrations are reproduced in a generous appendix.

ILLUSTRATED CALL OF CTHULHU HC - Now available!
(Writer) H. P. Lovecraft (Art) Gary Gianni
Written in 1928, H.P. Lovecraft's Call of Cthulhu defined the ancient
gods as dark creatures who came from the stars and ruled the world before
mankind. When these ancient ones awaken, humanity is plagued by a nightmare
of terrors etched upon an epic backdrop. Artist Gary Gianni and designer Marcelo
Anciano both felt that Lovecraft's short story presented an opportunity to
visually expand the Cthulhu mythos and push the boundaries of illustrated
books. This book is a fusion of the graphic novel, the illustrated book and
cinematic design. Over a hundred drawings enhance and bring to life the work
of two visionaries — Lovecraft and Gianni — in an extraordinary feat of storytelling
and art.

THE THING’S INCREDIBLE!
THE SECRET ORIGINS OF WEIRD TALES
by John Locke
Coming soon!
The Thing’s Incredible! is a sweeping revisionist history of the
founding of Weird Tales, one of the most influential and entertaining pulp
magazines of them all.
Its first two years (1923-24) was a period of tumult and controversy unequalled
in the pulps, before or since, an experience so painful to its creators that
they immediately banished their memories to secrecy, their code of silence
suppressing the story for almost a century. Here at last is the true saga,
the unraveling of the many twisted threads which have bound the creation of
Weird Tales in mystery.
Who were Henneberger and Lansinger, the co-founders, and what circuitous
chain of events brought about their doomed destiny?
How did the first editor, the outspoken and uncontrollable Edwin Baird,
become the wild man of the pulps?
What dark secrets lay buried in second editor Farnsworth Wright’s haunted
past that he never dared speak of?
What was the significance of the constantly mutating “reorganization” that
united two legends, world-famous magician Houdini and horror author H.P. Lovecraft,
into a grand nexus of weird?
How did Henneberger lose control of his slow-motion disaster of a magazine?
And how did an all-out war behind the scenes lead to the long peace of
the Wright years?
This is the grand story of the challenges in establishing a radical, new
magazine in the early 1920s—and not just any magazine, but the immortal Weird
Tales.
John Locke is a leading historian of the pulps who has written on magazines
famous and obscure. He is co-author (with Doug Ellis and John Gunnison) of
the pioneering Adventure House Guide to the Pulps. His writers’ mag series
(Pulp Fictioneers, Pulpwood Days) explores the history of the pulps through
the experiences of the participants in the industry. He applied the same approach
to Weird Tales and discovered a story stranger—and thornier—than he ever
imagined.

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Pittsburgh – Cranberry,
Pennsylvania
Guest of Honor — Joe Lansdale
Thursday, July 26 through
Sunday, July 29, 2018
Are you thinking
about attending PulpFest 2018?
You’re probably wondering what to expect from this year’s convention.
PulpFest is known for its great programming and the line-up that we’re
planning for next year’s convention is shaping up to be one of our best.
2018 marks the centennial of the armistice that ended the First World War.
Also called “The War to End All Wars” and “The Great War,” PulpFest — The
Great Convention — will be honoring the 100th anniversary
of the war’s end by focusing on the so-called “war pulps” of the
early twentieth century and the depiction of war in popular culture.
We’ll explore the work of Leonard H. Nason — who wrote about soldiers and
war for ADVENTURE and other magazines —
and have presentations on artistic interpretations of war in comic books,
pulps, and men’s adventure magazines.
Author and anthologist Don Hutchison will moderate a panel on “Fighting
Aces of War Skies: The Pulps Take Flight” and
Henry G. Franke, III — the editor of THE BURROUGHS BULLETIN — will
discuss “Edgar Rice Burroughs and The Great War.”
Also, Robert Gould will talk about his father — John Fleming Gould — the
interior artist who illustrated every issue of G-8 AND HIS BATTLE ACES.
We’ll also be celebrating the century mark of Grand Master of Science Fiction
Philip José Farmer.
PulpFest and its associated convention — FarmerCon — will be saluting the
acclaimed author of such works as ESCAPE FROM LOKI, THE DARK HEART OF TIME,
the classic Riverworld series, and more.
Join us for panels and presentations on “World Building and Writing in
the Nine Continuity,” “The Dark Heart of Loki: Philip José Farmer
Revisits 1918,” and the life and legacy of Philip José Farmer.
We’ll also be showing the French documentary MOI, TARZAN, featuring Farmer,
George McWhorter, and Francis Lacassin.
And don’t forget about our Guest of Honor — Joe Lansdale — the author of
over forty novels and numerous short stories.
Winner of the Edgar Award, ten Bram Stoker Awards, the Horror Writers Association
Lifetime Achievement Award,
the British Fantasy Award, the Inkpot Award for Contributions to Science
Fiction and Fantasy, and many other awards,
Joe will be talking with Tony Davis — editor emeritus of THE PULPSTER and
winner of the 1999 Lamont Award — on Saturday evening, July 28, in the PulpFest
programming room.
Mr. Lansdale will also be available at other times during the convention.

Ar-I-E-ch and the Spell of Cthulhu: An Informal Guide to
Robert E. Howard's Lovecraftian Fiction
What Lurks in Realms Beyond
Robert E. Howard's correspondence with H.P. Lovecraft inspired the
two-fisted creator of Conan the Barbarian to pit his square-jawed modern heroes
against cosmic horrors, colossal beasts, and cannibalistic children of the
night, in a short-lived effort to open new markets for his fiction.
In this book, the first in the "Informal Guide to Robert E. Howard" series,
Howard scholar Fred Blosser analyzes each of REH's Cthulhu Mythos stories,
unpacking their plots, their themes, and their unexpected linkages to Howard's
other works.
Along with his stories set in the Cthulhu Mythos, REH also wrote tales
inspired by Lovecraftian themes, but not part of the Mythos itself. Blosser
looks at each of these stories as well.
Though Howard couldn't match Lovecraft's dreamy, sinuous prose, nor did
he much care for the timid Lovecraftian "hero", his small canon of Cthulhu
fiction expanded the Mythos and gave us men (and sometimes women) not afraid
to challenge the cosmic terrors that threatened their sanity and their souls.
With Blosser as your guide, you'll shake loose from Conan and experience
an important but often overlooked facet of Robert E. Howard's storytelling
genius.
The book includes a selected reading list, a study of elder horrors in
the Kull stories, and an examination of a trio of tales that REH set in a
most unlikely locale (for him): the haunted seaport.
Paperback: 124 pages
Publisher: Pulp Hero Press
Product Dimensions: 5.5 x 8.5 inches
$14.95
Western Weirdness and Voodoo Vengeance: An Informal Guide
to Robert E. Howard's American Horrors
What Stalks the American West...
Before he invented the Hyborian Age and Conan the Barbarian, Robert E.
Howard populated the arid plains of his native Texas and the fetid swamps
of nearly Lousiana with cultists, demons, dark gods, and unspeakable things
from the dawn of time and from fever-haunted realms of lunacy.
In this book, the second in the "Informal Guide to Robert E. Howard" series,
Howard scholar Fred Blosser analyzes each of REH's regional stories, unpacking
their plots, their themes, and their unexpected linkages to Howard's other
works.
Despite its quality, Howard's regional fiction is relatively unknown today.
Instead of lusty barbarians, the heroes in these tales are two-fisted rural
everymen caught up in infernal schemes beyond their ken. With six-shooter
in place of sword, they meet toe-to-toe the depraved horrors and gibbering
monstrosities that gather in remote cabins, dismal plantations, and small,
secret-ridden towns.
With Blosser as your guide, you'll shake loose from Conan and experience
an important but often overlooked facet of Robert E. Howard's storytelling
genius.
The book includes a selected reading list and a lengthy discussion of Roy
Thomas' adaptation of REH's better regional fiction into sword-and-sorcery
tales for Marvel's Conan the Barbarian comic book.

The Spider #62 Audiobook
Scourge of the Black Legions
by Norvell W. Page writing as Grant Stockbridge
Read by Nick Santa Maria
Now available!
Over New York had swept the Master’s dread Black Police — wiping
out the last organized resistance to their ruthless Underworld rule of the
Empire State! Only Richard Wentworth, his forces scattered, could hope to
succeed where thousands had failed — and, attired in the Spider’s somber garb,
strike one last desperate blow at the master-murderer who had sacked a state
to make a fortune out of dead men’s bones!
By 1938, Richard Wentworth had been operating as the Spider for nearly
five harrowing years. He had been through everything a good pulp hero could
expect to face. Malevolent master villains. Sinister Asian world conquerors.
Mad scientists more diabolical than anything conceived before that point.
And of course since the Spider was a wanted criminal, endless police officials,
uniformed cops, homicide detectives and other officers of the law had been
pursuing him with single-minded fervor.
|
|
A mere mortal would have succumbed back in 1933. Not the indomitable Richard
Wentworth. He seemed to thrive on conditions of continuous peril. Yes, he
did put down his mask and guns a time or two, vowing never to become the dreaded
Spider again. But the call to battle always made his blood sing, and inevitably
the Master of Men returned to battle the underworld in another blazing exploit.
Never before or since has there been a hero like him. Driven, hunted, and
violently committed to exterminating criminals of all calibers. A self-appointed
savior of humanity, driven manic-depressive, and possibly undiagnosed paranoid
schizophrenic, the Spider was known as the Master of Men.
Nick Santa Maria once again brings the Spider to life in Scourge of the
Black Legions. Originally published in The Spider magazine, November, 1938.

Total Pulp Experience. These exciting
pulp adventures have been beautifully reformatted for easy reading as an eBook
and features every story, every editorial, and every column of the original
pulp magazine.
Dare-Devil Aces was another of the many pulps that rode the wave
of popularity of World War I aviation tales in the decade after the conflict.
It made its debut in February 1932 and lasted for an astounding 135 issues.
It finally closed after World War II ended, with the November 1946 issue.
During its run, it presented a wide assortment of high-flying aerial series,
including The Red Falcon, The Vanished Legion, The Three Mosquitoes, Molloy
and McNamara, The Black Sheep of Belogue, The Mongol Ace, Chinese Brady, Captain
Babyface, Smoke Wade and others. Strap on your flying helmet, toss that scarf
about your neck and get ready for some soaring action in the skies over France
and Germany during the Great War. Dare-Devil Aces return in vintage pulp
tales, reissued for today’s readers in electronic format.

Now available!
Tarzan and the Lion Man, Synthetic Men of Mars covers
These newly released dust-jackets are as clean as possible.

The dark gold on the cover contains bright flecks that simulate the metallic

This is reconstructed from the true first edition jacket, not the more
common jacket that was issued on the Grosset & Dunlap reprint, the "red
Tarzana" and subsequent ERB, Inc. reprints.
SYNTHETIC MEN OF MARS uses a scan of the original John Coleman Burroughs
painting on both cover and spine.
The original was smoke damaged in the 1953 fire but I've managed to digitally
clean it up while retaining the detail of the brushwork. Click on the image

SALLY THE SLEUTH -
Now available and arriving soon in comic shops!
(Writer/Art/Cover) Adolph Barreaux
One of the premiere detectives of the dirty, sordid era of pulp
comics of the 1930s, returns in a whole new collection.
This collection features her scandalous adventures as a detective's assistant
in her original black and white appearances in the Spicy Detective Stories
pulps, and her later return in the cleaned up color comics of Crime Smashers.
Take a tour through the wild evolution of crime comics from the 1930s through
the 1950s. Sally, of the Central Bureau, proved in her run of adventures that
women could be anything: murderous doctors, gang leaders, gun molls, victimized
starlets, and even detectives. Only Sally, with her uncanny ability to fight
crime even partially nude, can bust the evil-doers of her city, along with
her diminutive sidekick Peanuts.
A sexually exploitative pulp turned wholesome crime-fighting comic, in
all her incarnations Sally the Sleuth proves herself to be a daring, risk-taking
detective available to do anything to crack a case!
