  1. Creepy no. 11 (1966)

    A rather unusual-looking Frazetta, much more brightly coloured and lit than most of his output, but a great composition and sense of movement.

  10. The ancient symbol of Chaos is not represented in Unicode and that makes me mad.

    Yes, for the symbol of Law We have ↑, but there is no symbol in which eight arrows all point from a common origin, each at one of the cardinal or intercardinal compass directions.

    The best we have is ☸ but it's not made of arrows, is too circley, and is already taken by some stupid supposedly """ancient""" religion.

    BAH/Humbug!

  14. Rip #PeterDavid I will always love your obscure works like Psi Man and Sir Apropros of Nothing more than your mainstream work, but its only because those books were strangely formative for me. @bookstodon #books #pulpFiction

  16. Damn if these AI generated images aren't getting better. Popped this prompt into Google's ImageFX and have a SF pulp book cover!

    The prompt: A low angle of a landscape of the moon as if the camera was there. Very stark lighting, with strong shadows cast over the craters and mountains in the background. Stylized as a 1950's pulp novel cover. A brushed silver rocket ship stands in the foreground. A very large lunar mining colony is in the middle ground. A tracked capsul-shaped rover is returning to the colony from the ship. Spacesuited figures are near the bottom of the ship.

  17. The Festival of the Dead, a fine collection of tales by Sidney Herschel Small published in the pulps in 1931, set in San Francisco’s Chinatown. Plenty of action and paranoia as a Chinese-speaking cop battles a diabolical criminal mastermind.

  19. Hollow Earth Tales, a collection of sci-fi stories written from 1909 to 1939 dealing with the idea of a hollow earth or undiscovered civilisations deep beneath the Earth. The stories are interestingly varied, often outrageous and generally fun.

  21. The Polar Treasure, the 4th Doc Savage novel, written by Lester Dent in 1933. A blind violinist is one of only two survivors of a ship lost in the Arctic. The fate of that ship is crucial. Non-stop action in the frozen wastes. Great stuff.

  23. #PulpFiction #magazines, like #AmazingStories, #WeirdTales, #DocSavage, #TheShadow, & hundreds more, pulled us through the 1940s toward the millennium.

    For 30+ years #RustyHevelin ran the original #PulpCon here in #DaytonOhio. Collectors visited us annually. Now, we've essentially run out of #PulpMagazines & the evolved #PulpFest has moved to PA. I miss the books & their fans.

    #Pulps are fragile & difficult to find in any condition. Perhaps we let some go too easily...

  24. F.L. Wallace’s scifi novel Address: Centauri (1955). In the future everyone is physically perfect, except the Accidentals who are very imperfect but long-lived making them ideal for deep space exploration. Deals obliquely with posthumanism.

  26. If These Be Gods is a 1957 sci-fi novella by Algis Budrys. An airliner encounters a UFO. An alien invasion story with some twists and with aliens who might be friendly or malevolent. Interesting for the varied reactions of the humans. Not bad.
