AIRSHIP 27 PODCAST (JUNE '23): READY FOR LIFTOFF

After a long hiatus, Airship 27 masterminds, Ron Fortier and Rob Davis, are back with bountiful, New Pulp updates.

The fellows open by covering the five books they've released since the last podcast, and they're all dandies: Phillip Pan (aka Michael Panush)'s Mark Justice's The Dead Sheriff, Vol 5: A Cold and Lonesome Grave; Nancy Hansen's The Silver Pentacle, Vol 2; Bob Madison's The Lucifer Stone; Lee Houston Jr's Solitaire; and Michael Panush's The Blood Spiller's Quarry: A Novel of the Stone Law

Also, the fellows inform us that Jonathan Casey's After Sunset and Sherlock Holmes, Consulting Detective, Vol 19 are close to completion. Each edition is in need of a cover, and each is in the works. 

Ron also discusses the resurgence of his alternate-reality, female-team comic-book saga, The Boston Bombers, which highlights a world shaped by a female Christ and where The Roman Empire still exists. Ron sculpted this parallel vision years ago, and it's since secured a significant, cult following. (Even the late Harlan Ellison was a fan and phoned Ron to express his appreciation of it.) The first issue (in a proposed quartet) springs from Ka-Boom! and Rob's Redbud Studio; it'll be sold by the ever reliable Indy Planet. (More details to come!)
