MAIN ENTERPRISES' PULP FAN #6: SAVAGE SUBMISSIONS

Ah, what adventurous wonders await in Main Enterprises' Pulp Fan #6!

As with previous issues, Doc Savage rules in articles on the Man of Bronze's legacy by Dennis Kininger, in "Bring on the Bad Guys" (an overview of Doc's arch adversaries); Will Murray on "The Four-Piece Affair" (a respectful focus on writer Walter Ryerson); and yours truly with "Toxic Masculinity! The Art of Emery Clarke" (a master of many of Doc's most striking images). And as a swell bonus, these prodigious articles are ushered by Jim Main's homespun "The Publisher Speaks".

To embolden the Savage essays, Pulp Fan #6's artwork springs from the aforementioned Clarke, Paul Orban, James Bama, Walter Baumhoffer, Joe DeVito, Kevin Dale Duncan, John Lambert, and Brad Olrich's dignified, Doc-and-crew/Orban-homage front cover. 

As always, Main Enterprises serves stunning layouts by the peerless Robert J. Sodaro, which makes Pulp Fan #6 yet another aesthetic collectible to own and exalt.

To order Pulp Fan #6, send a check or money order of $11.00 (which includes shipping exclusive to the U.S.) to Jim Main; 130 Wellsville Av; Back of House; New Milford, CT 06776. PDFs are available for $2.00. If one wishes, one can Paypal Mr. Main for either format at jmain44@aol.com. No matter the payment method, one is certain to be satisfied with the savage results.  

 

WRITING UPDATES:

I've finished my Star Trek--TMP piece for Main Enterprises' What Ever! #5! I'm uncertain of Jim Main's desired release date for the issue, but I do believe that when it hits, it'll please readers, in that it covers both classic Trek and Disney's The Black Hole: a perfect, cosmic combo. 

And Eighth Tower Publishing's Dark Fiction #4 is also on the horizon, with Raffaele Pezzella and Sara Walker putting the final, editing touches on the volume. It'll cater to H.P. Lovecraft's translucent Outer God, Yog-Sothoth. (My story for #4 is called, "Yog-Sothoth, Beyond the Border".) 

In the meantime, I have other creations (for Main) in the works: an article on the Sir Conan Doyle Lost World television series, for an undisclosed title, and for Pulp Fan #6, a retrospective on prolific pulp artist, Emery Clarke.

Though my "free" time remains limited due to my "day job", I do appreciate (and relish) these writing opportunities. Bizarrechats is also a practical means to extend such activity. Be assured that more updates and reminiscences will come on those topics that you (and I) most enjoy. Stay tuned.
