AIRSHIP 27 PODCAST (Jan '22): READY FOR LIFTOFF

Another year begins, and with it comes another Airship 27 podcast, hosted by our endearing friends, Ron Fortier and Rob Davis. 

For the '22 commencement, our gracious duo announces Nancy Hansen's latest, Sinbad the New Voyages (Vol 7): Sinbad and the Minotaur, which furthers Airship 27's jaunts of the fabled sailor (in the Ray Harryhausen vein), along with Hansen's clever, time-travel twist. 

Also on the exciting agenda is Sherlock Holmes and the Adventure of the Iron Cross by Michael Black and James Lovato, which is certain to delight all fans of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's mastermind sleuth and his trusty partner, Dr. Watson, as they embark on a caper centering on the legendary Crown of Constantinople. 

And then as an extra-special treat, our hosts give a lovely rundown of Airship 27's many exciting, 2021 titles.

RON FORTIER'S MY LIFE IN COMICS: THE AUDIO EDITION, READ BY MARK FINFROCK


Radio Archives has just released the audio edition of Airship 27 Production's "My Life in Comics (a Memoir)" by Ron Fortier.

As most know, I hold Fortier's memoir in high regard (see Nov '19 post), and actor Mark Finfrock gives the author's reflections flavorful expression, covering Fortier's creation of Mr. Jigsaw and his involvement with such iconic characters as Popeye, Peter Pan, Rambo and the Green Hornet. 


There's an undeniable warmth to Fortier's recollections. Finfrock's gracious tonality matches the content to a tee, making the five-hour sojourn an utter joy to absorb. 

Whether one purchases Fortier's book as an audio event or in paperback (enhanced by those neat Rob Davis illustrations), the results are certain to prove satisfying. Beyond any doubt, Fortier's memoir is a must-have for any comic-book collector. 


The audio edition can be obtained at
