AIRSHIP 27 PODCAST (EARLY MAY '20): READY FOR LIFTOFF!!!


Though the spring air may be tainted, Captain Ron Fortier and Chief Engineer Rob Davis deliver New Pulp freshness through another spree of Airship 27 updates and insights. 


Prelude plans and the delays surrounding "Ravenwood, Stepson of Mystery Vol #4" are discussed in this episode, which I do appreciate since I'm one of the authors who's contributed to it. 

These new adventures of Frederick C. Davis' occult detective have proven a rousing success for Airship 27, and the latest anthology is expected to do just as well. (Since the podcast's recording, Vol 4 has become available via Amazon and Barnes & Noble. See my April '20 post for further details.) 


In addition to "Ravenwood #4", Ron and Rob discuss the passing of Red Badge creator, Mark Halegua of "Mystery Men (& Women)" fame, as well as acclaimed artist, Tom Gianni and revered pulp historian, Nick Carr. May these superb gentlemen continue their creative endeavors in New Pulp Heaven. 

(As a special surprise, Rob boldly shows off one of his illustrations for the soon-to-be-released "Sherlock Holmes, Consulting Detective, Vol 15". Wow!!!)

Tune in for Ron and Rob's uplifting inhalation at

GODSPEED, THOMAS GIANNI...


You were mythic, grand and yet quaint, whether in sharing images for your popular adventurer, Mechanic Anna, a sprawling series on Robert E. Howard or convincing courtroom depictions for the nightly news.


Fans couldn't help but become immersed in your warm and vivid hues, in which you brought to life fanciful characters through endless, iconic dreams. 


You made a thousand stories a thousand times better because of your respectful care, Mr. Gianni. For those who've enjoyed your remarkable renderings, your passing comes with great lament, but rest assured, your wondrous works guarantee you will never ever be forgotten.
