Two of my early #comic collections from my Pulp 2.0 label. Vol.1 is a Twilight Avenger #serial in 4 chapters. Vol.2 is 4 Twilight Avenger #B-movies. John Wooley & Terry Tidwell created this wonderful #cinema inspired #adventure comic that I sought because I ❤️ it. A 3rd volume is on the boards.

It's HumpDay- who's out there making cool stuff? I'm working on two books for Christmas and New Years... Tell us what you're making!

Dear #filmmakers - It is no longer 1993. This is what you are dealing with in the 21st century. Plan accordingly.

I made an alt-universe scifi movie poster for DEATHLOK. In some other reality Warner Bros. licensed Marvel's Deathlok in order to create an action movie franchise to compete with Carolco's TERMINATOR. Original art by Joe Jusko.

My vision is something that echoes #comics and #magazines from Will Eisner and Jim Steranko. 2-3 stories per issue, some editorial, advertising. Published irregularly in between my other work. Cheap, entertaining, everywhere.

Again, I've been playing with #coverdesign for a tabloid color #comic. This time I added a more European look to it by utilizing art from Alex Toth. I have a meeting with my local newspaper printer soon to work out the sorts of color, size, technique, restrictions we would have...

The WIP cover for MEN'S ADVENTURE QUARTERLY #13 coming soon. It's a curated selection of seductive sadistic siren stories and art for what we like to call "Fatal Femmes." You'll also get select articles and Gal-leries about the MAMs and the pulp culture they influenced. Look for it in November.

A fraternity brother gifted me these classic EXECUTIONER #paperbacks this past weekend. I am one overjoyed mad pulp bastard. #mackbolan #pulp #mensadventure

Why yes! This next issue of Men's Adventure Quarterly - our 13th! - will be both seductive and savage. Get ready for "Fatal Femmes!"

If you don't understand this reference you're either:

The reason for the profile post on SECRET AGENT X last week was the fact we are showcasing a story by writer Paul Chadwick (aka "Brant House") in the next issue of MEN'S ADVENTURE QUARTERLY. PC wrote for #pulps, #MAMs, and paperbacks - a pulp culture trifecta!

Bonfils was the key artist for Corinth's porn titles, and worked extremely fast designing eye-catching covers. Odd angles, dynamic color, and captivating subjects were all in his wheelhouse. Sadly, Corinth's mainstream book distribution was spotty and the series failed to catch on.
