Listen now | A Special Announcement! I’m delighted to announce that I’ve won an important genre prize for pulp illustration but there’s a problem...I actually won the award a few years ago and couldn’t tell anyone until now! Keep listening to find out what happened….
Speaking of the genre, I just got the new Continental Op with illustrations by John K Snyder III. Nice work. Hope he does another fully illustrated like Eight Million Ways To Die again. He's got the style for the bygone era.
Also got The Rocketeer recent virgin variant or retailer incentive cover by Adam Hughes. The flying one, not the staring longingly into each other's eyes one. Eat your heart out Dave Stevens! RIP.
Yeah, it all spends pretty easily these days, whatever currency one's using...
There are a few loose ends out there as far as unfinished stories. Kinda fun, if you can keep the tone. Challenging.
Would you actually fly around on a jet pack strapped to your back?! Not sure I'd trust being attached without a quick release and some readily viewable gauges. And a parachute.
I'd be likely to Spike Spiegel or Speed Racer (movie finale) the vehicle enough it would be constantly in the shop undergoing repairs. Dukes of Hazzard conditioned me at a young age.
I want a rocket with a transparent hull (at least sometimes) so I can observe the stars. And fittings like you see in a Frank R. Paul or Howard Brown illustration--great art deco skyscrapers set horizontally when they fly. ;)
Couldn't zoom in on that little pic, although I could maybe find it elsewhere.
Looks sort of like the Starmont Reader covers where Stephen Fabian did different authors.
Oh, and I'm preceding your chosen eras of focus a bit this holiday season with some William Hope Hodgson. Out of the Storm.
Possibly Dream of X as well which contains The Night Lands.
And both have illustrations by Stephen Fabian.
Not your GENRE so much, unless you need some SPOOKINESS.
Any comparison to Hannes Bok is flattering, thanks! :)
Congratulations! Don't spend it all in one place!

Ha-ha. Probably will, actually. But thank you!
Gotta love a rocketeer (the flying one or the romantic one )!

It's just Howard Hughes anyway. 😉😉
No, I'm a space rocket type of girl.
Me too. Boy though.

Have you ever watched Dark Star?
What would REALLY happen to a crew stuck in space too long together.
Space madness isn't addressed nearly enough. Or space scurvy.
But yes, transparent hull. Always bothered me about the Millennium Falcon cockpit being on the side. The ship blocks their entire view to the left...
