PulpFest: Just One Week Away!
By this time next Friday I’ll once again be surrounded by tens of thousands of old pulp magazines, and an equal or greater number of vintage hardcovers, paperbacks, digests, fanzines, and related collectibles. Where might this be, you ask? Why, Columbus, Ohio’s Hyatt Regency hotel, of course. That’s the venue for PulpFest, an annual gathering […]
READ MORE >>Coming Soon: HANDSOME HEROES AND VICIOUS VILLAINS
Here’s the cover for the upcoming Handsome Heroes and Vicious Villains, second in my two-volume history of silent-era movie serials. As you can see, it’s been designed to resemble its predecessor, Distressed Damsels and Masked Marauders, so that anybody familiar with the earlier book will recognize the new one as a companion volume. The spine […]
READ MORE >>Preview Of BLOOD ‘N’ THUNDER #41 (Summer 2014 Issue)
Blood ‘n’ Thunder returns to quarterly frequency with the Summer 2014 issue, which will debut at the upcoming PulpFest and be mailed to subscribers and wholesale customers in August after we return from the convention. Those of you only just receiving your copy of the 2013-2014 triple-sized Special Edition (due to a mistake incurred during […]
READ MORE >>Items Added To Collectibles Section
I’ve just updated the Collectibles for Sale section with new listings of recently acquired pulps, digests, and books. And there are more to come in the weeks ahead, as I find the time to process them. In addition to printer matter you’ll also be seeing groups of Old Time Radio recordings and vintage movies on […]
READ MORE >>Note To BNT Subscribers
It’s been brought to my attention that some Blood ‘n’ Thunder subscribers have not yet received their copies of the recent triple issue. It took a while to figure out what the problem was, but now I know. Over the last several months my new volunteer Kevin has not only been helping me catch up […]
READ MORE >>Collectibles Section Being Restocked
It’s been a long time since I added anything to the site’s Collectibles For Sale section, which had dwindled to a scant three items. But I’m in the process of restocking it now, with a couple dozen pieces going on line Friday night and more to come as I continue Spring Cleaning. In addition to […]

READ MORE >>Windy City, Here I Come!
Tomorrow I’m off to Chicago for the annual Windy City Pulp and Paper Convention, with which many readers of this blog are already familiar. Murania Press will have its usual booth, where the lovely Mala Mastroberte will join me. I’ll be promoting the new Blood ‘n’ Thunder 2013-14 Special Edition, Distressed Damsels and Masked Marauders, […]
READ MORE >>Now Available: BLOOD ‘N’ THUNDER 2013-2014 SPECIAL EDITION
A triple-sized issue I’m calling the 2013-14 Special Edition is now available. At nearly 300 pages it’s the biggest, thickest fanzine ever produced, loaded with the usual complement of informative articles and entertaining stories reprinted from vintage pulps. As a bonus feature I’ve included an entire book-length novel (85,000 words) by Randall Parrish: The Strange […]
