"¿No los odias?, ¿esos silencios incómodos? ¿Por qué necesitamos decir algo para rellenarlos? Es por eso que sabes que has encontrado a alguien especial. Puedes estar callado durante un puto minuto y compartir el silencio."

Pulp Art By Dr. Jon Suter
Anyone with even a slight interest in pulp magazines will want a copy of Robert Lesser's “Pulp Art: Original Cover Paintings for the Great American Pulp Magazines” (Grammercy Books, 1997). For $20, it is a remarkable bargain.
Some anthologies of pulp stories have included reproductions, not always in color, of pulp covers. The best of these is Tony Goodstone's “Pulps: Fifty Years of American Pop Culture” (Chelsea House, 1970), but it comes nowhere close to Lesser's work.
The quality of reproduction is remarkable; most of the illustrations are at least as large as the original covers.
Noteworthy is the use of the original paintings without the distracting title logos and list of contributors and stories. In some cases, a small inset shows the cover as it appeared on newsstands. The difference is striking.
Even though typescript detracted from artwork, it was necessary, the best and quickest means to lure a buyer. The quantity of cover text varied, but most seem to have understood the need to keep the art uncluttered even as artists knew to provide some "free" space.
Clutter tended to increase over the years.
Comic book readers will recall sometimes vitriolic letters from readers outraged by any increase in the use of word balloons or blocs of text on Marvel or DC comics covers. The editors usually argued that word balloons helped explain the covers and stories and increased sales.
Lesser compiled a good and representative collection of covers and arranged them thematically. In most cases, he avoided using some famous covers which have been reprinted too often. His selections prove convincingly that most covers were not salacious.
There are short and interesting essays by writers and artists familiar to comic collectors: Forrest Ackerman, Jim Steranko, etc.
Neophytes and veterans can profit from this book. I knew little previously about Rafael de Soto and his work for Spider and Detective Tales.
This and Goodstone's book, along with Peter Haining's Terror (A & W Visual Library, 1976) are the cornerstones of any pulp collection.
Custom modular building rooftop, featuring a city skyline silhouette.
Trying to cram as many themes in as possible. UFOs make everything better. Also want to get as much Alien Conquest in the showcases while it's still around.
You may notice that it's got no side wall... that's because it's just a facade and a roof. The roof comes off for easy transport. I'm going to have to carry this all over NYC before it gets installed, so I needed it to be as portable as possible. It's on a 16x32 baseplate so it'll easily break down and fit in my backpack. Taking a cue from film school, you can get a lot of milage out of creative use of flats. It should look like a complete solid building in the showcase window.

Just an amazing concert. They played "Different Class" in its entirety.

Homage week continues with number 2, my homage to the cult classic film "Pulp Fiction," with the iconic image of Uma Thurman's character sitting about figuring ways to get herself into a whole bunch of trouble. Two notes about this image--that is a very very fake gun and a very very fake cigarette as I absolutely loath both. Smoking however, ranks number 1 on my list of pet peeves. I apologize in advance, but you and I will never be friends or lovers if you smoke. Anyway, I'm trying to mix it up this year, and get movies, art, and music all in this week, so we'll see what will develop tomorrow.
Thanks to Chas of www.itsfilmedthere.com/, I was able to visit and capture a photo of the location used as the famous Jack Rabbit Slim's from the 1994 thriller "Pulp Fiction". The building was then, and is still now, part of the Disney complex in Glendale.
