Pulp Fiction-- Need I say more?,
By Darkendale "Raven" (VA USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Operator #5: The Army of the Dead (Paperback)
This is actually from a Pulp Magazine popular in the 30's, 40's, and early 50's. Our country was in crisis. The Great Depression. World War II. Rationing. But these cheaply printed (on pulpwood paper, hence the name) Pulp Magazines were a way of helping distract the public from the horrors of day-to-day life. The characters and plot were "larger than life" as many term them, and read today may seem a bit overdone. But I fell in love with the Pulps with the reprints of Doc Savage, The Shadow, and The Avenger when I was a boy, and I find them very enjoyable. Take a walk though yesteryear with one of these stories. They transcend time. And by the way, Tarzan, Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos, and Conan first appeared in these pulps, so you may owe more to them than you know! Quoth the Raven...
