Now you might wonder what I'm doing posting this superb cover for Paperback Fanatic 5, when most of you know it's long been sold out.
My thinking went (a) I don't really need an excuse, because it is a brilliant cover; and (b) Adrian Salmon has also drawn the cover for Filthy Creations 5; and (c) that cover illustrates my own story in that issue; and (d) when Justin gets over the excitement of the birth of Sophie Jane Marriott, he'll hopefully be sending me a package through the post which will be followed by Paperback Fanatic 9 going to the printers.
Anyway, that's why.
Below, just to run salt into wounds of those who didn't get PF 5 (I'm such a sadist), this is what was in it:
When Animals Attack! A huge overview of the 'nasty' phenomenon of the 1970s, covering books such as Eat Them Alive, Squelch, Maggots, Killer Flies, Slugs, Fangs and many, many more! Don't go on e-bay without it!
Big Bob Tralins bites back- an exclusive interview with the legendary US sleaze author who lets rip on his own experiences in the pulp industry.
Legion of the Damned march on- the concluding part of our look at the German war pulps including the controversial Devil's Guard.
Rivals of Conan- thre ultimate guide to 1970s sword and sorcery. Starring Thongor, Brak, Kane, Kyrik, Kothar, Blade, Raven, and a whole horde of rampaging Conan cash-ins.
40 pages A4, colour covers, cover price £3.50 (Sold out! Sorry! Hunt down a second-hand copy on eBay!)
