Received from Justin Marriott today, an email with the cover of PF8 attached.
The print format seems to have been changed from 'portrait' to 'landscape'. Justin says that this one's been a long time in the works but is planned to go to print next week.
The covers shown include a number of old loves including 4 E R Burroughs novels, a Michael Moorcock Burroughsian adventure (Masters of the Pit was originally published under the pseudonym "Edward Powys Bradbury", a nod of the head to three of Moorcock's influences); and 2 Shadow novels. I also remember the film of The Incredible Melting Man with a lot of affection.
Other covers include R Chetwynd-Hayes' The Monster Club, sure to find a welcome among members of the Vault.
Stop press:
I've just found the cover shown on the Paperback Fanatic home page, and it looks like some rethinking went on between the two version.
The text below is copied from the PF site:
The new look Paperback Fanatic in association with Sequential Media Publishing will be on sale in November 2008
Contents include-
Edgar Rice Burroughs in paperback- a checklist of his British pbs with piles of rare cover reproductions
Peter Cave, King of the Angels- the definitive piece on his biker pulps
A Fist Full of Pulps- an in-depth interview with pulp fiction legend Terry Harknett
The Ivy League Vampire- a look back at the paperback art of the legendary Jim Steranko
Horror has Risen From the Grave- more classic pulps of the 1970s are examined
Letters, updates, illustrations and much more!
This one has a lot of copy inside to my taste (which is usually the case, in fact), so I'll be placing my order.
