I thought you would be!

I've wanted one of these for a long time.

Some more pics of the Flash Gordon Strange Adventures pulp. One thing that is interesting is that it is saddle-stitched format rather than squarebound. Also it has a number of full page, color illustrations by Fred Meagher (who does his best to mimic Raymond). Supposedly, this pulp was published without the permission of King Features and is basically a bootleg.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here is the ad for the second issue which was never published (no doubt because of a Cease and Desist from King Features. )

Thanks for the pictures.

 

When I had my copy it was CGC'd, so I never had a chance to view the insides. Love the Shark Men.

Wonderful illustrations! Thanks for taking the pictures. (thumbs u

I was wondering if it could be slabbed, since it's not squarebound. Was it magazine tier?

Wonderful!!! Thanks for sharing these pictures.

That is SUPER COOL Theagenes !! It must have been a thrill the first time you laid eyes on those beautiful color pics

Congrats on your purchase.

 

You picked up a great looking copy.

 

There's an informative little bio of Fred Meagher at lambiek.net's website. Link

 

 

 

[Theagenes]

Thanks guys! (thumbs u

 

BZ, Thanks for the link - I didn't realize Meagher did Straight Arrow. Did you ever post your copy? I remember you mentioning you had one but I don't remember seeing it - I bet it's sweet.

I posted a pic of it sometime back.

 

Structurally my copy is in great shape but, unfortunately, the front cover has a crease down the middle.

 

You'd think after paying 10¢ for a magazine, the original owner would have taken better care of it.

 

 

Do you have any more details about the pulp being published without the permission of King Features?

 

 

 

 

[Theagenes]

I have seen it mentioned in several places, but I haven't been able to corroborate it. I'd love to know more about the circumstances behind its publication.

Subscription copy maybe?

[Theagenes]

Probably not since it was a one-shot. More likely, it was a "back pocket" copy.

Love the cover art! Here's one that's cool, robot cover and Hitler reference.

Sweet Bok cover!

Seems like a precursor to I Robot, Space Odyssey and Matrix robots rebel stuff. How early did robots start turning on humans in literature - as soon as the genre began?

 

(Great Weird Tales cover by the way. Lovecraft, Hitler and robots, even the content is awesome.)
