This is a fine symbolic cover dealing with old vs. new theologies - those borne of ancient religion and mythology clashing with the speculations of an ever-increasing technological time. For now though, Odin seems to have the upper hand!

Fantastic Adventures, June 1951.

This classic ‘Thrilling Wonder Stories’ cover is vaguely reminiscent of Ruben’s ‘Fall of the Damned’ – at least in terms of its abundance of diminutive antagonists. Our wholesome heroine, set on minding her own business, is beset by a pack of goggled space gnomes! Can you get any creepier than the notion of these little guys relentlessly attacking you??

February 1950

“For 1,000,000 years she slept, Nuala of the Nekalad,” and although her clothes sure took a beating, her hair and lips look fantastic! How'd she do it? Pure pulp magic!

Here, our brave space adventurers are aided by a pair of jet-propelled skis in their escape from whatever planetary perils abound. As barely a green, clawed hand is visible, it is left chiefly to our imagination what manner of grotesque threatens them so.

Thrilling Wonder Stories, December 1946 issue.

One of the all-time best B.E.M. covers, although this gruesome appears to be leashed as a pet, this time fighting for off-worldly righteousness instead of threatening another crop of space pioneers.

The rivets are back!!

Another metal-clad space lovely adorns this colorful copy of Planet Stories, but she's getting into the act as well - striking a menace with a ray-gun. I guess she's too much of a pacifist to actually pull the trigger... :-)

Winter 1949 issue.

In the Cold War world of the 1960's, we could at least take solace that when the aliens invade, they'll naturally want to pick on the Soviets a little bit too.

This amazing pulp title from Avon only lasted two issues, but in addition to the standard sci-fi fare, each issue featured 32 pages of color comics! A great insert making them true cross-over collectibles, for pulp and comic collectors alike.
