CLAWS OF THE GOLDEN DRAGON

Airship 27 Productions is proud to announce the release of a new “Asian” themed pulp thriller by a super talented newcomer to the field of New Pulp Fiction, Barbara Doran.

When a mysterious evil force known only as the Voice begins to take control of the local mobs in the coast city of Strikersport, two new heroes appear on the scene.  Their origins, the neighborhood streets of Chinatown.  The masked Tiger and Dragon wield both science and magic in their battle to combat the forces of darkness.  Soon several of the city’s prominent citizens become players in this cataclysmic war. These include a wealthy family with roots to Strikersport history, a rookie cop and a crusading newspaper editor.

“Ms Doran approached us at Pulp Fest last year,” recounts Airship 27 Productions Managing Editor Ron Fortier. “She was interested in our line up of titles and had heard about our producing the first ever black avenger character, Dambala, by author Charles Saunders. After picking it up, she inquired if we’d be interested in material featuring characters of oriental heritage.” Fortier and Ms Doran exchanged contact information and months later he received a digital copy of the manuscript for “Claws of the Golden Dragon.” “It was like nothing that had ever come across my desk before,” Fortier adds. “I knew immediately we had another winner on our hands.”

Writer Barbara Doran spins a classic pulp adventure with breakneck pacing, original characters and a convoluted plot that will keep readers guessing to the very end.  Mixing martial arts with Chinese mysticism, she offers a truly unique action mystery sure to entertain readers.The books features nine interior illustrations by professional Hawaiian based illustrator, Gary Kato, with a cover by New Zealander Shane Evans. As ever, Airship 27 award winning Art Director Rob Davis provided the book’s design. “We’ve pretty much got an international team on this one,” Fortier finishes. “All working towards delivering a truly unique New Pulp fiction reading experiences. Our fans are going to love “Claws of the Golden Dragon.”

BACK IN PRINT!!

BLACK BAT MYSTERY Vol One

Available Again in New Edition

The first in a series of brand new Black Bat adventures, “Black Bat Mystery, Vol One” was one of the last books to be published by Cornerstone Books during their association with Airship 27 Productions.  Out of print for several years now, Airship 27 Productions is delighted to announce the release of this new, wholly Airship 27 Edition.

The book was nominated for several Pulp Factory Awards when first released in 2010.

It features four great pulp tales of the Black Bat by Andrew Salmon, Aaron Smith, Mark Justice and Frank Schildiner.  Art Director Rob Davis provides the gorgeous 12 black and white interior illustrations and Mark Maddox the stunning painted cover.

Airship 27 Productions is currently assembling Vol II in this series and thus, having this one back in print was a major part of that marketing promotion.

C.O. Jones - Mobsters & Monsters

C.O. JONES

Mobsters & Monsters

Airship 27 Productions is thrilled to announce the latest pulp thriller by one of the fastest rising stars in the New Pulp field, Fred Adams, Jr.

During World War II, C.O. Jones, under a different name, was recruited into a special unit of the OSS (Office of Strategic Services).  Special in that all the members had some kind of extrasensory abilities bordering on magic.  Their main mission was to seek out and combat the Nazis’ top secret Occult Practioners.

But the war is over and C.O. is just another veteran looking for a fresh start.  He hopes the quiet little town of Brownsville, Pennsylvania is the perfect place to do so.  Until, that is, he gets involved with the local criminal element and discovers, through his own unique gifts, that someone is using dark magic to further their own illegal agenda.  For C.O. Jones, it seems the ways of magic are to be found in the most unlikely places.

“I can’t say enough good things about Fred Adams,” says Airship 27 Productions Managing Editor, Ron Fortier.  “From day one he has delivered some of the best fiction I’ve read in years.  His style is both competent and easy, delivering suspenseful stories like all the old pros from the classic pulps of the 30s and 40s.  This is his fourth book with us and honestly, each one is better than the last.  If you love pulp fiction, remember the name Fred Adams.”

Fred Adams, Jr. delivers another scorching thriller that races across the pages with fresh, original characters, suspense and ever-exploding action.  Features spot illustrations by artist Clayton Hinkle with a stunning cover by Carl Yonders, all under the guidance of award winning Art Director, Rob Davis.  Hold on to your seatbelts as you meet the C.O. Jones, one of the toughest new pulp heroes of them all.

Another Cover Peek

Later this summer we hope to release GHOST BOY Vol Two.  To that end artist Zachary Brunner has done up this rough composition sketch that will evolve into the finished cover.  It's our homage to the classic Marvel Comic Fantastic Four # 1.

Stay tuned, Loyal Airmen.

SIX-GUN TERRORS Vol Two

SIX-GUN TERRORS Vol II

Airship 27 Productions is thrilled to be releasing the second volume in this series of weird westerns by writer Fred Adams, Jr.

Deep in the heart of the Caplock Mountains of Nevada a frightening new horror is preying on settlers and prospectors alike.  When the entire crew of a mining outfit is found torn to pieces, the U.S. Cavalry is sent to investigate under the command of General Sherman; the famous Civil War tactician.  He immediately recruits his former army scouts turned cowpunchers, Durken and McFee, to help ferret out this new threat to frontier settlements.

Soon the two cantankerous saddle-mates find themselves caught up between government agents and frightened Indian tribes who warn of an ancient evil returned to plague the white invaders; warriors capable of transforming themselves into beast!

“At a recent comic convention, this title was our best seller,” reports Airship 27 Productions’ Managing Editor Ron Fortier.  “People were immediately taken with artist Zachary Brunner’s gorgeous cover and we’re thrilled to announce he’s back handling all the art in this terrific sequel; both cover and interior illustrations.”  Readers of the first book in the series may notice a peculiar familiarity in the artist’s background on the cover. They are in fact a continuation of those seen in the first cover.  “This was a deliberate decision,” says Fortier.  “And we can’t wait until readers put both books together side by side.”  Award winning Art Director, Rob Davis adjusted the old logo to make this visual sequencing possible.

Once again Fred Adams Jr. delivers a gripping weird western that combines the best elements of both genres to deliver a non-stop action-adventure that will have pulp fans whipping through the pages.  Six-Terrors Vol II is a book you won’t want to put down.
