st barbara Posted November 19, 2006 Report Share Posted November 19, 2006 Re: Pulp Comic Books All "kind of" Pulp Planetary Tom Strong Girl Genius (which is available online, for free and 200% completely legal.) "Girl Genius" rocks ! Another(older) "pulp" type comic (if you can still obtain it) is "High Roads"(From D C/Wildstorm, 2003) A quote from the blurb on the back. "What do you get when you combine an American hayseed, a washed up British thespian, a failed kamikaze pilot and Hitler's former mistress ?"

freakboy6117 Posted November 21, 2006 Report Share Posted November 21, 2006 Re: Pulp Comic Books a good one i read recently was Terminal city interesting series adventures of a human fly window cleaner and former dare devil in a some what decaying city of tomorrow type setting. It was rather good had everything vengeful robots long lost explorers, sinister gangsters, femme fatal vigilantes and a race to see who could cross the Atlantic fastest.

Midas Posted November 25, 2006 Report Share Posted November 25, 2006 Re: Pulp Comic Books http://www.bigheadpress.com/roswell?page=1 Roswell is set in an alterate 1947, where Texas is an independant republic. The Saucer Crash landed in Texas (because New Mexico is still part of Texas). Americomics did a lot of reprints and continuations of late 40's "normal" comics (as opposed to their superheroine stuff). Sky Girl, etc. Midas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lysando Posted November 26, 2006 Report Share Posted November 26, 2006 Re: Pulp Comic Books "You don't get to call yourself an "Old school gamer" unless you've played D&D using paper chits and Dixie cups." Does it count if you used those awful dice that came with the boxed set with the blue book with a dragon on it? lysando Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You had dice?? In my day we could only dream of dice! We had a pair of six siders that we stole from a Yahtzee game, and we thought ourselves blessed! You kids don't know how lucky you have it. I remember waiting in line three days (in the snow) on the Rumor that the local comic store was getting a shipment of four sided dice in stock. Boxed sets with dice...Humbug!

Luxury ! We had to carve our own dice out of mammoth bones that we'd hunted down ourselves, and the only thing that we had to paint the spots on with was our own blood ! And you try to tell that to the kids of today and they won't believe you ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
