Today's the 100th anniversary of the birth of prolific artist James Bama! His over 60 Doc Savage covers were a prime reason for the popularity of the Bantam Books reprints. #docsavage #pulp #adventure #artist #art #paperback

Happy Superman Day!

A final post about The Baroness…for now. I mentioned the French covers were not art but photos of topless women. They were also “Penny” books rather than “The Baroness.” Additionally, the UK had alternate covers for the first four books. These are not my images. I’d love to track these down.

THE BARONESS #9: DEATH IS A COPY CAT Art by Hector Garrido. Cover mocked up by me. This is art crafted by Garrido for the 9th installment of this series which never saw print in the US, but did in France as a part of the Eroscope line. The French covers featured topless women instead of this art.

THE BARONESS #8: BLACK GOLD Cover art by Hector Garrido. This is the final American release of the Baroness novels, but I will post a special follow up tomorrow about Penelope St. John-Orsini!

THE BARONESS #7: FLICKER OF DOOM Cover art by Hector Garrido.

THE BARONESS #6: SONIC SLAVE Cover art by Hector Garrido.

THE BARONESS #5: OPERATION DOOMSDAY Cover art by Hector Garrido.

Taking today and the weekend off from posting books, but I’ll wrap up The Baroness series next week, starting on Monday!

THE BARONESS #4: HARD-CORE MURDER Cover art by Hector Garrido.

THE BARONESS #3: DEATH IS A RUBY LIGHT Cover art by Hector Garrido.

THE BARONESS #2: DIAMONDS ARE FOR DYING Cover art by Hector Garrido.

THE BARONESS #1: THE ECSTASY CONNECTION Cover art by Hector Garrido. Back to posting book covers with this spy smut series. The cover artist would go on to do art for G.I. Joe in the 80s which also features a character named “The Baroness.” This is the 1st of 8 in this series with this style art.

I’m flying back from Chicago today. I stopped by the Windy City Pulp and Paper Convention for a very brief bit of time on Saturday.

I will be there today!

TILTANGLE Cover art by John Berkey. I picked this up super cheap at my local used bookstore. I’ve never read it. The reviews are not great, but the premise and cover art are fascinating. #paperback
