Public Domain Pulp Comics FREE ONLINE
« on: 15 April 2016, 11:31:37 AM »
I just stumbled across a website full of public domain comics from days bygone. Including a whole "Pulp fiction" section!

http://comicbookplus.com/

Some of the descriptions and publication histories are worth taking a loot at alone take a load of this:

Quote
Sensation is a monthly pulp magazine published by Sensation Magazines Inc. a division of King Features Syndicate, Inc. based in New York, USA.
It apparently only ran for two issues, dated November 1939 and January 1940. It featured stories and articles of a sensational nature as the title would suggest.
More sensational than the contents of the magazine was the editor, William Buehler Seabrook who actually practiced cannibalism on one occasion, out of curiosity to discover the taste of human meat. He had lived with a tribe of cannibals, called the Guere, whose Chief could not accurately describe the taste to him.
He also had dealings with Aleister Crowley and had a lifelong fascination with the occult practices of Satanism and Haitian Voodoo.

For my first recommendation, The Aviation category includes both airboy and Blackhawk two absolute classics of Pulp airplane action!
