There is gallery after gallery of pulp covers spreading around the net crazily fast.
In case you don’t know, pulp magazines were inexpensive fiction magazines widely published beginning in the 1920s for thirty years or so. Sometimes pulp is also used to describe mass market paperbacks.
I love them -- they are ridiculous, over-the-top and unintentionally really funny. They rock my world!
With the recent comeback of comics, it wouldn't be surprising if these covers took off again.
