BROTHER BONES - CITY OF LOST SOULS


BROTHER BONES
City of Lost Souls

Airship 27 Productions is thrilled to announce the fourth title in Ron Fortier’s daring new pulp series featuring the Undead Avenger, Brother Bones.  “City of Lost Souls,” continues the saga of Cape Noire’s supernatural protector, the relentless skull masked vigilante who exist for only one purpose; the utter destruction of evil.

In the past three volumes, pulp fans were introduced to Tommy Bonello, a cruel sadistic hitman who found himself cursed with a conscience and then was murdered by his own twin brother, Jack. But hell didn’t await the slain gunman, rather his soul was chosen by the Cosmic Fates to return to the land of the living and there become the gruesome avatar of justice, Brother Bones. The vengeful spirit complied by taking over his brother’s body, effectively ending Jack’s life and thus becoming an animated zombie.

Starting with “Brother Bones The Undead Avenger,” the character burst on to the New Pulp scene over ten years. His remarkable debut was followed by a full length novel, “Brother Bones – Six Days of the Dragon,” by author Roman Leary, working under Fortier’s guidance. The following year saw the release of Fortier’s second collection, “Brother Bones – Tapestry of Blood.” Now comes the long awaited fourth book, another anthology featuring five gripping tales of murder, mayhem and the unstoppable Undead Avenger.

“I sometimes think Bones is in charge,” says Fortier, who is also Airship 27 Productions’ Managing Editor. “His stories propel me along as if I were merely a chronicler. Bones and the entire cast of Cape Noire have, over the years, taken on realistic characteristics in my imagination. In this new collection, we find old characters from previous stories resurfacing in new ways I’d never have conceived of ten years ago. Each is taking center stage with startling new stories that will definitely change the landscape of Cape Noire forever.”

The longest tale in the collection is “The Synthetic Man” and for the first time ever, Brother Bones combats a classic golden age pulp villain, Doctor Satan. “This was a real challenge,” Fortier adds. “I realized bringing Satan into Cape Noire would set a precedent allowing other classic pulp characters to enter this world. Where that will take us right now is anybody’s guess.”

Joining Fortier to provide ten black and white illustrations is Rob Davis, Art Director for Airship 27 Productions and super graphic artist Michael Stribling created the beautiful stunning cover. And this new book is soon to be followed by a brand new role-playing game module, “Ron Fortier’s Cape Noire” from Scaldcrow Games due out within a few weeks. The popularity of Brother Bones continues to grow and these new entries are sure to add to that momentum.

THE MOON MAN Vol 2



THE MOON MAN RETURNS

Airship 27 Productions is proud to announce the releases of their second volume in their series of all new Moon Man adventures.

In the middle of the Great Depression, many unscrupulous people found ways to enrich their own wealth while ignoring the plight of those less fortunate. It was an injustice the law could not remedy. Men like Detective Sgt. Stephen Thatcher found themselves at odd with the very laws they were sworn to uphold. But, unlike the others, Thatcher solved his moral dilemma by creating an alter-ego who would rob from the very rich and give to the poor. Wearing a bizarre argus glass globe over his head, the Moon Man became the Robin Hood of Great City and one of pulpdom’s most endearing classic heroes.

“The Moon Man was one of the most original pulp heroes of them all,” says Airship 27 Productions’ own Managing Editor, Ron Fortier. “His adventures were always fun and unique unlike any other character from the Golden Age of the Pulps.”

Now writers Gene Moyers, Greg Hatcher, Tim Bruckner and Terry Alexander have whipped up four new stories pitting the Moon Man against a variety of foes and challenges. From a group of street kids emulating him to deadly Nazi saboteurs, the globe wearing champion of the underdogs, finds himself battling as never before to see that justice will triumph in the end.  

This new volume features a stunning cover by British artist Mike Files with twelve interior illustrations by Richard Jun and designed by award winning Art Director Rob Davis.

ALLAN QUATERMAIN & THE BEAST MEN





ALLAN QUATERMAIN
&
The Beast Men

Airship 27 Productions is proud to announce the release of the third volume in their series, Allan Quatermain – The New Adventures; based on the classic hero created by H. Rider Haggard. “Allan Quatermain & the Beast Men” is a full length novel by writer Wayne Carey.

When all the villagers of several veldt kraals mysteriously go missing, Allan Quatermain finds himself embroiled in one of his most baffling African adventures. Whispers among the Zulus claim weird beast men, half-human and half-cat, are responsible for the abductions. Quatermain and his companion Mnqoba begin their investigation skeptic of the rumors but at the same time baffled by the unexplained disappearances of so many so quickly.

Their mission leads them to a ranch owned by British Doctor Emerson Blake and his beautiful wife Emma. Both scoff at the stories of the beast men and do their best to convince the famous hunter that there must be a logical explanation. Quatermain is almost won over when, after a new attack by the creatures, Mnqoba is counted among the missing. Now he must confront the reality; someone or something has brought death to Zululand?

“Quatermain is a classic pulp hero fans can’t get enough of,” says Airship 27 Productions Managing Editor Ron Fortier. “It is the lore of Africa, at a time when adventure and mystery went hand in hand. When Wayne Carey brought us this manuscript, we were overjoyed.”

Writer Wayne Carey whips up a thrilling old fashion adventure yarn featuring one of the most endearing heroes in all of literature.  British artist Graham Hill provides the cover and graphic illustrator, Clayton Hinkle, the nine black and white interior illustrations. “Allan Quatermain & the Beast Men,” is pure pulp action from start to finish.
