CAPTAIN HAZZARD RETURNS!


All right! We're back again. And to kick things off here's the cover to the latest release from Airship 27:
"The most intriguing character from the action pulps returns! This thrill-a-minute new edition is not merely a reprint of that solo 1938 classic, but a brand new relaunch of this long-forgotten pulp hero.

"Captain Hazzard travels the world in search of action and adventure, accompanied by his team: Jake Col, Montana sharp-shooter; Martin Tracey, surgeon; Washington MacGowen, scientific genius; Tyler Randal, ace pilot; and William Crawley, tabloid crime reporter. Their adventures are the stuff of legends.

"This new, updated special edition contains:
• The completely re-edited and rewritten Captain Hazzard book "Python Men of the Lost City" by Ron Fortier to include new chapters not included in the 1938 book!

• Wonderful spot illustrations by Rob Davis.

• New introduction and afterword written especially for this new edition."

That cover is FANTASTIC! I bet the book is as well.

Thanks, Kevin. I just learned today that it is now available at Amazon.
Yahooo.

It is, Kevin! And it's better than ever having been gone over with a fine-tooth comb and re-edited. And boy didn't Mark knock the ball out of the park with that cover!! He's doing a Sherlock Holmes cover for us now and I'm dying to see what he's got cooked up!

Yes, the Holmes cover is amazing, but so is this one! It's a tough call as to which is more amazing!

I missed the first version put out by Wildcat, but got this one. Its on my 'to read pile'.

But what's up with the mustache? I don't recall one on the original pulp cover. And everyone knows Hazzard's first name is Rex. :)
