Idea 4 my Substack: substack.com/@billcunning... : If one were an #indiefilm #entrepreneur, they could create an @unrealengine.bsky.social #movie for this property. An #animated #film production with the wonder and adventure of #spaceexploration. #MajorMattMason #Toys

We are soliciting opinions (oh boy!) on undertaking this long-term multi-volume project. A visual guide to every MAM published in the US along with sidebars on the people who created them. A reference and celebration for collectors and fans.

I think this is a great piece by Ron and would make a great RPG Manual cover or some such thing. If you publish #rpgs then please contact Ron. The man is 90 and he's still painting pieces like this.

The "Book of the Movie" I am currently wrapping up. Available at Christmas so I had better quit clowning around...

Two of my early #comic collections from my Pulp 2.0 label. Vol.1 is a Twilight Avenger #serial in 4 chapters. Vol.2 is 4 Twilight Avenger #B-movies. John Wooley & Terry Tidwell created this wonderful #cinema inspired #adventure comic that I sought because I ❤️ it. A 3rd volume is on the boards.

It's HumpDay- who's out there making cool stuff? I'm working on two books for Christmas and New Years... Tell us what you're making!

Dear #filmmakers - It is no longer 1993. This is what you are dealing with in the 21st century. Plan accordingly.

Happiest Birthday wishes, Monsieur Verne! In that vein, I am announcing that C. Courtney Joyner, Mike Kaluta and I are adapting Court's Tor novel, NEMO RISING, as a bigass #hardcover comic! 😉 More info in 2026, and thanks 4 your support in advance.

I made an alt-universe scifi movie poster for DEATHLOK. In some other reality Warner Bros. licensed Marvel's Deathlok in order to create an action movie franchise to compete with Carolco's TERMINATOR. Original art by Joe Jusko.

My vision is something that echoes #comics and #magazines from Will Eisner and Jim Steranko. 2-3 stories per issue, some editorial, advertising. Published irregularly in between my other work. Cheap, entertaining, everywhere.
October 30, 2025 at 2:36 PM
Again, I've been playing with #coverdesign for a tabloid color #comic. This time I added a more European look to it by utilizing art from Alex Toth. I have a meeting with my local newspaper printer soon to work out the sorts of color, size, technique, restrictions we would have...

The WIP cover for MEN'S ADVENTURE QUARTERLY #13 coming soon. It's a curated selection of seductive sadistic siren stories and art for what we like to call "Fatal Femmes." You'll also get select articles and Gal-leries about the MAMs and the pulp culture they influenced. Look for it in November.

A fraternity brother gifted me these classic EXECUTIONER #paperbacks this past weekend. I am one overjoyed mad pulp bastard. #mackbolan #pulp #mensadventure
October 23, 2025 at 2:16 AM
Why yes! This next issue of Men's Adventure Quarterly - our 13th! - will be both seductive and savage. Get ready for "Fatal Femmes!"
