ALL PULP INTERVIEWS BAD TIGER-FINAL INTERVIEW- Steven Wilcox!
For the last interview in the BAD TIGER STUDIO series, ALL PULP takes on Steven Wilcox, Artist!
ALL PULP: Tell us about yourself,
your personal background, and how you got into writing/art/etc.
SW: I have been drawing, in some form
or another, since I was able to hold a pencil – even before I could write. My
dad cultivated my love of drawing things like Batman and Spider-Man into a love
of comic books by subscribing to several titles when I was growing up. The love
of drawing and love of comics seemed to go hand-in-hand for me. As my tastes
matured, so, too, did my art ability.
AP: What is your role at Bad Tiger?
SW: At Bad Tiger, I’m the co-creator,
penciller, inker and colorist of The Black Viper: Enemy of Evil strip.
AP: In our modern society, some would
say that there's nothing new or original anymore. What makes Bad Tiger
stand out?
SW: While there is “nothing new”
these days there are new ways of presenting old ideas and themes. Bad Tiger
wants to be known as the New Home of Pulp Adventures!
AP: What are your inspirations,
influences for the work you do?
SW: Personally, my wife of twenty
years and my four children inspire me in everything I do. Artistically, I find
inspiration in a lot of artists, mostly comic book artists like John Byrne,
Alex Ross, Arthur Adams, Mike Mignola, Tim Bradstreet, and Jim Lee to name a
few. Outside of comics, I love the work of Norman Rockwell and Alphonse Mucha.
AP: What do you think appeals to the
public about heroic/genre fiction and/or comic strips? Why will people
come to Bad Tiger?
SW: Because most of us grew up on
comics and pulp adventures, and like the old fashioned storytelling of our
youth, we tend to make our comics/stories the way we would want to read them…
AP: Last question! Say whatever you'd
like to about Bad Tiger, yourself, or the experience!
SW: Working with Bad Tiger has been a
joy. They embraced a character that me and my co-creator Justin Jude Carmona
came up with a few years ago and gave him a home. We’re about to embark on
adventures of The Black Viper that haven’t been sitting in a drawer for a few
years, (the first two episodes were done in 2008 or 2009).

NEW ORIGINAL NOVEL FEATURING CLASSIC ARGOSY CHARACTER DEBUTS!
From Borgo Press and Author Christopher Yates comes a new tale of adventure featuring the classic character from Argosy Magazine, THE NIGHT WIND!
Borgo Press previously reprinted four Night Wind novels, edited by Yates. The fifth book, entitled Behold 'The Night Wind' is a newly written tale of adventure by Yates as the next book in the series. The book also features exquisite cover and interior artwork by noted artist Mark Maddox!
In the latest adventure of this classic character, Bingham and Katherine Harvard are polite, New York
society. He is an Ivy League
graduate, heir to his foster father’s fortune, and successor to the presidency
of New York’s Centropolis Bank.
She is the daughter of a United States Senator, scion of the Maxwilton
family, the political dynasty of the Commonwealth of Kentucky. Husband and wife reside at the
sprawling Long Island estate, Myquest.
The Harvards’ elevated status in the social register is not high
enough to avoid the clutch of crime.
Years ago Bing earned an alias, The Night Wind, in a bare-fisted brawl
with the law in an all-sweeping
revenge against false witnesses. With
five times the strength of an average man, Bingham prevailed. Lady Kate was a prisoner in her own
home, but sprang self-made man-traps in a successful bid at freedom. Using sleuthing skills attained as a
New York City police detective was no small advantage during her plight. Together they have resolved to take the
battle to the villain instead of awaiting fate to drop yet another
scoundrel on their doorstep.
Aided by the United States Secret Service, and their valet, Julius,
the Harvards race headlong into Westerville, Ohio. A town dubbed the Dry Capital of the World and home of the
Anti-Saloon League, the principal proponent of the successful drive for
national prohibition. But a half
dozen speakeasies go up in flames in nearby Columbus, drawing in organized
crime from New York to protect their business…until they too go up in flames.
Amidst this turmoil, United States Senator Warren G. Harding is
conducting his campaign for President of the United States from the front porch
of his home in Marion, Ohio. His
challenger for the Oval Office is the Governor of the State of Ohio.
History is being made in central Ohio this fall of 1920. Will it be historically tragic or
triumphant?
The ingredients for anarchy are in the bowl waiting to be stirred.
Be prepared to be blown away.
Behold, “The Night Wind!”
Available at Amazon!
IT WAS A DARK AND SHADOWY NIGHT.

MARK ELLIS UNLEASHES SEX, BLACKMAIL AND MURDER
New Pulp author Mark Ellis has released a sneak peek of his new upcoming book called Rag Baby, now available at Amazon.
SEX, BLACKMAIL AND MURDER IN THE DARK HEART OF THE SUNSHINE STATE!
Bonaparte "Bone" Mizell, formerly of the DEA, has a problem on his hands: Dale Bristline, his 400 lb. client with a beautiful ex-stripper wife needs help dealing with a blackmailer — Brandy’s first husband has returned from the dead and is making outrageous demands…and she mustn’t be told about it.
When drug-dealer turned sex club owner Bristline needs some help dealing with the blackmailer, cash-strapped Bone accepts the case…and he quickly learns that behind the sunshine and laid-back lifestyle is a dangerous jungle, where sex is big business and jealousy can lead to murder. Bone deals with bikers turned bodyguards, scorned strippers and a lovely Latina sheriff, all out to get him – in one way or another.
As a DEA agent, Bone was used to hitting all the wrong places at just the wrong time. Now a cast of bizarre characters and a storm of violence traps him in a mystery that will take all of his resourcefulness to solve – and survive!

ALL PULP INTERVIEWS BAD TIGER #3-D. C. GOLIGHTLY!
For the third interview in the BAD TIGER series, ALL PULP corners Writer/Creator/Marketing Director D. C. Golightly!
ALL PULP: Tell us about yourself, your personal background, and how you got into writing/art/etc.
DCG: I reside in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania with my wife and kids. I love comics, cookies, and characters. Follow my freelance rumblings at http://dave-golightly.blogspot.com/. I've always been a huge comic fan, and growing up I really got into more adventure pulps as my comic collection grew. Since I wanted to weave a wonderful world myself, I started scribbling little stories. I've been lucky enough that some people are willing to pay for those stories. I always wanted to be an artist, but I lack talent. Therefor the pen is the only version of the brush that I can manipulate as a creator.
AP: What is your role at Bad Tiger?
AP: In our modern society, some would say that there's nothing new or original anymore. What makes Bad Tiger stand out?
DCG: It's a group of like-minded people that have a single goal: create awesome stories. We're not doing this to get paid; we're doing this because we love these characters and this genre. There's a lot of work being put into this venture, and a lot of talent to recognize. This group is populated by people that are not only good enough to make it in the industry, but to an extent already are. We choose to take the time to build this initiative because we believe in it and want to get our stories told.
AP: What are your inspirations, influences for the work you do?
DCG: Jim Butcher is always on his game, and I would buy lunch for Mark Waid any day of the week. Jeffery Deaver can write a character out of any corner.
AP: What do you think appeals to the public about heroic/genre fiction and/or comic strips? Why will people come to Bad Tiger?
DCG: Bad Tiger Studios will quickly become a place fans recognize as a platform for creative talent, free of charge. We'll toss incredible projects to the wall, see what sticks, and then turn them around for readers. The quality of the material is out of this world and the people interested in this genre will undoubtedly return after they get a sample of what we have to offer. These are the kinds of stories that people want to see, and we're more than happy to offer them.
AP: Free response! Say whatever you'd like to about Bad Tiger, yourself, or the experience!
DCG: I'm flattered to be associated with such uniquely creative people. These people are putting in many long hours of work just to provide entertainment, and all they are asking for is a shot to be viewed.

HONEY WEST AND T.H.E CAT: A GIRL AND HER CAT - COVER SKETCH REVEAL!
 |
| Art: Douglas Klauba |
Following on the heels of the first ever Honey West & T.H.E Cat crossover comic, Moonstone's "Death in the Desert," comes the Honey West & T.H.E Cat novel, A Girl and Her Cat…
Cover art teaser! Initial concept sketch by the mighty Douglas Klauba!
When an exotic green-eyed Asian doctor hires Honey to recover a stolen sample of a new Rubella vaccine from a rival scientist, the blonde bombshell private eye—suspicious but bored—takes the case. But after she’s attacked not once, but twice, on her way from Long Beach to San Francisco to track down her quarry, she knows there’s more—much more—to her femme fatale client than meets the eye.
Along the way, Honey’s one-time paramour Johnny Doom—ex-bounty hunter and current Company agent—reenters the picture, and the gorgeous doctor’s insidious—and deadly—grandfather deals himself in. But when Honey questions whether Johnny’s playing her game, or just playing her for a patsy, she joins forces—as only Honey can—with the one man in Frisco who can help her recover the stolen vaccine-cum-bioweapon and prevent worldwide genocide by germ-warfare—former cat burglar-turned-bodyguard Thomas Hewitt Edward Cat: T.H.E Cat!
