ATOMIC WEREWOLVES AND MAN-EATING PLANTS When Men's Adventure Magazines Got Weird Hardcover

The men's adventure magazines of the 1950s, '60s and '70s left no male fantasy or interest unexplored. Among the mags' war stories, exotic adventure yarns, accounts of clashes between man and beast, and spicy tales of sadistic frauleins and tropical queens hungry for companionship were stories that added an extra dose of weird to the equation, emphasizing supernatural encounters, monstrous cryptids, demonic death cults, killer robots, vampirism, and, naturally, atomic werewolves and man-eating plants. Action-packed, larger than life, and illustrated by top talents in the field, including iconic Famous Monsters cover artist Basil Gogos and EC's Jack Davis! Edited by Robert Deis and Wyatt Doyle, with contributions by Mike Chomko and Stefan Dziemianowicz. This latest release in The Men's Adventure Library series is available in softcover and expanded hardcover editions from New Texture. Both editions are fully illustrated, with context and commentary supplied by the editors. The introductions carry the history of men's mag contents right back to the pulp era, introducing the influence of Weird Tales. Authors include Manly Wade Wellman, Gardner F. Fox, Robert Moore and others. Stories taken from Man's Life, Cavalier, Sensation, Adventure, See for Men, Adventure Life, True Weird and Action.
