Pulp Fiction
The lurid cover-art age that gave us science fiction, horror, and hardboiled crime
On cheap wood-pulp paper, for a dime, the pulps sold adventure by the ton — and their covers, by artists like Margaret Brundage and Frank R. Paul, are some of the most striking commercial art ever made. Weird Tales, Amazing Stories, Black Mask, Spicy Detective: the pulps invented the genres — science fiction, sword-and-sorcery, the hardboiled detective — that the comic book inherited.
