AIRSHIP 27 PRODUCTION PRESENTS CALIFORNIA WOLVES

A Bigfoot P.I. Novel by Michael Panush

Arlo Patches is a bigfoot private investigator living in the Northern California community of Sarsaparilla Springs. His brother is the town sheriff. When a well-known environmentalist goes missing in the surrounding woods, he’s hired to find her. Talk in the area is that the government is looking to reintroduce wolves into the county, and the woman’s disappearance may be connected.

As he begins to investigate, along with the help of a few Florida skunk apes, Arlo finds himself caught up in a brewing confrontation between animal lovers and local ranchers who see the wolves as a threat to their livelihood. He suspects outside forces are manipulating both sides, and unless he can uncover their motives, the woods may soon be filled with sounds of bloody combat.

Writer Michael Panush weaves a truly original adventure in which fantasy and reality merge to the delight of pulp readers. Award-winning artist James Lyle provides cover and interior illustrations.

AIRSHIP 27 PRODUCTION PRESENTS METROPOLIS – RESURRECTION

Welcome to Metropolis, an endless Art Deco sprawl-city of future, filling the horizon in a world of steel and neon. Brilliant and ruthless, the tycoon Joh Freder, rules Metropolis with an iron will. His best friend, the eccentric genius Dr. Karl Rotwang, created scientific miracles to keep the city alive. And Dr. Rotwang is nothing without Hel, the woman he loves, whose kind heart rebels at the cruelty and inequality seething below the skyscrapers.

Then excavations below the city discover something bizarre in the ancient catacombs- a flawless metal woman, a Silver Goddess that brings dreams of civic destruction - a mystery Rotwang must solve. While Hel tries to save the city from Freder’s unchecked ambition, the Silver Goddess sends Rotwang down a path of obsession and madness. All there on a journey that could bring Metropolis crashing down or give it hope of a better future.

In this prequel to Fritz Lang’s sci-fi classic, authors Michael Panush (Blood Spiller’s Quarry, The Dead Sheriff: A Cold and Lonesome Grave) and Charles Santino (Toplin,Conan the Barbarian) set the stage for a landmark of Weimar Cinema that still resonates today.

AIRSHIP 27 PRODUCTION PRESENTS TOWERS OF METROPOLIS Vol 2

Airship 27 Production is thrilled to announce the release of their latest title, “Towers of Metropolis Vol 2.” In 1927, German filmmaker Fritz Lang created the silent science fiction masterpiece, “Metropolis.” It remains a monumental work of imagination wherein the struggles of mankind are challenged by the soulless evolution of the mechanical age. Here, in this setting of mile-high towers of wonder, the secret sufferings of the past collide with the shining ambitions of the future. And yet, the citizens of “Metropolis” remain ever slaves of the present.

Here in this second volume of new stories, writers Dexter Fabi, Carson Demmons, and Harding McFadden revisit Lang’s supercity where all times collide and only the pure of heart can truly survive.

Artist James Lyle provides the 12 interior illustrations and cover, while Art Director Rob Davis handles the book design.

AIRSHIP 27 PRODUCTION PRESENTS SHADOWS OF LOVE BY R.A. JONES

After almost fifteen years of publishing some of the most action-packed adventure pulp novels, new pulp publisher Airship 27 Production is delighted to announce the release of their first-ever pulp romance novel. “Shadows of Love” by R.A. Jones.

Amber Milton, daughter of Lord Kensington, never set out to fall in love with the handsome stable hand, Edwin Stone. Though aware her father was in serious financial jeopardy and might have to sell their country estate, The Barrens, Amber was oblivious to all by her own life of privilege.

When Stone began to teach her how to ride the stable’s fiercest stallion, Storm, Amber felt a new passion awakening in herself. In the end, she could do nothing but succumb and she and Stone pledged their love to each other, come what may.

Then their idyllic vow was shattered when the greedy, unscrupulous banker, Harold Meek, offered Amber’s father the funds to settle his debts. In return for helping him frame Stone of robbery and chasing him away, thus allowing him to marry Amber. In one dark and loathsome ploy, the young lovers are torn apart supposedly to never see each other again, each believing themselves betrayed by the other.

Yet sometimes in the face of such pure, sweet love, Fate takes a hand and through a series of incredible events ranging from Italy to the coast of Africa, Amber Milton and Edwin Stone’s lives are about to be reunited.

Artist James Lyle provides all the interior illustrations plus the cover for this plunge in Harlequin Romance territory.

AIRSHIP 27 PRODUCTION PRESENTS EL’ARIS

Airship 27 Productions is thrilled to announce the release of a new science-fiction action adventure novel by Wayne Carey; “EL’ARIS.”

After the planet El’aris was first discovered, human colonists enslaved the alien Tz-en. Then they mined the world’s natural resources for themselves. Eventually the Tz-en organized a rebellion with the help of paid intergalactic mercenaries, among which were Tony Michaels and Jon Perry. With the financial backing of the powerful star-spanning Deltan Technologies, they were victorious.

Ten years later, Michaels is summoned back to El’aris. Now it is the Tz-zen who rule with an iron fist subjugating the human Elarans. A desert tribe known as the Skir’ka has begun terrorist attacks on the major trade centers and Deltan Tech wants him to find and kill their leader. His name is Jon Perry.

“Wayne Carey’s new book is like a trip back in time,” says Airship 27 Production’s Managing Editor Ron Fortier. “It recalls the late 60s and early 70s when Ace and Daw paperbacks dominated the spinner racks. Month after month some of the finest science-fiction books were offered by such luminaries as Andre Norton, E.C. Tubb, A.E. Van Vogt, Frederick Pohl, Arthur C. Clark, Isaac Asimov and so-so many more.”

Fortier recalls his teen years devouring those action adventure space operas. “Carey has captured the enthusiasm and magic of those galactic settings with fascinating aliens and truly memorable new worlds.” Artist James Lyle provides the black and white interior illustrations and Ted Hammond the cover with Art Director Rob Davis assembling the package. “This is the first in a new series,” Fortier concludes, “and we can promise our readers one hell of a fun sci-fi ride.”

AIRSHIP 27 PRODUCTIONS Presents THE RETURN OF THE DOMINO LADY

Airship 27 Productions is thrilled to announce that pulpdom’s sexiest masked adventure is back in a brand new collection of her sexy exploits.  From a gang of corrupt policemen to secret Nazis saboteurs out to destroy the Los Angeles Olympics, the beautiful and wily crime-fighter has her hands full in this new quartet of tales by Gene Moyers, Brad Mengel, Robert Ricci and Paul Findley.

“Volume One of this series was a whopping success for us,” reports Airship 27 Productions’ Managing Editor Ron Fortier.  “We couldn’t keep copies on our tables at the pulp cons.  Our readers, both men and women, are extremely fascinated by this character as there were so few female pulp heroes back in the 30s and 40s.”

Airship 27 Productions was also thrilled to reassemble the art team that made Volume One so beautiful for the fans.  Under the helm of Art Director Rob Davis, artist James Lyle delivered another 12 fantastic black and white interior illustrations while Canadian Ted Hammond offered his second Domino Lady cover; a stunning image that captures the allure and mystery inherent in this great character.

As always, lovely socialite Ellen Patrick weaves her way in and out of trouble, donning her black silk domino mask whenever injustice rears its ugly head. From the time of her father’s murder, Ellen has dedicated herself to righting wrongs.  She just does it in a most peculiar fashion becoming the pulps’ most alluring and deadly hero; the Domino Lady.

DOMINO LADY: PULPDOM’S SEXIEST AVENGER

Airship 27 Productions is excited to announce the release of their first ever Domino Lady anthology.  “The question I’m always asked is, when are you going to do a Domino Lady book?” says Managing Editor Ron Fortier.  “Truth is, we had one half done several years ago but through a series of bizarre setbacks, it ended up being finished and released by another publisher.  Getting a new Domino Lady book done under our own imprint has a personal goal of mine ever since.”

The Domino Lady first appeared in the pulps in 1936.  After graduating from the Berkeley College in California, Ellen Patrick goes off to Europe on a joy filled jaunt.  Her trip is cut short when her widowed father, D.A. Owen Patrick is murdered by gangsters.  Upon her return home she learns the corrupt authorities have no intention of finding her father’s killers. Thus she puts on a domino mask and a backless white dress to avenge him.  Though arming herself with a small .22 automatic and a syringe full of knockout serum, the Domino Lady’s most effective weapon was her sensual beauty, which often distracted her opponents until she could turn the tables on them.

Now new pulp writers, Greg Hatcher, Gene Moyers, Tim Bruckner and Kevin Findley offer up four brand new adventures of Los Angeles’ most notorious, and sexiest, crime-fighter of them all, the Domino Lady!

“Of course you can’t do a Domino Lady book without recruiting the best artists available,” Fortier continues.  “And that’s exactly what we did.”  Well known comic pro, James Lyle, provides twelve gorgeous black and interior illustrations and graphic artist Ted Hammond, known for his amazing pin-up work, produced the stunning cover that graces the cover.  All of which was then perfectly assembled by Art Director Rob Davis to create a truly beautiful package no real pulp lover should do without.
