AIRSHIP 27 PRODUCTION PRESENTS NOWHERE ON EARTH: A PANTERELLA NOVEL

American tycoon, E.C. Endicott wants to develop hundreds of acres of the Amazon jungle to fatten his own commercial empire. He thus threatens the lost Kingdom of the Mouku, a magical tribe whose people possess shape-shifting abilities.

One of these is Panambi, who works in the port town of Rocinante as a barmaid in her role as Miss Mariposa. When she learns of Endicott’s arrival and the threat he poses to her people, she enlists the aid of two big-game hunters, Patrick MacDonald and Ji-ho Chio. Theirs is an almost impossible task unless Panambi can recruit the aid of the Onkas, the magical black jaguars of the hidden jungle, at the same time keeping her own secret.

Writers Michael Panush and Charles Santino offer up a fresh, exciting jungle adventure set against the mysterious backdrop of the Amazon Jungle. Here are strange characters, exotic animals and danger everywhere. It’s a pulse-pound tale illustrated by artist Ron Hill with a dynamic cover by Ted Hammond.

When a well-known environmentalist goes missing in the surrounding woods, he’s hired to find her.

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.

AIRSHIP 27 PRODUCTION PROUDLY PRESENTS THE CHALLENGER CHRONICLES

George Edward Challenger is a fictional character in a series of fantasy and science fiction stories by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Unlike Doyle’s intellectual super detective, Sherlock Holmes, Professor Challenger is an aggressive and hot-tempered, dominating figure. The fearless scientist was accompanied on his perilous missions by reporter Edward “Ned” Malone who narrated the adventures.

“After the tremendous success of our Holmes series, it was only natural that we’d one day take on Prof. Challenger,” reports Airship 27 Production’s Managing Editor Ron Fortier. “When Gordon Dymowski approached us about that very concept, I suggested he go ahead and write the bible for such a series. He did so with panache and just like that three of his writing colleagues signed on. We are extremely excited about this first volume.”

Now Airship 27 Production is thrilled to debut brand new adventures of this classic pulp character as written by today’s finest New Pulp scribes. In this premier volume, writers Gordon Dymowski, Barbara Doran, Michael Panush and Samantha Lienhart sent the daring Challenger to strange and exotic locales always in the search of new wonders and thrills. Artist Clayton Hinkle provides both the interior illustrations and the dramatic color cover.

AIRSHIP 27 PRODUCTION PRESENTS MURDER AT THE DAWN OF TIME

In the first city of the Stone Age, a Neanderthal lawman hunts the world’s first serial killer. During a time of monstrous beasts and warring tribes, the sprawling Cro-Magnon settlement known as the Heap is a home to new things: safety, trade, peace—and law.  Red, a Broadhead exile adopted by the Heap, keeps those laws. He is a Fang, a sworn protector of the Heap’s people, and he’s dealt with everything from prehistory’s first crime lords and caveman blood feuds to forest-dwelling cannibals and mammoth stampedes. 

Now, a new terror comes to the Heap: the Blood-Spiller, a masked nightmare who kills without provocation. Red and his partner, the clever former warrior Star, struggle to catch this new killer in the flickering torchlight and primeval shadows of the dawn of mankind.  And lurking under it all, a brewing war between the Heap and Red’s Neanderthal kin—and the dark conspiracy behind the birth of civilization itself.

Writer Michael Panush delivers a truly remarkable tale set against the backdrop of mankind’s earliest presence on the planet. Artist Earl Geier provides both the cover and interior illustrations while Art Director Rob Davis the book design. An unusual adventure for pulp fans everywhere.

We’re thrilled that our pulp scribes have jumped at the chance of writing new stories of this larger-than-life American hero.” 

Artist Warren Montgomery provides the cover and Rob Davis interior illustrations. Writers Michael Panush, Thomas McNulty, Gary Phillips, and Mel Odom offer up tales of the frontier as seen through the eyes of the greatest lawman of them all.

AIRSHIP 27 PRODUCTIONS Returns to – METROPOLIS

Airship 27 Productions is proud to announce the release of their newest title, “The Towers of Metropolis,” a prequel anthology based on silent sci-fi movie.

In 1927 German filmmaker Fritz Lang brought to the screen one of the most ground breaking sci-fi melodramas of all time based on the screenplay he co-wrote with his wife, novelist Thea von Harbou. Set in a futuristic urban dystopia, the story follows the attempts of Freder, the son of the city’s ruler, and Maria, a citizen of the lower levels, to bridge the gulf separating the economic classes of the city. It is regarded as a classic and one of the first full-length movies in the genre.

“I first saw the film at the World Science Fiction Convention years ago,” reports Airship 27 Productions’ Managing Editor, Ron Fortier. “It simply blew me away. That a film this sophisticated and brilliant could be realized during the earliest days of movie making was astounding. Those images of that futuristic city and its underlying cautionary tale simply became a part of me. I never forgot them. To put together this anthology and revisit that world has been something truly special for all of us here at Airship 27. We hope our fans will enjoy our efforts here.”

Now five visionary new pulp writers have envisioned four dramatic tales which unfold in this amazing world prior to the events of that film. The book begins with a special introductory essay by author Fred Lang, Jr. and then William & Michael Maynard join forces with Michael Panush, Kevin Noel Olson and Erik Franklin to guide readers back to those vaulted, shining Towers of Metropolis in this new collection inspired by Lang’s masterpiece.

Award winning Metropolis enthusiast Michael Kaluta provides the cover with artist Pedro Cruz offering twelve amazing interior illustrations. All beautifully assembled by Airship 27 Art Director Rob Davis to create a book any fan of the film will want for their personal library.

“Metropolis is something truly unique in the annals of science fiction history,” Fortier concludes. “I believe we’ve done it justice with The Towers of Metropolis.”
