The cover fits the #WonderWoman archetype.
In a bit of synchronicity, I just read a review of a facsimile edition of #SensationComics - 38 (published in December 1944). The #PulpMagazines and #Comics reveal critiques of social values beliefs, and ideologies, plus providing intriguing entertainment. I guess that is why they attracted censorship and "moral outrage".

Posters, Tarot cards, propaganda, album covers!
Artist Todd Alcott does them all in a pulp magazine cultural mashup style.
Gift-giving season is just around the corner, so you might want to bookmark this site!
PS: I have no financial connection to Todd, but heard about him through Tom the Dancing Bug -- and Fediverse citizen in good standing -- Ruben Bolling, and I fell in love with his work.

It certainly is what it is. Unfortunately, unless presented in a more in depth critique of the history of #PulpMagazines and #WeirdTales, the visual will offend and upset many viewers who come upon it in their feed. Either delete, or add content warning with a more detailed discussion. When you look at the writers featured on the cover, it is a list of #WeirdFantasy's pulp who's who.

Dumpster Fire in The Gulf of America, 2025.

*** #Trump proposes renaming #TheGulfOfMexico. ****
The Gulf of America is actually the societal gap, in which #Truth, #Democray, and #Freedom, burn in a toxic cloud of #Hate, #Fear, and #Ignorance.

Central image, a Tesla Cybertruck burning in front of the Trump Hotel entrance, has been done in a fiery orange and yellow pulp magazine style. Surrounding it is a glitchy, surreal background featuring the faces of Elon Musk and Donald Trump.

This is a great site, though reading the flip book version of a pulp magazine on a phone is tricky, but it works nicely on a PC or Tablet.

#Asemic Portrait – J Scott Smart – The Fatman, Radio Detective

A Pataphor Collage Prose Poem:
The Fatman always flings facts

"He was as hard-boiled as a baked onion on an Antarctic jet stream; intellect shone through every layer of thought – his silent partner wore sunglasses, and carried a mime’s smile in his pocket."

The Chicago Newspaper Scene and the Origins of 10 Story Book

According to a 1906 overview of the history of fiction-focused periodical publishing in Chicago, the rise of Chicago-based literary story papers such as the Chicago Ledger and the Saturday Blade was fuelled in part by the rise of mail-order catalogue-based retail giants in that city and their advertising needs.
