THE OTHER LOG OF PHILEAS FOGG – NEW EDITION & PODCAST!

New Pulp Author Win Scott Eckert shared the following press release with All Pulp. You can read more about it here.

The Titan Books edition of The Other Log of Phileas Fogg by Philip Jose Farmer came out a few days ago, and here’s what people are saying:

Christopher Paul Carey: “I must say, WOW! This is the classiest production of the book that I’ve seen. I was thinking it would be nice, but it exceeds my expectations: a matte finish and raised text on the cover, high-quality paper stock, classy design work on both the interior and exterior, not to mention the new afterword and timeline by Win. I give this edition an A+.”

Art Sippo: “I just read the essay done by Win in The Other Log of Phileas Fogg Titan reprint. A terrific piece of work that actually links Philip Jose Farmer himself to the Wold Newton Universe and to many of the other characters in his stories. The detailed chronology is an extra added bonus. Great job, Win!”

The new edition also has the illustrations by Rick J. Bryant originally included in the early 1980s Tor edition, and is available in trade paperback and eBook.

Spider-Man Gets Spectacular On Your TeeVee

According to a press release, the new animated teevee series The Spectacular Spider-Man will be coming to the Kids’ WB! on The CW early next year.

Kids’ WB! Senior Vice President and General Manager Betsy McGowen states “The use of the ‘Spectacular’ title is an homage to Marvel’s wildly popular series of Spider-Man comics, and is very reflective of the enthusiasm and high regard we have for the production. This promises to be a stand-out animated series.”

Former DC Comics’ staffer Greg Weisman, who moved on to television to do Gargoyles, The Batman, and others, will be the show’s supervising producer and Victor Cook (Hellboy: Blood and Iron) will be producer/supervising director.
