| Bill Blackbeard: April 28, 1926 – March
10, 2011 It was reported April 25 that comic strip historian and archivist Bill Blackbeard died March 10 in a northern California nursing home. He was 84. Born in Lawrence, Ind., Blackbeard and his family moved to California when Blackbeard was still a child. There, his passion for newspaper strip collecting took off when, at the age of 12, he discovered a neighbor's garage packed with thousands of old newspapers, whose colorful Sunday sections caught his eye. Blackbeard was given the papers by the neighbor who wanted to clear them out of his garage, a familiar theme that would keep Blackbeard's collection growing in future years. As a freelance writer, Blackbeard wrote, edited or contributed to more than 200 books on cartoons and comic strips, including the Smithsonian Collection of Newspaper Comics (1977), 100 Years of Comic Strips, the Krazy & Ignatz series (Eclipse/Fantagraphics) and NBM's 18-volume Wash Tubbs and Captain Easy. Finding that libraries were discarding bound newspapers after microfilming, he established the San Francisco Academy of Comic Art in 1968 as a non-profit organization and began collecting newspapers from California libraries, expanding his scope to institutions nationwide. Following three decades of acquisition, accumulating some 75 tons of material, he turned the SFACA Collection over to Ohio State University's Billy Ireland Cartoon Library & Museum, where it is available for research. |

| FarmerCon VI - July
29-31, 2011! It is now official, FarmerCon VI will be held July 29-31, 2011 in Columbus, OH at PulpFest! PulpFest is held at the Ramada Plaza Hotel and Conference Center. Rooms are available at the "PulpFest Rate" of only $79 per night. However, to get this rate, you cannot book your room online, you must call their toll free number: 877-609-6086 and reserve your room over the phone. Remember to mention PulpFest to get the discounted rate. To sign up for FarmerCon VI, first reply to this email to be added to the list. While there is no charge for FarmerCon VI, you must Register with PulpFest to attend. Amazingly, you can attend all three days of PulpFest for only $30! If you will be traveling to Columbus and staying overnight, you should book a room at the Ramada Plaza Hotel and Conference Center now. The $79 per night room rate is a great deal, and being in the same hotel gives FarmerCon attendees that much more time to hang out. Attendees almost always go out together somewhere for a meal or two and will likely be looking to do that again. So be sure to tell Mike Croteau you're coming, don't just decide to drop in at the last minute. PulpFest and FarmerCon programming is still to be determined, but suggestions are welcome; both to me for FarmerCon and to PulpFest for their programming as well. Also, Meteor House will have a table in the Dealers Room where you will find back issues of Farmerphile, select items from Philip José Farmer's estate sale, The Worlds of Philip José Farmer 1: Protean Dimensions, The Worlds of Philip José Farmer 2: Of Dust and Soul and perhaps more. So, if you want to come to FarmerCon VI, here is a quick summary of the steps you need to take: 1. Tell Mike Croteau you are coming via email (mike@pjfarmer.com) 2. Register for PulpFest 3. Unless you live nearby, call 877-609-6086 and book your room. |

Rollins: JAKE RANSOM AND THE HOWLING SPHINX
Using his father's watch as a key, Jake intends to return to Calypsos.
Instead he's thrust into a strange desert land where he's joined by his friends
Marika, Pindor, and Bach'uuk and his sister, Kady. As they try to figure out
what to do next, a surprise attack by the beautiful young Princess Nefertiti
takes them all captive. Arriving in book stores May 3rd! Soon even she is battling the Skull King's minions. For Jake has something the Skull King wants—a prize that will give its owner awesome power, including control of the fearsome Howling Sphinx. In a new pounding adventure, Jake races against time to outfight and outwit Kalverum Rex, knowing that if the Skull King wins, he'll be unstoppable. Filled with unexpected danger, challenging puzzles, and dazzling action, this is a first-rate, fast-paced thriller—a read only James Rollins could have created!

The Jake Ransom series is inspired by Doc Savage and his attempt to craft a modern pulp story. Hardcover: 256 pages Publisher: HarperCollins ISBN-10: 0061473820 ISBN-13: 978-0061473821 $16.99 |

| Yellowed Perils -
New blog post! William Lampkin written up an interview with the editor of a new, more dramatic version of "Doc Savage: The Man of Bronze." It's his second attempt to fix the 1975 film. We showed his first try — "Doc SaLvageD" — at Doc Con X. Nice try, but still not a great movie. A draft of his new edit — "Doc Savage: The Man of Bronze — DeTarnished" — does quite a good job of turning the movie into an adventure film — rather than a campy flick. He's hoping to post a final version of the re-edited film soon. |

| PULP ARK - May 13-15, 2011! PULP ARK, the Pulp Convention/Creators' Conference debuting May 13-15, 2011 in Batesville, AR, is proud to announce that the event will be held in a location that is a primary part of local history in the historic Arkansas town. Built in 1880, the three story building that will be the home of the first PULP ARK enjoyed life as Batesville's Opera House for eight years. It was renovated and made into a mercantile store after that and then later was home to various other enterprises. It currently houses THE CINNAMON STICK, a coffee and sandwich restaurant. The over 6,000 square feet of space provides not only ample places for tables, displays and guests, but access to the lower level provides an onsite location for panels and classrooms. The lower level, largely untouched since the building's construction, except for electricity being added, served as the dressing area for the various opera stars and performers in the building's original incarnation. A hotspot of activity, The Cinnamon Stick plays host to musicians, artists, and performers on a weekly basis as well as to customers ranging in age from high school kids to senior citizens. The location, 151 W. Main Street in Downtown Batesville, is surrounded by various amenities. Currently there are three restaurants on the street; The Cinnamon Stick, Elizabeth's, and The Greasy Spoon. These three offer a variety of food and if that were not enough, various other restaurants are within a 1-5 mile radius of the location. Various antique stores, an used book store, a gym, and various other types of businesses line Batesville's historic downtown area. SCHEDULE FOR PULP ARK NOTE-This is the schedule as of today. Changes may occur. If a timeslot has 'PANELS/CLASSROOM' in it, that means it is an open spot for a panel or classroom. If these are not filled, then there will be no set aside panel or classroom at that time. The activity in the Main Hall will be available. THURSDAY MAY 12, 2011-Noon-?
