Windy City Pulp Con Photos!

As promised, here are some photos from the Pulp con I, and several other members of the Pulp Factory, attended.  What a great show.

I landed back in Kentucky a bit under the weather from the travels (or perhaps
just running back into Kentucky’s humid environs), but my head was still
jangling with the sights and sounds of the Con. It was great meeting the fellow
Factory Workers there and putting faces to the names..Ron “Daddy-o” Fortier, Rob
“look at this and tell me what YOU see” Davis, Andrew “THE Andrew Salmon”
Salmon, Van “Sure Dave, I’ll drive you over there” Plexico, Wayne
“Poster-Master” Reinagel, and of course Doug “Yeah, I did the cover” Klauba.

The smell of pulp was definitely in the air, and though this isn’t the first
pulp show I’d been to, it was certainly the best. For me, seeing the fantastic
pulp art itself would have been worth it, but hanging out with the Factory
Fellows made it fantastic.

Special thanks to Van for hauling my butt all over Chicago, and to Doug for
sharing a table with me!

Me (complete with geek lanyard) talking about pulp, no doubt!
