A bit of ‘Lovecraft in New York’ art that I hadn’t seen before. On the cover of the pamphlet The Private Life Of H. P. Lovecraft (Necronomicon Press, 1992)…

What if… Lovecraft had lived, and been taken up as a comic book writer by EC Comics in the mid 1950s…?

All-Story in the 1910s

All-Story covers, from the 1910s run of this proto-pulp. One can see why these story magazines might have appealed to the young Lovecraft, who was an avid reader of them…

These covers were taken from a ERBzine survey of appearances of Edgar Rice Burroughs stories. More might be found, from a complete run of cover images of the 1910s.

Madness Immemorial

The Green Hand Bookshop, hailing out of Portland in the USA, has a nice set of images of works in their current gallery show Madness Immemorial: a tribute to H.P. Lovecraft. Last year I published a book on Lovecraft and New York, so the picture “Lovecraft in Brooklyn” by Brandon Kawashima was especially appealing to me…

S.T. Joshi’s blog updates

A new blog post was made yesterday by S.T. Joshi…

“I was pleased to be asked by Scarecrow Press to initiate a series of scholarly or academic books on weird fiction. The series will, I believe, be called The Literature of the Supernatural.”

And the much-anticipated ‘heavily illustrated’ version of the biography, H.P. Lovecraft: Nightmare Countries, seems to be progressing well. I’m certainly really champing at the bit for that one.

Congratulations, joster285

And the winner of my recent iClone competition is… joster285. Congratulations! The licences for iClone 4 Pro, 3DXchange 4 Pro, and CrazyTalk 6 Pro are on the way to him. It was a very difficult choice, but sadly there was only one prize to give. Here’s his pitch for making a Lovecraft movie using the iClone real-time movie-making software…

“I would adapt ‘From Beyond’. It’s quite an interesting tale about exploration and distorted reality. Of course, I’m familiar with the Stuart Gordon film adaptation, though, but after making several Lovecraft adaptations with The Movies, I feel that iClone would be the best way to tell the story. I would do the movie in the style of a psychological thriller with minimum dialogue. For visuals, when Tillinghast and his assistant enter the alternative dimension, every time the scene switches camera angles, the color scheme will fade into a different color giving it a distorted feel.”

Two rather fuzzy glimpses inside the original pulp publication of Lovecraft’s “At The Mountains of Madness” (Astounding, 1936), recently given away as first prize in a videogame competition…
