Nightmare Town - Pt. 5

(click on the above image for a bigger reading experience ;))

Hello Pulp friends :)

You all will be happy to know that - starting today and for the next few months' Sundays - I am back to 2 "CLASSICS" installments here at Pulp Sunday: the hard boiled illustrated "NIGHTMARE TOWN" (written by Dashiell Hammett) and the exotic adventure of The Black Beetle in "KARA BOCEK" (written and illustrated by me).

Let's start today with part 5 of Dashiell Hammett's NIGTHMARE TOWN (if you need to refresh the emeory or start from part 1, click here) and please remember I am still running the HALLOWEEN SPECIAL on SCHERMOSCURO Vol.1 and/or print, so feel free to use the sidebar PAYPAL button to order the book and get an original sketch inside (see below). It's a great way to have something nice on your shelf and support Pulp Sunday at the same time :)



Hope you guys dig it and hope you all had a fantastic Pulp Sunday :)

Cheers,
Francesco

31 Days of Halloween ~ 31: The Grand Finale!

Hello Pulp Friends

As mentioned on Day 1 of this Classic Horror Marathon, I did this little project a few years ago: each evening of October, all month long, I sat down for an hour and drew a tribute to a classic horror movie. At the end of the month I revealed the Grand Finale to this little project, the same way I am revealing it now to you all.

So please go ahead: you are only 2 clicks away from your ultimate Halloween experience :)

CONTEST
Hope you enjoy it and if you do, please leave a note: I will randomly pick a winner between all entries posted until midnight ET of Nov 1st: Day of the Dead.
The winner will receive a little Francavilla horror package :)

I am also running a Halloween Special on my book - collecting this Classic Horror Movies illos (and more artwork that you haven't seen here) - SCHERMOSCURO Vol.1 and prints of the Grand Finale. Check out the side bar on the left for ordering via PayPal (books and prints are discounted and rates listed include shipping). This special sale goes all November long and amount of books are limited (
Book is limited edition, signed and numbered, and includes a little original horror sketch of my choice in the back.

EDIT: WE HAVE A WINNER!!! :)
Thank you everyone for entering the contest, I really appreciate it :)
I resorted to a very scientific (Napoletan) method, the Tombola, to pick a random winner. The method consists in putting all the numbers in this basket:

and then give it a swirl and then flip it over: the number 11 came out, which means PAUL is our winner.
Paul, please send me your address and I will send you the goodies: a copy of SCHERMOSCURO Vol.1, a copy of SORROW GN, an archival print of the GRAND FINALE :)

Everyone else: please feel free to grab the book or the print (or both) during this month long sale event: all shipping and handling expenses are on me so you can save from 7 to 15 $. :)
Just click on the side paypal bar for easy ordering :)
And stay tuned, as I plan to do another little contest toward the end of the month.
