  "Pulp Fiction" Pulp magazines ("the pulps") were inexpensive magazines produced in America from the early 1900s until the 1950s. They succeeded "dime novels" as cheap fiction that sold widely. Pulps were printed on cheap paper with ragged, untrimmed edges. But the covers, printed on better quality slick paper, featured full-color art -- often lurid and sensational. Interior illustrations were black and white, pen drawings. The magazines were prices at 10 to 25 cents apiece and typically ran 128 pages or a little more. The pulps were usually produced monthly -- sometimes weekly. Paper shortages in World War II added to the costs of pulps and forced some publishers to reduce the format to a smaller, digest size. When the genre declined it was replaced by comic books and paperback novels. Many respected authors wrote for the pulps, such as Ray Bradbury, Arthur C. Clarke, Erle Stanley Gardner, Dashiell Hammett, Edgar Rice Burroughs, Zane Grey, and Jack London. Memorable characters introduced by the pulps included Buck Rogers, Conan the Barbarian, Doc Savage, Tarzan, Zorro, and Hopalong Cassidy.
41. SDLIBT_190716_004.JPG: Sky Fighters (June 1933) Filled with thrilling stories of aerial combat, Sky Fighters ran from 1932 to 1950.
42. SDLIBT_190716_012.JPG: The Shadow Magazine (June 1, 1933) The mystery character "The Shadow" was introduced in a radio program: Detective Story Hour, on July 31, 1930. Pulp writer Walter B. Gibson developed the character for the popular magazine series in 1931, which continued until 1949.
43. SDLIBT_190716_019.JPG: Doc Savage Magazine (September 1933) The heroic-adventure character of "Doc Savage" was introduced in March 1933 by the creators of "The Shadow." Doc fought evil in the magazine until 1949, but his character also appeared in radio, film, comic books, and paperbacks.
44. SDLIBT_190716_029.JPG: Amazing Stories (October 1933) The science fiction genre in pulp fiction magazines began with Amazing Stories in 1926. The first issue featured stories short stories by Jules Verne and H.G. Wells. The long running magazine lasted until February 2005.
45. SDLIBT_190716_033.JPG: Startling Detective (September 1933) Originally a crime fiction magazine that began in December 1929, it continued as a true crime magazine after June 1930.
46. SDLIBT_190716_047.JPG: The Comics The earliest comic books were compilations of previously-published humorous strips from newspapers. The first comic book was Funnies on Parade, published in 1933. Comic books soon diversified to include stories from a variety of genres, but the name remained. Collectors categorize comic books by various "Ages." The publication of Action #1 (June, 1938), which contained all-new material and was the first appearance of Superman, marks the beginning of the Golden Age (1938-1956). Superman was soon followed by other super-characters. At their height, superhero comics were selling up to a million copies per monthly issue. The 1940s and 1950s also produced many non-superhero comics. After the end of WWII superheroes declined in popularity, and the comic book industry struggled. Fortunately, new genres reflecting trends in popular culture -- crime, horror, science fiction, and romance -- emerged. The popularity of these genres gave the flagging comic industry a boost, but was almost it's [sic] downfall as well. In 1954 Dr. Frederic Wertham published "Seduction of the Innovent," which blamed comic books for juvenile delinquency. There were comic book burnings and Supreme Court hearings; to protect their industry comic book publishers created the Comics Code Authority to regulate and curb violence in comics. The Code symbol subsequently appeared on approved comic books, curtailing the crime and horror genre. The Silver Age (1956-1970) saw superheroes make a comeback in updated forms. It began with the publication of DC Comics' Showcase #4 (Oct. 1956), which introduced the modern version of the Flash. Following the success of Showcase #4, several other 1940s superheroes were reworked. The characters' names remained the same, but their costumes and identities changed. During the Bronze Age (1970-1985), traditional superhero titles remained the driving force of the industry. However, darker plot elements and more storylines addressing real-world issues (racism, drug use, urban property, and environmental pollution) began to flourish during this period. The Dark Age -- also known as the Iron Age -- began in 1986, with the publication of Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns and Alan Moore's Watchmen. Dark and gritty , they kick-started a trend for portraying superheroes as Anti Heroes. The Modern Age (1996-present) has some lingering elements of the Dark Age, but also a return towards lighter and happier comics. Other features of the era are the rise fo the graphic novel as respectable reading material and non-superhero comics becoming more mainstream.
47. SDLIBT_190716_050.JPG: Showcase presents Metal Men #38 (June 1962) Showcase has been the title of several comic anthology series published by DC Comics. The general theme of these series has been to feature new and minor characters as a way to gauge reader interest in them, without the difficulty and risk of featuring "untested" characters in their ongoing titles. The Metal Men appeared in three issues of Showcase (#38-40, June-October 1962) and proved popular enough to warrant a reappearance in their own eponymous title.
48. SDLIBT_190716_055.JPG: Donald Duck #28 (March 1953) This series of comics originally started in the Four Color series. During the 1950s, if certain characters proved popular enough, they would get their own independent series, so the Donald Duck series started with #26 (#1-#25 appeared in the Four Color Comics series) in 1952.
