\"TheFor fans of Doc Savage<\/a><\/strong>, the fanzine<\/a> to get is Howard Wright<\/strong>‘s excellent The Bronze Gazette<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Published since 1990 (when it was originally titled The Doc Savage Gazette<\/em> for the first four issues), the Gazette<\/em> is published about three times a year. Subscriptions are for three issues, and Howard is currently taking subscriptions for issues 68, 69 and 70. Full info can be found at Pulp Coming Attractions<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I have subscribed to the Gazette<\/em> for a long time, though I am missing issues. I have always enjoyed it, and there have been a lot of good articles and information in it. It was in The Bronze Gazette<\/em> that we learned how Bantam picked up the reprinting of Doc, and who designed the logo and graphic style of the covers. Several past issues of the Gazette<\/em> reprinted Street & Smith’s Doc Savage comic book stories (in color!). This was my first chance to read these stories, even if they are pretty bad.<\/p>\n

To give you an idea of what they’ve covered, here is what has been in some of the recent issues.<\/p>\n

Issues #64<\/strong> (June 2012) and #65<\/strong> (September 2012) focused on what happened to Millennium Comics’ planned second issue of their “Repel” comic book adaptation. Issue 64 told us what happened, and 65 was mainly devoted to publishing the script for the second comic.<\/p>\n

Issue #66<\/strong> (February 2013) was devoted to artist and Doc fan David Burton<\/strong>, who recently passed away. There was also a review of the new Doc novel, “Death’s Dark Domain,” and a report on Doc Con XV<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Issue #67<\/strong> (July 2013) was taken up mainly by a long article on the Doc Savage comic book stories prior to DC’s First Wave series. This article was a great overview of all of these, pointing out the good (if any) and bad points of each. We also get a great character gallery by Ron Wilber<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

As noted, I have never been disappointed by The Bronze Gazette<\/em>. I have already re-upped for the next three issues. So if you are a Doc fan, be sure to check them out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
