Anyone else reading Weird Tales? I'm a big fan of Poe and Lovecraft and I just discovered that you can read the magazine on Archive.org for free. It's awesome and full of different stories and authors!

Anyone know the history or existence of "Crime" magazine

https://pulpcovers.com/girl-on-parole-67108/#2

I'm guessing it didn't have a long run, or the name of the magazine was changed at times. I see a "True Crime" with similar font but not quite the same. I also see there was a book "girl on parole" but it appears potentially unrelated.

"Spawn of Dagon" by Henry Kuttnern was the first pulp fiction story I ever read and I fell in love with the medium!

Cover art for "The Skeleton Men of Jupiter", a John Carter story - Amazing Stories (Feb. 1942)

Spoiler: they aren't actually skeletons, just creatures with no body fat and parchment-like skin stretched tight against the bones.

Looking for a half remembered book

Hey. I'm trying to find a book that I half remember reading and owning in my mid teens sometime in the 80's. I don't know the titel or the author, but I do remember a few details! :) Wanna try to help me figure this one out?

- It's a cheap paperback, pulp style novel from the 80's or late 70's

- It's set in Britain

- It's a time travel story about a modern day man somehow ending up in Roman/medieval times and getting mixed up in some kind of rebellion or war involving Celts or druids?

- And hooking up with a hot young female leader/queen who MAY OCH MAY NOT have been Boudicca. :)

- I kind of have a feeling that Hardian's wall might figure kind of prominently in the story, but I'm not sure.

- It was pretty lurid with (as I remember it) a lot of sex scenes. :)

- Not a thick book - maybe 200 pages long, maybe less.

- The edition I owned had a pretty boring photo cover of, I think, a landscape of green hills. Possibly with something else in the extreme foreground? Maybe even a Boudicca's toned ass.
