Flesh Like Smoke
Edited by Brian M. Sammons
​
"Shape-shifters, skin-walkers, werewolves - the beasts go by many names and take on many different forms. Some fight the curse, others relish the freedom as they stalk and consume their human prey. Sixteen terrifying new stories from today's modern masters of literary horror featuring tortured souls with thoughts dark and twisted... and flesh like smoke." Contain my story: "Scoop".

Lemon Herberts
Edited by Jim Beard
"MADNESS! Beat it, Beatles! Move over, Monkees! Roll it up, Rolling Stones! Here comes the greatest, grooviest, gearest rock-and-roll group of all time: The Lemon Herberts! Hot on the heels of their chart-topping hit album, Redwing Blackbird’s Summer Solstice Tea Party, the Lemon Herberts launch themselves on their very first world tour – and straight into more danger, more peril, more sheer adventure than they ever bargained for! They're trouble-magnets that even their long-suffering manager, the mysterious Brighton Hawks, can’t hope to contain. Just ask the Lemon Herberts’ legion of screaming fans: they’re wild, they’re wonderful, they’re simply the most! Herberts’ creator Jim Beard leads a band of groovy authors for a New Pulp collection that will have you tapping your toes and humming along as the Lemon Herberts conquer the world, shining their music into hearts both dark and light around the globe!"

Super Swinging Hero 1968 Special
Edited by Jim Beard
"They NEVER wrote them like this! Swingin’ Superhero 1968 Special brings together some of the most outlandish send-ups in all of comicdom! The far-out folks Jim Beard (St. Janus Spirit Breaker) and Lee Houston Jr. has assembled a kooky collection of heroes straight from the flip side. It’s going to be far out. Thrill to the afterlife adventures of Ghostman. Witness the outrageous origin of the Substandard Quintet! Hang out with Beauty and the Beetle as they solve a mystery of Lovecraftian proportions! The sky’s the limit for these Swingin’ Heroes. Join comics legend David Michelinie (Iron Man), Chuck Miller, Lisa Collins, Mark Halegua, Irwin K. Roberts, Lisa M. Collins, Bonnie J. Sterling, Thomas Deja and Sam Gafford as these spaced-out chroniclers of this way out world bring you an uncanny collection of superhero prose fiction unlike anything you’ve ever seen before!"
