Men's adventure magazines were a form of pulp publishing which
flourished in 1950s and 1960s America, pandering to the cruelty and
lust of young men with luridly illustrated stories of war, sleaze
and savagery. They arose partly in response to the inauguration of
the Comics Code in 1954, as a way of circumventing censorship by
presenting material in a new, "adults-only" format. The prime years
of the men's adventure magazine unleashed a visual and verbal
deluge of exposed and tormented flesh, bloody mayhem and sexual
delinquency, representing a unique cultural phenomenon in US
publishing and art. SOFT FLESH AND ORGIES OF DEATH is a new
anthology which collects some prime examples of text and artwork
from a range of men's adventure magazines published between 1955
and 1963. The Feature section includes a selection of semi-factual
confessions and case histories on sensationalistic subjects ranging
from psychotropic drugs, carnival freaks and nude gladiators to
prostitution, devil worship and cannibal death cults; the Fiction
section includes numerous examples of garishly illustrated short
pulp fiction, with categories including war, white slavery, Nazi
horror, jungle curses, pirates, Red menace, mobsters, torture,
sadism, and erotic carnage. Cover art is also included, in full
color and in detail. The book includes more than 30 features and
stories, more than 100 illustrations, and 32 pages of full colour,
with work by such classic pulp artists as Norm Eastman, Norman
Saunders and John Duillo. Features and stories include: HANDMAIDENS
OF HORROR FOR THE DEVILS BLOOD ORGIES; THE UNHOLY NAKED GERMAN
WITCH CULTS; JUKEBOX GOONS EXPLODED MY GUTS ; DEATH ORGY OF THE
LEOPARD WOMEN; SOFT FLESH FOR SATANS BUBBLING CAULDRON; HITLERS
DEATH GAME; NYMPHO TIGER QUEEN OF LAOS; CHAINED NUDES FOR THE
DEVILS SEAT IN HELL: LUST REVENGE OF THE DEPRAVED NAZI CAT MASTER;
SHACKLED NUDES FOR THE BUTCHERS FLAYING KNIFE; SOFT BRIDE FOR THE
SLITHERING MONSTER FROM HELL; and NUDE LUST SLAVES OF HITLERS
RUSSIAN MONSTER. Pulp Mayhem is a new illustrated book series of
vintage pulp fiction, art and pop culture.
