💥 Doc Savage: #TheManofBronze (1975) is a gloriously goofy pulp adventure, packed with mad scientists, exotic villains and over-the-top heroics. #RonEly looks the part, but the campy humor often overwhelms the action. A fun slice of ’70s kitsch! #DocSavage #NowWatching

Happy John Nanovic Day!

"Many pulp fans today analyze the Shadow and Doc Savage novels for psychology and what have you. All we were giving the reader then is what he wanted — action. If there were other things in them, I never knew about it.” -- John Nanovic, 1977 #docsavage #pulpmags #johnnanovic
Credited with co-creating Doc Savage, John Leonard Nanovic (October 7, 1906 – February 9, 2001) was the magazine’s first editor. When readers think of Doc Savage, they often recall the bronze-skinned hero, his high-tech gadgets, or the breakneck pulp adventures that filled the pages of Doc Savage Magazine. But behind the Man of Bronze stood a guiding editorial hand: John L. Nanovic, the original editor who helped shape the magazine’s tone, style, and lasting legacy. Nanovic was a pivotal figure in the early years of pulp publishing, most notably through his work at Street & Smith, where he also oversaw The Shadow. When Doc Savage Magazine launched in 1933, it was Nanovic who helped translate publisher Henry W. Ralston‘s vision into a compelling, high-octane reality. Nanovic and Ralston are credited with the first (unpublished at the time) novella: Doc Savage, Supreme Adventurer. Nanovic worked closely with Lester Dent, steering the magazine’s blend of science fiction, adventure, and heroism into one of the defining titles of the pulp era. Under Nanovic’s editorial eye, Doc Savage wasn’t just another pulp, but a blueprint for the modern action hero. His emphasis on pacing, fantastic yet plausible plots, and tight characterization helped turn the magazine into a staple for readers of the 1930s and beyond. Though editors often go unsung, John L. Nanovic’s fingerprints are all over the success of Doc Savage Magazine, making him a true architect of pulp fiction’s golden age.

Today we celebrate the items that got us all through our Doc Savage years...the reprints!

Bantam beget Blackmask which beget Sanctum

(If you don't recognize the Blackmask reprints, check your e-texts. That's where those came from.) #docsavage #pulpmags #bantam

Oh how I'd love to see a #DocSavage big budget movie. Though as the John Carter movie was perceived as a rip off , general public might not see past the Superman comparison.

Does anyone have extra copies of these Doc Savage Bantam doubles? If you're willing to part with an extra, send @ajasont.bsky.social a message. #docsavage #pulpmags

I am this many stories shy of completing my run of Doc Savage Bantam reprints. I scored the last three omnibus editions today and these five books are all that remain.
A list of ten Doc Savage stories, two per book, that I have yet to collect: The Golden Man/Peril in the North; The Laugh of Death/The King of Terror; The Three Wild Men/The Fiery Menace; Devils of the Deep/The Headless Men; and The Goblins/The Secret of the Su. If you see these in the wild, let me know would you? This is the iconic cover painting for The Man of Bronze, the first Doc Savage adventure, by James Bama.

Doc Savage #18: The Monsters/The Whisker of Hercules
By Kenneth Robeson (Lester Dent)

Two more short novels, reprinted in the original pulp format, with the original interior illustrations. The second novel has probably the strangest title of all the Savage books.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Squarebound magazine format publication, with a cover painting illustration of a muscular man wearing a torn long-sleeved shirt, one sleeve completely missing. He is being held in a giant human hand, with a sickly grayish green color. In the background is the rippling surface if water.

Everyone is familiar with the Code of Doc Savage written by John Nanovic, but have you read the Code of Monk Mayfair? #docsavage #pulpmags #pulp #johnnanovic
The Code of Monk Mayfair Let me strive every moment to be of service to Doc, to the good people, and to my friends. Let me always think of ways to needle Ham, and to eliminate the bad people, with no regard for my personal safety. Let me smile when the heroine arrives, and remind her of Ham’s wife and 13 half-wit children. Let me be considerate whenever said heroine is watching. Let me do right by Habeas Corpus, and wrong Ham.
