The greatest multi-genre fiction digest of the 21st century returns with eight stunning short stories by John M. Floyd, Stephen J. Golds, Matthew X. Gomez, Stephen D. Rogers, Louise Taylor, Dustin Walker, and Patrick Whitehurst. This issue features a non-fiction article by Anthony Perconti. Bob Vojtko provides more entertaining cartoons. Art director Richard Krauss and illustrator Ran Scott have worked their tails off making this the most stunning issue yet. Chief editor Alec Cizak simply allowed all this talent to come together and create yet another gold standard for independent fiction digests.

Pulp Culture.

Pulp Fiction.

Pulp Modern.

The most influential independent fiction digest evolves yet again. In addition to the usual selection of outstanding short stories by today's top writers, Pulp Modern now features a host of non-fiction articles and opinion pieces.

Continuing its celebration of its first decade of independent publishing excellence, the year 1981 is examined, a year pivotal in the formation of society's current state. This means a number of stories taking place in the year 1981 as well as articles about the events and social concerns of the era. The AIDS and crack-cocaine crises are explored as well as the dawn of hip hop as a major musical force and 1981's gold rush of slasher cinema.

Before the issue closes out, Switchblade Magazine editor Scotch Rutherford addresses the infection in independent publishing that generated needless controversy over the course of 2020 and 2021.

Interior illustrations are provided by the immensely talented Carmelo J. Guarnera while cover art is provided by Michael Neno. This issue features cartoons by Clark Dissmeyer. As always, art direction by Richard Krauss and super easy editor-in-chief duties are attended to by Alec Cizak. 

Over the last ten years, Pulp Modern has set the standard for independent fiction digests, inspiring an entire new generation of indie journals. Celebrate Pulp Modern's 10th birthday with eight killer pieces of pulp fiction and an outstanding article about Walter Moseley written by Anthony Perconti.

The celebration begins with an ace piece of crime fiction by Karen Harrington. We get samples of the greatness of indie writers such as Anthony Neil Smith, Andrew Miller, and Stephen J. Golds. Nathan Pettigrew provides an odd slice of life between a father and son whose concerns about breaking the law don't get in the way of their more domestic and material endeavors. We get a nice slice of fantasy and horror from C.J. Dotson and Sarah Cannavo. Chicago's unofficial poet laureate, Tia Ja'nae, shows us just why she's the most important crime fiction writer today. Finally, Edward A. Grainger (aka David Cranmer) brings his classic western marshal, Cash Laramie, back for another adventure. Fitting, considering Cash Laramie made an appearance in the very first issue of Pulp Modern, way back in 2011, when the world still made just a little bit of sense...

Richard Krauss returns as art director. Ran Scott provides illustrations. And editor Alec Cizak sits back and lets all these talented writers and artists do their thing.

The cornerstone of the independent pulp fiction revolution returns and raises the bar once more. The stories begin with the apocalypse and venture into dark and entertaining territory. No brow-beating fiction here, just pure storytelling, the way it's SUPPOSED to be. Featuring stories by Nils Gilbertson and Mandi Jourdan, among many others. Interior art by Ran Scott. A killer cover illustration by legendary Rick McCollum. As always, art direction by Richard Krauss and chief editing duties performed by Alec Cizak. 

Pulp Modern and Uncle B. Publications are official members of the Independent Fiction Alliance.

The future's so bleak, we got to throw it some shade!

And Ran Scott delivers cover-to-cover illustrations to help make this a must-have for fans of science fiction everywhere.

Featuring brand new fiction by Rex Weiner, Russell Thayer, C.W. Blackwell, Albert Tucher, Matthew X. Gomez, Scott Forbes Crawford, Adam S. Furman, Adam S. House, and S. Craig Renfroe Jr. Issue four marks a return to Pulp Modern's roots with original illustrations by Ran Scott, Alfred Klosterman, Dan W. Taylor, Rick McCollum, and Brian Buniak. The stories begin with a wild L.A. trip courtesy Rex Weiner, the man responsible for Ford Fairlane, and travel the gamut of crime before shifting to sword and sorcery, science fiction, and closing with a pair of brutal rural horror stories. Get a glimpse of the future of genre fiction, get a copy of the latest edition of Pulp Modern. Edited, as always, by Alec Cizak and designed by Richard Krauss and featuring the cartooning genius of Bob Vojtko.

Pulp Modern was almost dead. Lackluster sales numbers had pushed editor Alec Cizak to the brink of shutting it down for good. Then he got the idea of making each issue themed. The 50th anniversary of the coup in Dealey Plaza was coming up, so Cizak decided to make the murder of JFK the first theme. Heavy-hitters like Joe Clifford, Rob Pierce, Chris Rhatigan, and Mav Skye stepped up to the plate to help knock this one out of the park and keep the digest alive and kicking.

Issue Five of the legendary first run of Pulp Modern. While the golden age of the online pulp revolution was coming to an end, with the bulk of the major outlets shutting their doors, Pulp Modern kept  the movement alive. This issue features stories by Patti Abbott and the late Ron Scheer.
