As we prepare for “Summer’s AMAZING Pulp Con,” beginning on July 21 in the Hyatt Regency hotel and the Greater Columbus Convention Center, PulpFest would like to take the opportunity to thank the sponsors of our website for their significant contributions to our convention.

Ron Hubbard. “The Green God,” Hubbard’s first fiction story to be published in a popular fiction magazine, appeared in Standard Magazine’s THRILLING ADVENTURES in 1934. The author of such pulp classics as “Final Blackout,” “Fear,” and “Typewriter in the Sky,” L. Ron Hubbard went on to become a bestselling author with more than 320 million copies of his works in circulation. The annual L. RON HUBBARD WRITERS OF THE FUTURE anthology, featuring new authors selected by a panel of distinguished authors, is likewise published by Galaxy Press.

(Galaxy Press writer L. Ron Hubbard‘s stories appeared in seventeen issues of ARGOSY WEEKLY, all published in 1936 and 1937. Although his name was often featured on the cover, his only story to receive ARGOSY cover billing was “Mr. Luck,” published in the October 3, 1936 issue. However, V. E. Pyles’ cover art illustrated Theodore Roscoe’s “King of Beasts.” Also featured in the issue were stories by Edgar Rice Burroughs and Robert E. Howard, making the number a highly collectible issue of the magazine. PulpFest 2016 will be saluting the 120th anniversary of ARGOSY, the first pulp magazine.)
