Airship27

Welcome to Airship 27

My name is Ron Fortier, and I have been a professional writer for over forty-five years. I have worked on comic book projects such as The Hulk, Popeye, Rambo and Peter Pan. With my two most popular comic series being The Green Hornet and The Terminator (with Alex Ross). With Ardath Mayhar I penned two TSR fantasy novels, and in 2001 I had my first play, a World War II romantic comedy, produced.

This site serves as a portfolio of the work I’ve done to date, as a showcase for projects in the works, and as home for my online Journal (below), which will be updated frequently.

I am currently writing and producing pulp novels and short stories for various publishers and have several movie scripts floating around Hollywood looking for a home, and if that isn’t enough, I also have a review column at the www.pulpfictionreviews.blogspot.com website.

A devoted grandfather of six, at 75, I am thrilled to be part of the new web-comic evolution. Part of this joy is in the realization of a life long dream, that of becoming a pulp writer.

Thanks for visiting, and enjoy your stay.

BROTHER BONES GRAPHIC NOVEL

Brobones Concept ch 05 - CopyBrobones Concept ch 06

And here’s the last two sets of character sheets by artist Joe Arnold for the Brother Bones Graphic Novel which he is hammering away on every day. The plan continues to be to divide the script into a mini-series to then be funded on one of the campaign platforms after which they would be collected. Each issue, a chapter of the graphic novel story, will also include a bonus short strip at the back to be done by guest artists. More as things near completion.

HAMLET’S END

PulpFission_HamletsEnd_DallasMaddox_CharacterDesign_FB_MemeIMG_0745

Hooked up with western artist Zane DeGaine this past week to discuss our comic project. “Hamlet’s End.” Zane has completed 16 of the 22 pgs making up issue # 1 and of course the cover (above left). He’s excited in getting those last 6 pgs wrapped up by the end of next week. This book will be funded by a Kickstarter Campaign which Zane will run and our plan is to set a goal which, when reached, will get the book published…but in black and white. Whereas there will be a second tier goal and if we can get to that benchmark, we’ll do the book in full color. So, Loyal Airmen, lots will depend on your support for sure. If all goes well, we hope to launch the campaign by the 1st of Nov. All fingers crossed.

THE BOSTON BOMBERS Vol 2

Pg3

Rob Davis continues his stellar work on the third issue of The Boston Bombers Vol 2. Above is his just completed page three.  We are so wound-for-sound. This is a story over twenty-years in the making.

JUNGLE TALES Vol 3

AIR-307JENNA

And finally we wrap up this week with announcing the release of our newest Airship 27 pulp title, JUNGLE TALES Vol 3 featuring Ki-Gor the Jungle Lord. This volume contains two brand new Ki-Gor adventures by Terry Wijesuriya and Carson Demmans. Writer Curtist Fernlund introduces Jenna of the Jungle (above right) and Bob Madison feature adventure Richmond Kane. In all four great jungle stories with interior illustrations by John Gallagher and a stunning cover by Ted Hammond. In all, we think you Loyal Airmen are going to love this book. As ever, available at Amazon in both paperback and on Kindle.

And that’s it for this busy week, Loyal Airmen, as always thanks for stopping by and God Bless.

Ron – Over & Out!
