Why am I at SoundAdviceForToday.com?
A while ago, I had the ComicsOnTheBrain.com URL built through Yahoo. I found that GoDaddy's Blog capabilities are vastly superior to Yahoo's, so I slowly converted the site to this and then redirected all of ComicsOnTheBrain's traffic here. Once I have enough time, am satisfied it will go smoothly and have the extra cash, I'll probably integrate the two sites under the ComicsOnTheBrain banner.

Comics on the Brain: Pulp like a pirate!

Pulp like a pirate!

Pulp magazines and dime novels are no strangers to telling tales of pirates. In fact, there's quite a lot of pirate themed fiction that hit America in the "pulp" time period, which started around 1910 through 1970.

With "Talk Like A Pirate Day" arriving soon, I thought I would assemble a quick gallery of some saucy and amazing pulp covers featuring pirates. Just click on the picture for a larger image.
