In 1975, Spanish comic book artist Joan Boix, after many years working for other art studios like Bardon Art and Creaciones Editoriales on Romance Comics, took a leap forward and began creating his own horror and suspense stories for DOSSIER NEGRO, TERROR GRAFICO, and PANIC. Leveraging his graphic intensity, artistic maturity and independence, Boix created originals and adaptions of classic horror gaining a reputation as a "master of the brush and pen." Boix's horror work gained momentum and began appearing in some of the famous magazines published by Josep Toutain including CREEPY, RAMBLA, and METROPOL. Pulp 2.0 is proud to collect and publish these seminal works of horror and suspense in English for the first time, and introduce Joan Boix to a wider audience who may have seen his work elsewhere, but didn't know the pulpy genius behind it. Within these pages are the lurid tales that led to the creation of Boix's internationally renowned, award-winning dramatic series ROBNY THE VAGABOND, JONATHAN STRUPPY, and his comic work with Swedish publisher Semic on THE PHANTOM. Included in this volume are adaptations and interpretations of works by Edgar Allan Poe, H. P. Lovecraft, Franz Kafka, and Robert Bloch - each one a visual feast for horror comics fans.

Castle, The Story of a Kentucky Prison chronicles the history of the Kentucky State Penitentiary at Eddyville, beginning with its construction over 100 years ago. It tells of murders, escapes, riots and executions which have occurred in the medieval-like fortress, sitting high above the Cumberland River in Lyon County. The centerpiece of the book is the daring Tex Walters shoot-out of 1923 when inmate Walters and two confederates shot and killed three prison guards, wounded a fourth, and barricaded themselves in the dining hall for four days. The National Guard was called in and the siege garnered nationwide attention as the suspenseful stand-off unfolded. Lillian Walters, wife of the rebel convict, was then tried in a dramatic court room battle for her gun-smuggling role in the uprising.
