The Thrilling Covers of Thrilling Wonder Stories


Thrilling Wonder Stories was a pulp magazine that was published from 1936 to 1955.  It was one of several pulp magazines that had the word “thrilling” in its title.  The stories were mostly science fiction and I guess they were meant to be more thrilling than all of the other science fiction that was being published at the same time.  The stories were apparently thrilling enough for the magazine to run for 19 years.

Below are a few of the covers of Thrilling Wonder Stories, done by some of the best artists of the pulp era.

The Aliens Are Here!


The Aliens are here!  They were spotted flying over California earlier tonight night and lighting up the sky.  The official story is that everyone was just seeing Trident missiles.  Watch the video below and judge for yourself.

I don’t know about you but it sure looks like aliens to me!  What might our new alien overlords be like?  Here’s how some others imagined this moment.
