If someone were to make an attempt at bringing back the "pulp mags" of the early 20th century, do you think you'd be interested in buying and/or submitting stories to them?
Pulp magazine were basically periodic anthologies and/or series on a specific genre, world, or character(super hero, detective, wizard, etc.) They were sold at magazine stands for 10cents each, the high quality ones (or "glossies") selling for 25cents. Entire works contained within 1 to 3 pulps were called "dime novels." The name came from the cheap, wood paper that they were printed on, pulp paper.
They were heavily influential in the development of comic book super heroes, but when they first came out they were pretty much the only widespread showcase for sci-fi, and the occasional fantasy short.
If something similar came back, do you think people would be interested in buying? Also, if anyone is truly passionate about this idea, would you possibly want to help me make it happen?
