This ALL-ESPIONAGE issue of MEN’S ADVENTURE QUARTERLY celebrates spy stories from vintage men’s adventure magazines. These behind-enemy-lines, nail-biting spy thrillers, and articles are brilliantly written by Walter Kaylin, Don Honig, Robert F. Dorr, and many others. Illustrated by renowned artists such as Mort Künstler, Vic Prezio, and Walter Popp. The MAQ Cover Gallery features some of the wildest in espionage illustration, and the MAQ Gal-lery features the ladies who could become “Jane Bond.” More than “swinging spy-fi” this issue of the MAQ is a mission back into the dirty dealings and desperate acts of agents of the Cold War Intelligence services who used any means necessary to succeed. MEN’S ADVENTURE QUARTERLY is an acknowledged leader in republishing men’s adventure fiction for new readers. Here’s what critics had to say about the MAQ: “With this beautiful 156 pg. treasure, Deis and Cunningham have given us a magnificent sampling of what MAMS were about. From the reproductions of glorious covers and interior illustrations to the reprinting of both factual articles and action-packed fiction, this collection is a rollicking trip back in time… Thanks Mr. Cunningham and Mr. Deis, we owe you both big time.” — Author and Publisher, Ron Fortier Airship 27“The artwork in this magazine is absolutely first-rate, and brilliantly laid out and reproduced… The book is worth the price for the art alone, and if you are a fan of American “pulp art”, or a newcomer looking for a good introduction to this uniquely American art form, with a focus on the western, I highly recommend the MEN’S ADVENTURE QUARTERLY.” — Author Dan Leo “Robert Deis, Bill “Mad Pulp Bastard” Cunningham, and their associates have put together a spectacular recreation of a unique genre and a special time. From the moment I cracked it open, I could almost smell the Brylcream and Barbasol. Can’t wait for the Q2 issue to be available. This is well worth your time and money. – Jim Henshaw, Screenwriter / Producer, BEASTMASTER, THE LOST WORLD, TOP COPS
