G-8 AND HIS BATTLE ACES

G-8 AND HIS BATTLE ACES
   US PULP MAGAZINE. 110 issues Oct 1933-June 1944. Monthly to Apr 1941, bimonthly thereafter. Published by Popular Publications; ed Rogers Terrill and, later, Alden H. Norton (1903-1987). All the novels were the work of one of the most prolific of all pulp authors, Robert J. Hogan (1897-1963), who also wrote under pseudonyms the short stories which filled out each issue. Hogan, who wrote The MYSTERIOUS WU FANG and other magazines as well, was under editorial instruction to send in his material as he wrote it, without any revision; the amount of editing subsequently necessary is described by Damon KNIGHT in Hell's Cartographers (anth 1975), ed Brian W. ALDISS and Harry HARRISON. G-8 is the leader of a US fighter squadron inWWI, which combats a wide variety of fantastic enemy menaces. Only some of the novels were sf, and the magazine was not as futuristic as its companion, DUSTY AYRES AND HIS BATTLE BIRDS.
