Cover: G-8 and His Battle Aces, February 1936 (1936) • by Frederick Blakeslee
Notes:
- Reprints in facsimile the lead novel and the non-genre air-war short story "The Dumb Demon" from the February 1936 issue of the pulp magazine. Both are written by Robert J. Hogan, the novel is listed as “by G-8 as told to Robert J. Hogan”.
- Features continuing villain, the mad scientist Herr Doktor Krueger.
- No ads from the original pulp are reprinted.
- “Note to the Readers” is a one-page article dealing with the creation of the G-8 pulp (from the editor?).
- All G-8 reprints in this format by Adventure House are reprinted in their original order of publication.
- Unnumbered pages are advertisements and blank pages.
- Volume 8, Number 1.
- All illustrations, including that of the non-genre story, are by John Fleming Gould.
- Contains many spot illustrations and character portraits that are either filler and drift from one issue to another, or are cropped from the larger full-page illustrations.
- The front cover of the facsimile has been restored and slightly altered from the original.
- ”G-8 Speaks” is the letter column for the original pulp magazine. I always started off with a long essay by G-8 (Robert J. Hogan) and was usually followed by letters from the readers.
- The original G-8 and His Battle Aces magazine was published by Popular Publications, now Argosy Communications.
- The original editor of the pulp is uncredited. This edited version of the pulp is presumably edited by John Gunnison, the publisher of Adventure House.
- The original pulp cost $0.15, this facsimile costs $10.95 in Canada.
