First edition, 2012. Not a pulp reprint but a new novel of Secret Agent X by Stephen Payne. Presented in the double-column pulp format and even some vintage ads, it certainly has the flavor of a pulp. What is more important? Life—or lucre? Most of us would cast our vote in favor of life. But for one group of men, wealth possesses a far greater hold. Such a position becomes apparent when a New York publishing magnate dies in a horrible fit of madness. In response his surviving friends band together, vowing they would rather die than capitulate to his murderer. His name? The Fool. And Secret Agent X, man of a thousand faces, found that even he was not immune from the wiles of a madman. 6 1/2-in. x 9 1/2-in., 204 pages, black and white. Cover price $14.95.

First edition, 2014. Not a pulp reprint but a new adventure by Stephen Payne. Introduction by Tom Johnson. Lengthy afterword by Payne explaining how he wanted to write the origin story of the Secret Agent. What was the shocking connection between the Secret Agent and the white-robed crime king, the Resurrectionist? And why was this weird villain murdering men, only to raise them from the dead? True, he was out to enrich himself, since he plundered on a grand scale. But he was really out for power and control. Such dominion would he gain only after he had acquired that most closely guarded of secrets - the real identity of Secret Agent X. And the Man of a Thousand Faces realized that even he might finally have run out of time - and surprises. 6 1/2-in. x 9 1/2-in., 316 pages (almost an inch thick!), black and white. Cover price $14.95.
