PulpFest is named for pulp magazines — fiction periodicals named after the cheap pulp paper on which they were printed. Over the years, these magazines have inspired writers, artists, film directors, game designers, and other creators in many ways. PulpFest 2020 will salute the centennial of author Ray Bradbury’s birth; the 100th anniversary of BLACK MASK — the pulp where the tough private eye began; and the 120th anniversary of the birth of WEIRD TALES artist Margaret Brundage. The convention will also have 1000s of books & magazines for sale in its dealers' room.
