The Amazing Bulk Novelization & Return of the Amazing Bulk Reprint Now Available for Pre-Order!

 


My novelization of The Amazing Bulk, plus the brand new edition of the sequel, The Return of the Amazing Bulk, are available for pre-order on the Encyclopocalypse Publications website! Order them today in trade paperback, mass market paperback, or ebook!

Encyclopocalypse's blurb for The Amazing Bulk:

"Henry 'Hank' Howard had a plan: finish his groundbreaking serum, impress his demanding future father-in-law, and propose to the love of his life. But when a late-night mugging leaves him rattled — and the experiment finally turns purple — Hank makes a desperate choice that changes everything.

Now, when he loses his temper, Hank transforms into something else: huge, unstoppable… and bright purple.

As the military tightens its grip, and madman Dr. Kantlove unleashes missile-fueled chaos from a desert stronghold, Hank becomes the center of a global crisis — caught between his monstrous alter ego, a government with no loyalty, and a romance that might not survive the fallout.

A darkly comedic take on superhero tropes and monster movies, The Amazing Bulk blends tragic escalation with cartoon logic, B-movie bravado, and just enough heart to break a little. Adapted from the infamous cult film, this novelization turns absurdity into epic — one purple rampage at a time."

For Return of the Amazing Bulk:

"Young scientist Hank Howard has a dark secret...when he loses control of his emotions, he becomes the enormous, unstoppable Amazing Bulk! Hank views the purple monstrosity as a curse, a hindrance to his happiness with Hannah, his bride-to-be. Having survived his battle with the insidious Dr. Kantlove, he seeks to rid himself of his gargantuan alter ego. But when the sinister Pam Demic and her army of minions threaten the world, Hank must decide his destiny...before the world coughs itself to death! 

This exciting superhero novel continues the tale of 2012’s action-packed hit, The Amazing Bulk, from director Lewis Schoenbrun and writers Keith Schaffner and Jeremiah Campbell."

Many thanks to Encyclopocalypse for the fabulous new reprint of Return, to say nothing of the awesome chance to adapt the original film. I hope you all enjoy!

Hunters of Angkor - A Star Wars Supernatural Encounter!

I have a very exciting announcement to make - my Star Wars story "Hunters of Angkor" is now available to read on the Star Wars Timeline site! "Hunters" is part of an initiative to expand on Joe Bongiorno's cosmic horror epic Supernatural Encounters: The Trial and Transformation of Arhul Hextrophon. I can't recommend Joe's book enough, and there's a lot of other awesome Expanded Supernatural Encounters tales available as well!

Set two years before A New Hope, "Hunters of Angkor" follows an ambitious Mandalorian bounty hunter in pursuit of a legendary darksider. However, when her target attempts to flee not only through space, but time as well, accessing the fabled World Between Worlds, she has no choice but to pursue her prey into the age of myth and legends. Finding herself in the final years of the War of Temporal Planes, the young hunter is forced to question everything: who is her target really? Has she stumbled onto something even worse than him? And does she have any hope of ever returning home? 

Fans of Pluto may like this story. ;) And there's some Pride Month rep too!

I had a great time writing this and I want to offer my deep gratitude to the SE creators and fandom for all their kindness and support, with special thanks to Corey Carter and Joe Bongiorno! Hope y'all enjoy.

Surprise ebook novelette time! I'm releasing my story Patrona and I hope y'all enjoy! Check it out here on Lulu: https://www.lulu.com/shop/atom-mudman-bezecny/patrona/ebook/product-jeyjr24.html

"Beyond the limits of known spacetime lies the Great Infinidad, a web-like collection of pathways through the dimensions. Wandering this outer land, practicing the art of Correction, is the eutemporal traveler known only as Liar. She is the last of her race, the sole survivor of a cosmic genocide. When abtemporal forces induce a Mal-Function on a puny, backwater planet called 'Earth,' only Liar can save the day - but will anyone trust her?"

35 pages of sci-fi / horror for what might be considered in some contexts to be the price of a coffee. Happy reading!
