Overview of his films/bio by Bill Krohn. More info here at amazon. It was $3.97 on one of the online bookstores over here so I figured I'd check it out. Seen a few of his films so I'm planning to read it and check him out more thoroughly.

That's awesome. I'm actually working on an homage film to him for class this semester. He's so great, and a total creative maniac. I'll have to think about ordering that book.

Love these old Mentor science paperbacks. This cover would have felt right at home on the cover of an old Astounding.

Couple of freebies I picked up at the library. No, I don't mean I stole them, but there're a bunch of bookcases downstairs with free books, either library discards or books people drop off. They were in pretty good shape and even though I don't have room for them I couldn't resist.
