 Welcome to my online archive of
The Cross Plainsman:
A Collection of Robert E. Howard Studies.
The Cross Plainsman is published every two months in its initial print publication as a Member Journal in the Official Mailing of REHupa: The Robert E. Howard United Press Association .
This web-available collection is associated with Mind's Eye HyperPublishing
and The Weird Criticism Initiative [the former is my name for the work I do in web and print publishing; the latter is as yet an embryonic concept, but essentially a planned consortium of scholars involved in the investigation of WEIRD TALES and related pulps and their contributing writers--dedicated to the investigation of popular imaginative literature and using both conventional/traditional and "weird"/innovative critical techniques].
