Journey back to an Age of Aces! For Jed Garrett, "Captain Babyface" of the American Special Agent's Corps, his orders are simple: Kill Mr. Death! But who is Mr. Death? One of Germany's brightest chemists and inventors, he had grown weary of life and entered a monastery near Alsace-Lorraine. But war came and the monastery was bombed. Severely injured, German surgeons patched him back together, though he was left horribly disfigured. And now, sworn to vengeance against the Americans, he uses his evil genius for Germany in the "War to End All War." Author Steve Fisher is best known for his hardboiled work in Black Mask Magazine and in novels like "I Wake Up Screaming". In Popular Publications long-running aviation pulp Dare-Devil Aces, he created the ten titanic tales of Captain Babyface. For the first time, they are presented together in one volume. This is the first in a series from Age of Aces Books that will feature some of the greatest aviation pulp heroes of the 1930's.

Journey back to an Age of Aces! The Yanks and English know him as “The Red Falcon.” The French call him “L’ Faucon Rouge.” And the Germans curse him as “Verdamnt Der Rot Falker”. Meet Barry Rand. Unjustly wanted for a firing squad on his own side of the lines-facing death from the Germans on the other. He is a man abandoned by his country, but still willing to die for it! Along with his aide, the great African warrior Sika, The Red Falcon fights WWI on his own terms. Flying the blood-red crate they built themselves from parts of crashed planes, they are the deadliest pair on the Front. Before pilot and airplane demonstrator Robert J. Hogan created G-8 and His Battle Aces, he created The Red Falcon which ran for 5 years in Dare-Devil Aces before moving to G-8. Here is the premiere volume of his collected exploits. Stories in Volume 1: The Red Falcon, The Bat Squad, The Masked Drome, Hurricane Buzzard, Midnight Staffel, The Death Squadron, The Hooded Squadron, Dynamite Cargo (G8 crossover)

"If that isn't Chinese Brady I'll eat my boots!" Major Bill Abel and Colonel Rog Wharton recognized the new pilot immediately. His graying hair might be dyed black, but these two old war horses would never forget the man who had saved their lives in Shanghai during the 1900 Boxer rebellion. For Chinese Brady, war and excitement were like bread and butter. He was known far and wide as a fierce warrior, a soldier of the world. And after almost twenty years of scrapping in every war and revolution, in every corner of the globe, Brady was going to finally fight under his own flag, as a Captain in the WWI American air force. But rank didn't matter to him. After all, he had been a Prime Minister in Abyssinia, a General in China, a Major in Honduras, a Chief of Staff in Mexico, and a buck private in Guatemala. What did matter was that he could now bring his savage skills to bear against Germany, to save Europe from the Kaiser and all his evil minions! The tales of Chinese Brady were written by C. M. Miller. They appeared in Popular Publications' Battle Birds and Dare-Devil Aces from 1933 through 1940, thirteen of them in all. And Age of Aces is bringing them to you, collected for the first time in one volume.

Chinese Brady: The Complete Adventures

Miller, C. M.

THEY SAID IT COULDN'T HAPPEN HERE. THEN THEY SAID ONE MAN COULDN'T STOP IT! Richard Wentworth spent his vigilante career as The Spider always in the shadows. Now evil acted in broad daylight. The Party of Justice swept into office, rewriting the laws of New York state overnight to benefit their criminal backers and make slaves of its people. This American Reichstag gave itself sweeping powers and raised a private army to exert its malevolent will. How could The Spider hope to stop a criminal conspiracy as big as the state itself? This time The Master of Men would go beyond taking the lives of evildoers... by bringing Hope to the tyrannized citizens of the Empire State! The "Black Police Trilogy" is author Norvell Page's classic pulp fiction Nazi allegory from 1938. Originally published in three consecutive months of The Spider Magazine, the novels "The City That Paid To Die", "The Spider at Bay", and "Scourge of the Black Legions" are collected in book form for the first time!

Journey back to an Age of Aces, when robots, dwarfs and death rays were no match for the Squadron of Forgotten Men.  Dick Traine, Monte Prince and the rest of this “Vanished Legion” of living ghosts were on call for only the strangest and most perilous missions of the war. Officially listed as “Killed in Action,” their continued existence was unknown to all but a few of the High Command. Operating out of a secret base in the Vosges Mountains, there would be no reprieve—only death would free them from their unkind fate!  The seven tales of “The Vanished Legion” originally appeared in Dare-Devil Aces magazine in the early Thirties and were penned by Donald E. Keyhoe. A former U.S. Marine pilot, Keyhoe was a prolific contributor to the pulp magazines. Even though he blazed a path for G-8 with his Philip Strange stories in Flying Aces, he is perhaps best remembered for his UFO research in the Fifties and Sixties.

The Adventures of the Three Mosquitoes: The Thunderbolt Ace

Oppenheim, Ralph

Welcome to a Strange War! In Donald E. Keyhoe’s imaginings, the stormy skies of World War I are filled with giant pterodactyls, mystic fireballs and demon aces. But America has it’s own unnatural secret weapon: Captain Philip Strange. A mental marvel from birth, he was so terrifyingly effective that the Allies referred to him as “The Phantom Ace of G-2.” But to the Germans he was “The Brain-Devil,” whose penetrating green eyes were both a legend and a nightmare. Keyhoe’s Philip Strange stories ran for nine years—from 1931 through 1939—in the pages of Flying Aces magazine. This first volume in our new series contains six exciting tales of terror skies! It also features an introduction by Sid Bradd and is beautifully wrapped up in an exciting new design by Chris Kalb!

Captain Philip Strange: Strange War

They were STRANGE ENEMIES! Once they were just two young lovers, pledging their devotion in a Mecklenberg garden. Now they are reluctant rivals enmeshed in the biggest conflict the world has ever seen. While the Great War had forged him into the so-called Brain-Devil, America’s top agent, she had become the famous Fraulein Doktor, Germany’s most alluring and elusive spy. When love and loyalty collide in eight epic tales of WWI aviation and intrigue, the bullets—and the sparks—are going to fly.

Captain Philip Strange: Strange Enemies

Once again join us on a journey back to an "Age of Aces" as "Battling" Mord Grogan burns through the tortured skies of pre-WWII China. Grogan, an American pilot, commands the all-Chinese “Dragon Squadron” in their battle against the invading Japanese along with his three valiant flight commanders: Monty St. John, the lanky Limey; slender Hank Goyen, the dapper Frog; and last but not least, the imperturbable Ah Im, Grogan’s boyhood chum of old Nanking days, now premier olive-toned ace of the Dragon clan. Never before has the struggle been so fierce or the danger of Oriental treachery so great! WWI pilot Robert M. Burtt wrote the fourteen Battling Grogan stories in the early 1930’s for Flying Aces Magazine before becoming well known as the co-creator and writer of aviation-themed radio serials like The Air Adventures of Jimmy Allen, Captain Midnight, Hop Harrigan and Sky King.
