Weird Menace Adventure Tales

Weird Menace Adventure Tales
By Tony Arnold
Somewhere between the Roswell crash and your grandmother's suspicion that the government isn't telling you everything, there's a samovar-shaped spacecraft drifting low over the Florida swamps — and it's about to change everything.
Weird Menace Adventure Tales collects the pulp-soaked, genre-defying chronicles of WM — Galactic Representative to Earth, High Adjudicator of the Galactic Temple of Scientonomy, insectoid huckster, would-be messiah, and reluctant witness to seven decades of humanity at its strangest. From a hardboiled Gold Medal crime writer who stumbles onto the truth behind the skunk ape legend, to a wrestling league built from hybrid DNA and desperate dignity, to a Pacific island cargo cult that mistakes platform shoes for prophecy — this anthology drags cosmic horror, cryptozoology, con-artist theology, and lucha libre into the same sweat-stained tent and dares you to look away.
Expect: flying saucers shaped like teapots. A wrestling federation staffed by cryptid champions fighting for personhood in the squared circle. A Temple board meeting that goes sideways over beanie weenies and a winery with an unfortunate name. Space-Busters, skunk ape liberation, and a laserrang that's never once hit what it was aimed at.
It's Weird Tales with a Florida driver's license and a grudge. It's the Nephilim, if the Nephilim had agents. It's proof that the line between religious con and cosmic truth is thinner — and funnier, and sadder — than anybody wants to admit.
Grab your copy. WM insists.
