Did you ever watch those old movies and wonder who the villains got to build those undersea bases, volcano lairs, attack zeppelins and tanks that can turn into a submarine at the flick of a switch?
Well, does Greg Hatcher have an answer for you! And it's a doozy!
Greg Hatcher's Dr.Fix-It mixes equal parts James Bond superspy action, Adam West-era Batman, with a sprinkling here and there of everything from Silver Age comic books and Paperback science fiction all from a fresh new perspective.
This collection features the first three Dr.Fix-it Adventures as well as a fourth, uncompleted story finished by fellow new-pulp author Fred Adams, jr.
These are stories written with a lively imagination and sense of joy and wonderment. This is tempered with a healthy does of crusty cynicism beneath which beats and warm and comforting heart.
This is glorious fun, and it's criminal that we won't see more like it.

Fantastic stories. I love the authors brief notes after each one, as well.
