Originally posted by Sock Monkey View PostNice adds! It looks like the edition of Lights Out from Thunderstorm is from their Hard Rain line, which was a budget alternative to the Black Voltage line. I believe they did do a Black Voltage edition, though I don't know readily available it is on the secondary market.
Keeping on the Nate Southard topic, Sinister Grin is going to be releasing a limited edition of Scavengers this year. I've never picked up a book from them before. Anybody have any feedback as to their quality?
I didn't know Thunderstorm did two editions. Their website only lists one, but then their website isn't very helpful for their old editions. I think I'll keep an eye out for the more deluxe edition later on. The "budget" version will do for now.
I have Scavengers on pre-order at Camelot. I'm definitely curious about the quality of the book. There isn't much in the way of details about what exactly I ordered. I know it'll be a signed hardcover, but that leaves a lot to the imagination. Sinister Grin also did a signed hardcover of Southard's Slab City Event, which I want to get as well. I guess that will depend on how Scavengers turns out.

As far as Scavengers and Sinister Grin titles in general, they make pretty nice books, equivalent to what CD publishes at similar price points, though they do tend to be somewhat smaller physically.

Thanks for the Sinister Grin feedback, Slayn. I just might have to join Plasticine in a preorder for Scavengers.
In regards to the Hard Rain editions, the books that were made in both Black Voltage and Hard Rain are listed under the Black Voltage section in Thunderstorm ' s gallery page. If you click on the title, it's page will list both books with their respective print runs and price points. I agree that their site can be confusing in regards to the different versions of books they've produced. I think Dead of Night by William Ollie was produced in four different versions, but the site only lists one. I only stumbled on the above info as I cruised their site.
As far as the Hard Rain books themselves, I haven't seen one except in pictures, but I did see a full set on Thunderstorm ' s Facebook page and they are look pretty cool as a set. More uniform spines than the Black Voltage versions.
Plasticine, since you're a Southard fan, Thunderstorm also did a limited of Pale Horses, which is pretty nice and supposed to be a great read.Last edited by Sock Monkey; 04-29-2015, 04:37 AM.

The Thunderstorm page is different. For some reason when I last checked it out, I just got larger images of the book covers when I clicked on them. Right now, it's actually quite useful for most of the books. It looks like there's still quite a few that have no additional details at all. For instance, I'd love to know more about the lettered edition of Bryan Smith's Rock and Roll Reform School Zombies. I can't find anything about that book anywhere.
Thanks, slayn666 for the Sinister Grin feedback. It's nice to hear something positive about their hardcovers. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing how Scavengers turns out.
Sock Monkey, I'm definitely in the market for the Thunderstorm edition of Pale Horses. I found a copy that's still reasonably priced. Hopefully it sticks around for a couple of weeks. I unfortunately don't have the funds to snag it right now. Never enough money with this hobby.

My thrift store haul today. The poster is AWSOME! $15.00 form Goodwill. the books are just reading copies, except the Cornwell Post-Mortem, which is a fair copy, signed 1st edition. I'm popping that up on ebay. Nice trip, all and all. i really love the poster.
