<p>Long before superheroes, there was… The Crystal Man. A tale of a vanishing body and visible consequences. He was H.G. Wells before Wells. The Crystal Man by Edward Page Mitchell. That’s next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast.</p><br><p>Today we introduce you to an author that some refer to as “the lost giant of American science fiction.” Perfect for The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast don’t ya think? He wrote about an invisible man, the story you are about to hear, before H.G. Wells The Invisible Man, wrote about a time-travel machine The Clock that Went Backward before Wells's The Time Machine and more.</p><br><p>Why was he referred to as lost? Well, Edward Page Mitchell who was born in Maine in 1852 was an editorial and short story writer for The Sun, a daily newspaper in New York City. His stories appeared in the newspaper without a byline. So his work went mostly forgotten until a lot of investigative work by science fiction historian and fellow author Sam Moskowitz in the 1970s unearthed these groundbreaking stories.</p><br><p>Originally published in The Sun on Sunday January 30th, 1881, The Crystal Man by Edward Page Mitchell…</p><br><p>Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, They worshiped him as a god, this man condemned to death on that lonely world, Master Of The Asteroid By Clark Ashton Smith.</p><br><p>☕ Buy Me a Coffee <a href="https://www.buymeacoffee.com/scottsV" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.buymeacoffee.com/scottsV</a></p><p>===========================</p><p>🎧 Join Our Newsletter - Get Free Audiobooks <a href="http://lostscifi.com/free/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://lostscifi.com/free/</a></p><p>Facebook - <a href="https://www.facebook.com/TheLostSciFiPodcast" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/TheLostSciFiPodcast</a></p><p>Twitter - <a href="https://x.com/LostSciFiPod" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://x.com/LostSciFiPod</a></p><p>Instagram - <a href="https://www.instagram.com/lostscifiguy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/lostscifiguy</a></p><p>Threads - <a href="https://www.threads.net/@scottscifiguy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.threads.net/@scottscifiguy</a></p><p>Bluesky - <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/lostscifipodcast.bsky.social" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://bsky.app/profile/lostscifipodcast.bsky.social</a></p><p>=========================== </p><br><p>❤️ ❤️ Thanks to All Our Listeners Who Bought Us a Coffee</p><p>$200 Someone</p><p>$100 Tony from the Future</p><p>$75 James Van Maanenberg</p><p>$50 Anonymous Listener</p><p>$25 Someone, Eaten by a Grue, Jeff Lussenden, Fred Sieber, Anne, Craig Hamilton, Dave Wiseman, Bromite Thrip, Marwin de Haan, Future Space Engineer, Fressie, Kevin Eckert, Stephen Kagan, James Van Maanenberg, Irma Stolfo, Josh Jennings, Leber8tr, Conrad Chaffee, Anonymous Listener</p><p>$15 Every Month Someone</p><p>$15 Someone, Carolyn Guthleben, Patrick McLendon, Curious Jon, Buz C., Fressie, Anonymous Listener</p><p>$10 Anonymous Listener</p><p>$5 Denis Kalinin, Timothy Buckley, Andre'a, Martin Brown, Ron McFarlan, Tif Love, Chrystene, Richard Hoffman, Anonymous Listener</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
