The Black Falcon
What a nice cover. The partially covered face with the title cleverly inserted into the newspaper. The black feather, the calling card of that evil fiend the Black Falcon, piercing the cover behind our hero and, of course, the ring. Not a classic cover but definitely a very nice and memorable one. This is the last mention of The Shadow's "horror face". Apparently, according to this review, this is what pulls this tale above the average story. But don't take my word for it, check out the story in issue 5 of Anthony Tollin's reprint series. I did.
