My fear...

I just hope that when these new stories come out they don't carry covers as uninspired as this.  Anyone who has stopped by this blog knows that the art is, for me, paramount.  Stay with the image that made The Shadow famous and don't rely on photos.  Some interior illustrations would be appreciated as well. 
I just don't have a good feeling about this.  Of course, we know nothing about the direction Conde Nast and Patterson are taking our hero and, hopefully, his agents.  I hope he stays rooted in the past as the lack of technology and mystique of far flung places and people create a canvas more interesting than another hero fighting familiar contemporary foes.
