Crooks Go Straight

I can't tell if I like this cover or not.  It has the ring prominent and it's well painted but, as Agent T points out, our hero is incapacitated.  Not what we want to see out of The Shadow.  I have read this one as it has been reprinted in the most recent run by Sanctum Press.  I enjoyed it well enough but can see why this review feels that it's just an okay tale of The Master of Men as it is rather pedestrian.  Check it out, though, as early stories are almost always worth the time.

Battle of Greed

Not my favorite cover but it does tell a bit of a story.  I would like to have seen the original painting to see the colors used.  I haven't read this one and, if it weren't recommended to me, I wouldn't look forward to it very much.  However, this review has "changed" my mind.  Give it a try agents and let me know what you think.
