Five Keys to Crime

I like the rendering of this cover but it's just not a "The Shadow" cover! What was wrong with those idiots in the later years who felt that there was no need to give our hero the just due he deserved. Years of ruling the market and legions of fans I guess didn't warrant the honor of having The Shadow grace the cover of his own magazine. And what's with that lame masthead?! I believe I've ranted about this in the past but it seemed that after years of battling gangsters and super villains the only way to eliminate The Shadow was from the inside. It's sad to see, even in retrospect. You can get an idea of the story here.
