The White Column

Yikes!  That blowtorch looks like it's gonna cause permanent damage.  Oh, wait, maybe the bullet coming towards The Shadow's head will ease the pain.  At least he takes one of the hooded cowards with him.  Okay, we all know that our hero will come out of this seemingly impossible situation and live to fight another day.  However, since this is a Tinsley novel I'm sure he does not get out of this unscathed.  I haven't read this one so I can't speak to the damage inflicted but Mr. Olsen seems to like this tale a lot.  I look forward to this one, that's for sure.
