"Xitli, God of Fire"


 I have always thought this looked more like a Doc Savage cover than a The Shadow.  Of course the man in black is featured but the native assassin attacking just feels like Baumhofer and Dent.  Still, a fun cover that probably brought in a lot of business from the casual reader.

A simplified version of this story appeared in the same issue of Shadow Comics as Shiwan Khan about a year and a half later.  Must have been an adventure laden tale to translate to comics.
