Of course, no one thought The Shadow could be brought low by the likes of The Clown's henchmen.

Avenger Saturday presents: "The Happy Killers"
Could almost mistake this for one of the Old West pulp covers. The only thing I think is great about this cover is how they broke the logo with the gun and splintered door. Otherwise... meh.

Ah, yes... Burbank. The version that M W Kaluta popularized in the first DC comics run.

Professional, indeed. They just took the painting and left a frame with no visible wires to hang from.

Avenger Saturday presents: "The Green Killer"
A pretty action packed cover to start 1942. However, when they took away his grey skin and white hair it's pretty difficult to tell which of these is The Avenger. That unique aspect of the character made him instantly identifiable like Doc Savage and his bronze skin (more so with the Bama covers but still) and, of course, The Shadow. Whether it was the nose or the black costume there was no mistaking the Master of Men.

Another episode that centers around my favorite subject... art. Of course there is murder to involve The Shadow so don't think that it's a snooze. Sit back and enjoy this adventure from a little over 80 years ago. Take note that a familiar detective makes a somewhat rare appearance in the radio series.

"This is a job for... The Shadow?" I bet Superman is a bit miffed that his line has been taken.

Avenger Saturday presents: "Pictures of Death"
This is a pretty boring cover. I'm not sure why Street & Smith and their Art Director would abandon the wonderful cover design that they ran with the first 12. Even with just a ghostly head in the sky would have made this a far better cover. Hmmm, I may just do that...
And I did just that...
