The Sunday Comics: The Shadow "The Diabolical Dr. Demon!" page 4 - 6

 

Saturday's random pulp cover: The Black Mask : "One Hour"_April 1, 1924

 

I found this bit of fun information on  

Up and Down These Mean Streets: The Official Website of Don Herron

"Perhaps the most interesting thing about this story is the editor’s notice that appears at the end of the story:

“The paintings from which the cover of any issue of The Black Mask is made will be sold to the highest bidder. Bids of less than $10.00 will, however, be rejected. All bids for covers prior to this time must be received by May 31^st; and all bids for covers published hereafter must be received within 30 days after the date of issue (i.e., bids for May cover by June 1^st, etc.). No printing of any kind appears on these original paintings; they make ideal pictures for your den or living room.” "

Ep_08_Stand In For Death

Midnight in Moscow #3 page 6

 

'Benedict Stark, a.k.a. The Prince of Evil.  Suddenly an inch shorter than his concubine.'

Midnight in Moscow #3 page 5

 

"Is this going anywhere interesting?"

Midnight in Moscow #3 page 4

 

"As I've frequently heard you say, 'Commit a crime, and the world is made of glass.' "

Midnight in Moscow #3 pages 2 & 3

 

"...you'd've been a puddle of flesh, blood and bone from your first foray into the dark."

'Getting There Is Half The Fun!'

Saturday's random pulp cover: The Phantom Detective : "Murder's Agent"_Summer 1953

 The final issue of the long running pulp.  Very uninspired cover to end this series on.  But that seems to happen to most of these titles, once they are of no use the effort just isn't put into the product.  A shame.

 Issue 4.  Tune in each week... if you dare.

Saturday's random pulp cover: Doc Savage "Repel": October, 1937

 Ah, Doc Savage at his scientific best.  The lack of gloves really makes me wonder how well that suit of his seals up, though.  Still, this cover foretells a smashing good adventure.

 Ep_06_The Man Who Talked With Death

Midnight in Moscow #2 page 16

 

"...men and women from all walks of life..."

Midnight in Moscow #2 page 15

 

"The answer, Mr. Grant, is an unqualified yes."

Midnight in Moscow #2 page 14

 

"... The Shadow has been an integral part in what's made this city a sager place to live decades."

Midnight in Moscow #2 page 13

 

"I'm such a fool."

 

Midnight in Moscow #2 page 12

 

"So this is our severance package, Chief?"

 And so ends issue 3 of the rightfully derided The Shadow by Archie Comics.
