Saturday's random pulp cover: Adventure: February, 1937

 Zorro?  The Lone Ranger?  Just who is that masked man?!  This is a nicely rendered, if less than exciting, cover by Hubert Rogers.  Feels very Saturday Matinee-ish.  (Which, in my opinion, is very cool.)

ON THE AIR: December 23, 1985

 

Episode six: The Deadly Treasure

 

And so ends the short-lived revival of Doc Savage's adventures on radio.  I have been unable to find Doc's earlier adventures on-line so I guess we're left with this small sampling of his tales.  I hope you enjoyed a return to the theatre of the mind featuring Clark Savage Jr. and the Fabulous Five.

"I am mankind's savior!"

 

(Let those megalomaniacal words sink in.  Resonate.  They've been repeated in various ways throughout history.  Perhaps history is truly just a loop that plays the same moronic scenes over and over again, just replacing the actors.)

"Time has run amuck!"

 

(As an aside, I thought that the word 'amuck' was incorrectly applied.  A quick search on the interweb let me know that, up until the mid 20th century, 'amuck' was regularly used before 'amok' became the preferred term.  Although this story was written in the 21st century, the tale takes place in the 1930s.  This seems an appropriate use and I applaud Mr. Uslan for staying true to the times.)
