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.

 Okay, let's give a little love for that other pulp icon, Clark "Doc" Savage, Jr.  This is the short series that aired in 1985 and starred Robert Towers as Doc.  It is nowhere as good as The Shadow series but I thought y'all might care for a change of pace.  If you are of a mind to spend 24 minutes of your time, take a listen to episode one in the serial Fear Cay titled "Kidnapped".
