Reading Room THE SHADOW "The Shadow vs The Shadow"

When Last We Left The Shadow...

I'm going to let writer Jerry Siegel fill you in on what's going on...with the minor point he leaves out that Lamont Cranston is presently a prisoner of the villainous descendants of Genghis Khan and Attila the Hun...

And the baddies get away...again!

THURSDAY...

CRIME AND PUNISHMENT

for a never-reprinted tale of the cloaked 1940s pulp/radio Shadow created in the 1970s!

Then, return here on MONDAY as our campy cloaked crusader takes on another weird foe...and, of course, Shiwan Khan!

(Doesn't Khan have anybody else he can bug for an issue or two?)

Reading Room THE SHADOW "Captive of Terror Island!"

We Have Just Witnessed...

To give him his due, writer Jerry Siegel does synopize extremely well!

So, now that you're caught up, let's continue...

Yukal Torrg seems to be "inspired" by Cato, Inspector Jacques Clouseau's servant in the Pink Panther films, who was also instructed to attack him when he was least-expecting it.

(Though he didn't hate Clouseau.
It was just part of his job, which he performed with extreme enthusiasm.)

Reading Room THE SHADOW "Incredible Alliance of Shiwan Khan and Attila the Hunter!"

The Shadow's greatest arch-enemy (he does have several) is...

...the direct descendant of the legendary Genghis Khan.

So what happens when another legendary conquerer's offspring...with his own world-ruling desires...teams-up with Khan?

"Who else would have a room like that?"

Offhand, there's a professor running a school for "gifted students" just north of NYC...

Reading Room THE SHADOW "Doom Stalks The Shadow!"

When Last We Saw He Who Knows What Evil...

...well, writer Jerry (Superman) Siegel will explain the plot from the never-reprinted Archie's The Shadow #5 (1965) better than I could...

For a guy who constantly ominously-intones "The Weed of Crime Bears Bitter Fruit! Crimes Does Not Pay!", it seems like a lot of his enemies tend to get away with it, or at least get away!

Speaking of getaways...

Get away to...

Crime and Punishment

...tomorrow for another never-reprinted Shadow tale, this time set in the 1940s!
