The Shadow, "Death From The Deep" 6/12/38
The Shadow is a
fictional character created by Walter B. Gibson in 1931 with the first
story title "The Living Shadow". The character is one of the most
famous of the pulp heroes of the 1930s and 1940s -- made even more
famous through a popular radio series originally played by Orson
Welles. The Shadow is best regarded for its radio years, in which pulp
crime fiction received perhaps its most compelling broadcast
interpretation.
