THE SPIDER

Reviews of the exploits of Richard Wentworth. Not just another masked, two-gun vigilante of the 1930s, the Spider had emotional anguish and apocalyptic adventures under the writing of the inimitable Norvell W. Page.

"Then it was that Wentworth did a dangerous thing. From a cunning artifice, secretly contrived at the bottom of his cigarette lighter, he withdrew a tiny seal and pressed it upon the forehead of the dead man. There, close to the small hole, was clearly depicted, in rich vermillion, the tiny outline of an ugly spider - the mark of the mysterious killer who had shocked New York City at intervals throughout a number of years." - THE SPIDER STRIKES (1933)

NEW January 27, 2007 SERPENT OF DESTRUCTION (1934) Reviewed. Criminals flood New York City with cocaine. And what else is new?
