Description:
The Master of Men blasts his way into Adventure once again in these two action packed tales of The Spider! First, The Spider squares off with The Corpse Broker (1939)! This terrifying tale reveals The Master of the Green Death! For A ten percent commission on murder, this Dealer in Evil guarantees immunity from police prosecution, and any officer that dares to challenge him, dies! With New York in the clutches of this deadly criminal mastermind, the Spider sets out to stop wholesale murder that turns the dead green! Next, The Spider marches against the Volunteer Corpse Brigade (1941)! Deadly plague-germs are used against the nation as Smiler Miordan issues the statement that 'Might is Right!' crushing all who oppose him. Himself affected by the virus, Richard Wentworth, alias the Spider, rallies a band of patriotic lepers to stem the tide of murder set in motion by the criminal Underworld Union! These two exciting pulp adventures have been beautifully reformatted for easy reading and feature both of the original full color covers as well as interior illustrations that accompany each story.
