Scanned and cleaned to the best standard possible -see The Phantom Raider, Ace Hart, Secrets Of The Super Sargasso Sea, Phantom Maid, Electrogirl, Skybolt Kid, Wonder Boy, Dene Vernon, Professor Atom and many, many others!

Its fun and action all the way -The British Golden Age shines through!

The Man Who Laughs At Scotland Yard: The Red Spider!!

  Our sister site -UK Golden Age Heroes (blog list to right) has had The Chuckling Prowler posted to it....no, that is a character!

Anyway, I thought what we needed here is a glimpse of a very long lost Platinum Age villain...The Red Spider!!! From Adventure 454 published 12th July, 1930

The Outlaw Sheriff

 From D C Thmsons Adventure no. 1346  4th November, 1950.  There is absolutely no information online or anywhere else about this character so even artist is "anon"

or is it?

Looking at the style and there is almost the look of Dudley Watkins in the art. It might bhe possible since he did a lot for Thomson and thee were short one pagers.

Another interesting fact is that in the 1985 edition of Denis Gifford's The Complete Catalogue of British Comics... Thomson's Adventure is not mention but a dozen other "adventures" are!

Superman from TRIUMPH #811 4th May 1940
