The Spider: The Complete Series, Volume 6 (Deluxe Edition)

$95.00

When Popular Publications launched in Fall 1933, they answered The Shadow with a darker, more ruthless avenger: the Spider. In this volume Norvell W. Page sustains a blistering run of four action‑packed novels that pit millionaire criminologist Richard Wentworth and his merciless alter ego against underworld horrors no other investigator dared face. Brutal, cinematic, and emotionally charged, these stories helped define Depression‑era pulp violence—and even thrilled a young Stan Lee.

Restored with illustrations and a new introduction by modern Spider novelist Will Murray, this deluxe collection is essential reading for fans of hard‑boiled vigilante fiction.
