The Phantom Detective #56 Audiobook

Double-Stamped Doom

by Robert Wallace

Read by Milton Bagby

Forged in war, The Phantom Detective wages a one-man battle on crime! Solving impossible mysteries and delivering his own justice, he is the underworld’s masked nightmare!

Cloaked in impenetrable mystery, masked marauders strike — and leave a blood trail! The Phantom tackles one of the most difficult cases in his career.

Legendary for the fact that so many authors contributed to his legacy, The Phantom Detective’s stories have been described by some as inconsistent, shifting from one style of storytelling to another tale to tale. Although this obviously can be contributed to the ever-changing authors, it also bears to realize that this may have been somewhat intentional on the parts of the editors. Even though he was the second Pulp Hero to debut after The Shadow started the trend, it did indeed become commonplace for other Pulp publishers to follow with their own version of Hero Pulps. Many of these, such as Doc Savage and the Spider, settled into a routine, a basic story structure that, while readers returned issue after issue for some of the characters, never changed from the start to the ending of the series. This was the standard pattern for most Hero Pulps and likely a reason that many such magazines only lasted a handful of issues.

The Phantom Detective stories, however, brought in new writers after the twelfth issue, writers allowed to basically write in their own styles. Over its twenty-year run, the series saw The Phantom Detective take on street level crime and also tackle monstrous, seemingly supernatural evils. The fact that the magazine ran two decades shows that readers responded to the shifting tone of storytelling that was standard for the series, always returning never knowing if their hero would be facing a man with a gun…or a monster with a death ray!

‘Double-Stamped Doom’ was originally published in the October 1937 issue of The Phantom Detective Magazine and is read with pulse pounding intensity by award winning voice actor Milton Bagby.
