The Black Bat’s Triumph

by G. Wayman Jones

Read by Milton Bagby

Out of the night comes a menacing winged figure! Blind district attorney Tony Quinn takes his battle for justice from the courtrooms to the streets, battling evil as The Black Bat!

When murders runs rife — and gruesome hunchback killers freeze a city’s life in terror — the Bat and his aides pierce crime’s hideous night to meet a deadly challenge!

As Pulp heroes go, The Black Bat walks a fine line between self-made vigilante and actual superhero. As an aggressive, ambitious District Attorney, Quinn angered many of those he prosecuted. One such gangster hated Quinn so much that he threw acid in the lawyer’s face, blinding Quinn and seemingly forever taking him out of the fight against crime. Thanks to a revolutionary surgery, however, Quinn regained his sight due to receiving the transplant of a dead policeman’s eyes. This not only gave him the ability to see again, but it also granted Quinn a power of sorts, the ability to see in the dark as if it were daylight.

After this extraordinary event, Quinn decided to construct a costume and secret identity that would strike terror into the hearts of criminals, choosing to become a vigilante while also still working as a Special Attorney as Quinn. This connects him more closely with characters like The Shadow and The Spider or even Doc Savage, men driven to take the law into their own capable hands. This is why many experts and fans consider Tony Quinn sort of the transition character between the concept of the Pulp Hero and the Superhero in prose fiction. Although costumed types had already shown up in both pulps and comic books, The Black Bat is perhaps the first in the Pulp Magazines to take the best of both worlds and blend them into one stunning character.

Thrill to The Black Bat’s Triumph, originally published in Black Book Detective #41 September 1940 and read with two fisted excitement by award winning voice actor Milton Bagby.
