The Black Bat #39 Audiobook
The Crime To Come
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 Willie Wilkerson asks for a room and bath at a little hotel in New York, he unknowingly checks in for a grim murder mystery which calls for Tony Quinn’s keen sleuthing talents! The Black Bat dares danger and death as he battles to smash a diabolical and sinister conspiracy!
 
Norman Daniels, writing as G. Wayman Jones, understood the audience which he wrote The Black Bat for very well. Hungry for escapism from their daily lives, he gave them a character that stages his crimefighting in over-the-top fashion, from his black bat like costume to his often full out assault on criminals of all kinds. He also created a character which, even though Quinn was a costume wearing attorney with lots of money, the common man could identify with, if for no other reason than The Black Bat pursuing street level criminals whose exploits filled daily headlines. Even with that, however, some of the foes that The Black Bat encountered bordered on being potential super-villains.
 
In at least two instances, Tony Quinn encountered foes who had uncanny abilities to predict victims to murders that had not as of yet happened. With the world being on the verge of and then in the midst of full-on war, he also swapped bullets with saboteurs with massive plans to cripple the United States. True evil also confronted The Black Bat more than once, including an enemy who took over a hospital and used it for vile experiments, on hopeless victims and even his own men. And, in one instance, Lucifer himself seemed to take on Tony Quinn, practicing devilish crimes. As always, though, The Black Bat uncovered the man behind the ruse and brought crime to its knees, as he always did.
 
Thrill to The Crime To Come, originally published in Black Book Detective #72 February 1947 and read with two fisted excitement by award winning voice actor Milton Bagby.
