DOC SAVAGE #93 - Tunnel Terror by KENNETH ROBESON - 1st Ed. BANTAM

Doc Savage stories, 213 in total, first appeared in Conde Nast'sDoc Savage Magazine pulps. The original series has sold over 20 million copies in paperback form. The first entry was The Man of Bronze, in March, 1933 from the house name "Kenneth Robeson". John L. Nanovic was editor for 10 years, and planned and approved all story outlines. The early stories were pure pulp "supersagas," as dubbed by Philip Jose Farmer, with rampaging dinosaurs and lost races, secret societies led by dastardly villains, fantastic gadgets and weapons, autogyros and zepplins, death-dealing traps and hair-raising escapes, and plots to rule the earth. In the first few stories, Doc and his aides killed enemies without compunction. An editorial decision made them kill only when necessary for a more adventurous kid-friendly magazine, unlike the bloodthirsty competitor The Shadow.

A weird mist envelops men working on the Yellow Dam construction site, turning them into ossified corpses. Doc and his crew arrive on the scene as ancient giant skeletons are unearthed, further panicking the workers. Can anything stop this seemingly supernatural menace from reaching the nearby state capital?
