Lester Dent. “The Man Who Shook the Earth,” [in:] Doc Savage Magazine. Vol. 2, No. 6. New York: Street and Smith, February 1934.
An early issue of the enormously popular and long-running Doc Savage Magazine, with a cover by Walter M. Baumhofer. At its peak, Doc Savage Magazine sold 200,000 copies monthly, double the circulation of the science fiction pulps.
Allen Steele writes: “The underpinnings of the Doc Savage adventures may not always make sense, all the same they’re firmly rooted in rational scientific thought. In a sense, these stories are object lessons in Clarke’s Third Law — ‘Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic’ — delivered decades before Sir Arthur put it down on paper.”
No. 24.
