The Black Bat - The First Black Bat

The First Black Bat

He appeared in Black Bat Detective Mysteries, a short-lived pulp which saw six issues, all written by Murray Leinster (a pen-name of William Fitzgerald Jenkins), between 1933 and 1934. He was a man called Black Bat in the way Simon Templar was called the Saint; unlike the Simon Templar books, however, none of the Black Bat stories ever mentioned the character's real name.

Famous quotes containing the word black:

    Don’t look now, God, we’re all right.
    All the suicides are eating Black Bean Soup;

    snoozles in her chair.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
