GEORGE CHANCE: THE GREEN GHOST, VOLUME 1

Before Superman or Batman, pulp magazines featured heroes like The Green Hornet and Doc Savage. Airship 27 Productions creates new adventures of some of the lesser-known pulp heroes of the 1930s-40s, like The Green Ghost. With the canny combination of nifty studio tricks and narrator Roger Price's smooth baritone, the new adventures of the old hero sound fresh and authentic. Price, a former radio broadcaster, has a voice that fits old-time radio. He deftly switches from character to character--from the Green Ghost to his quirky friends: the midget Tiny Tim, gambler and marksman Joe Roberts, and a beauty named Merry. They battle a 1940s mobster who is trying to take over a seaside vacation spot, in addition to two other adventures. M.S. [Published: JANUARY 2016]
