Doc Savage Returns in New Audiobook


There are lots of docs in comics. Doc Ock, Dr. Strange, Dr. Doom...you get the picture. Doc Savage is another doctor that hails from the pulp era of comics that many of today's readers might not be familiar with. A new audiobook should do the trick in familiarizing those not in the know with the savage doc.

Python Isle is the first audiobook from Radio Archives. In it, a long=lost pioneer flyer returns to civilization accompanied by an exotic woman who speaks in a lost tongue. From his towering skyscraper headquarters in New York, through a dangerous Zeppelin journey to Cape Town, climaxing on a serpent-haunted island in the forbidden reaches of the Indian Ocean, Doc Savage and his iron comrades race to untangle a weird puzzle so deep that the only clues can be found in the Bible.

It's written by Will Murray and produced and directed by Roger Rittner. Yeah, those are the guys behing "The Adventures of Doc Savage" radio series. It will feature narration by Michael McConnohie, cover art by Joe DeVito and two exclusive audio interviews with Murray on the history of Doc Savage and the discovery of Doc Savage creator Lester Dent's long lost manuscripts.

The 8-cd set will set you back $25.98 while the digital download will be $17.98. Full press release after the jump.
