Indexer Notes

The Leopard Strikes is adapted from the 01/05/41 SHADOW radioplay by Jerry Devine. Walter Gibson probably did the comics adaptation since he was receiving copies of the radio scripts, though its also possible that artist Vernon Greene may have worked directly from the radio script while he was doing the artwork. (Walter did have bitter feelings about being excluded from the radio scriptwriting, which causes me to wonder if he would have wanted to rewrite radio scripts.) [Note from Anthony Tollin on 17 August 2004].
