Creator: Gerald W. Page
Characters
The Armadillo
Lefty
Jane
Lisa
Scarlet Marmoset
Florabella
Darryl
He was wearing his black suit, his black cloak flying
behind him as he swung by the window on the rope; the familiar steel mask with
the ears poking up above the brim of the slouch hat, the determined snout
sticking out.
Lefty is Armadillo’s sidekick.
Jane in the police detective.
Lisa is the reporter.
The villains in the one story I read are The Scarlet
Marmoset, Florabella, and Darryl.
The character of The Armadillo was created back in 1956
or ’57, and has appeared in Grue, Mike Shayne Mystery Magazine, Spicy Armadillo
Stories, and anthologies like “When The Black Lotus Blooms”. I don’t have any
other data on the series. It was written as humorous homage to the pulp heroes.
