With appalling suddenness, a fresh hooded monster of criminal offense unleashed swift murder and soul-chilling madness upon Manhattan. His military of assassins struck with wanton savagery to lash terrified hundreds of thousands into a paralysis of dread. The Dictator presented sway! And Richard Wentworth, the avenging Spider, powered to the ambuscades of the underworld, experienced the vortex of abrupt peril alone. Regarding to publisher Norvell W. Page, Richard Wentworth was a nemesis of the night, a swift and hidden knowledge avenger who meted out lethal justice to those of the underworld who dared to raise their hands against mankind; he was the person known throughout half the civilized world as the Spider, and tonight he used the disguise that could instantly identify him as that dread killer. An extended, black cape covered twisted shoulder blades. A broad-brimmed head wear tightly drawn down over the lank wig shadowed a beak-nosed face. The sight that glittered there have been steely with bitter hatred. For Wentworth himself, he believed in his objective implicitly: He was, he informed himself, no more a individual, but a cause. He was the Spider! He must live to defend humanity.... Using a "cold cosmic anger" in his sight, his "eerie weapons of mercy" blasting away unerringly, the Spider looked like superhuman, shrugging off crippling bullet wounds and accomplishing other feats of preternatural stamina that could have demolished a typical mortal. No think about Norvell W. Page called him a "man of metal" four years before Superman. Once again, the incomparable Nick Santa Maria reads another thrilling Spider exploit. "Dictator of the Damned" actually posted in The Spider newspaper, January 1937.
