Radio Archives Pulp Classics
The Complete Exploits of Doc Turner, Volume 1
by Arthur Leo Zagat

“Doc” Turner was one of the least likely heroes that appeared in the pulp magazine stories. He was a little old pharmacist who ran a drug store in the slums of New York, where just about everyone came to him when they had problems. Oh, and what problems they had! Werewolves and vampires mixed in with extortionists and gangsters. And solve their problems he did, with the aid of his strapping redheaded assistant, mechanic Jack Ransom, and his young stock boy, Abe Ginsberg.

These short stories appeared in the back pages of The Spider magazine, a grand total of 70 of them. Every single one can be found in this collection, not a one is missing.

Ok, not great, but Ok

I had been reading a lot of pulp stories recently when I came across Doc Turner, reading that Doc meets Vampires, werewolves and other assorted nasties, I thought. I would take a chance. The stories were ok, not great, as each one became very similar to the next, and no werewolf in sight. The narrator was good, and brought the story to life, but he didn't have great material to work with. You can tell these are the original pulp stories, as many of the characters and the way they are portrayed would offend a lot of people today.
