The Masked Detective was launched in 1940 at the height of the popularity of the “pulp hero” magazines, and each issue featured a novel about Rex Parker, the “masked detective”, as well as a handful of short stories and departments. It appeared on a quarterly basis but only lasted 12 issues before becoming a casualty of the paper shortages of World War II. |
