Jim Anthony, Super Detective, was a fictional pulp magazine character published in Trojan Publications' ''Super Detective'' magazine. Jim Anthony was an attempt to create a Doc Savage like character. However, as the publisher was formerly Culture Publications, the publisher of the "spicy pulps", Anthony had spicy pulp elements. ==Characters== Jim Anthony was described as "half Irish, half Indian, and all-American". He inherited great wealth and physical attributes. He could see in the dark, was super strong, and had a sixth sense. He excelled in several subjects, including physics, psychiatry, and electro-chemistry. He owned businesses around the country, including the Waldorf-Anthony Hotel in New York, where he maintained a penthouse apartment and secret laboratory. There was also the Tepee, his hidden mansion in the Catskills Mountains, and the Pueblo in the southwest, a hotel/resort built at an oasis by Anthony. His father was Shean Boru Anthony, an Irishman who had traveled the world as an adventurer, becoming rich in the process. His mother was Fawn Johntom, daughter of a Comanche chief. Anthony was aided by several others: * Tom Gentry, large, Irish, served as chief pilot, chauffeur and man Friday. * Dawkins, English butler * Mephito, Anthony's grandfather, a Comanche shaman who guarded the Tepee. * Delores Colquitte, daughter of Senator Colquitt and Anthony's love interest. The first ten novels pitted Anthony against a variety of super-villains bent on the destruction of the United States. The first three had Anthony go up against Rado Ruric. After ''Spies of Destiny'', the Anthony stories were changed to a more hard-boiled detective stories. This was probably done by direction of the publisher. The larger-than-life elements were dropped, along with most of his supporting characters, leaving only Tom Gentry. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jim Anthony」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
