Notes Spider Boy is adapted from the 11/11/45 SHADOW radioplay (repeated 06/01/47) by Joe Bates Smith. [Note from Anthony Tollin on 17 August 2004] Also: "It's possible that Bruce Elliot did the adaptations, though I wouldn't be at all surprised if artist Bob Powell himself simply adapted the radioplays to comic format."
