The Shadow, November 15, 1937. Cover by George Rozen.
For the record, Sheridan Doome was a character written by Stephen Gould between 1935 and 193.
A U.S. Naval Intelligence agent, he was blown to bits in the Great War and had to be pieced back together as best they could. Afterward, he was mostly muscles, scars and metal.
He is described as "Doome was a tall, ghastly figure. His face was blank and gruesome, a white mass void of emotion. He had neither traces of hair nor whiskers and for eyes he had only black blotches. His mouth was a grim slit. A squared-off stump in the middle of his face was his nose. His uniform hung on him loosely, and sticking above his collar were two tiny iron braces."
Makes Reacher sound cute.

George Gross' cover for the Warner Paperback edition of The Avenger: River of Ice.
If The Avenger looks eerily similar to his fellow Street & Smith pulp hero, Doc Savage, it's because the model used for this painting is actor Steve Holland. Holland was the model used by artist James Bama for his famous Doc Savage paperback covers.
