“Early in life, he had amassed a tremendous fortune—for one purpose. That purpose was to go here and there, from one end of the world to the other, looking for excitement and adventure, striving to help those who needed help, punishing those who deserved it. To that creed he had devoted his life.” https://library.hrmtc.com/2026/01/28/early-in-life-he-had-amassed-a-tremendous-fortune-for-one-purpose-that-purpose-was-to-go-here-and-there-from-one-end-of-the-world-to-the-other-looking-for-excitement-and-adventure-striv/ #adventure #amassed #book #creed #deserved #Devoted #DocSavage #earlyInLife #endOfTheWorld #excitement #forOnePurpose #fromOne #help #hereAndThere #KennethRobeson #LesterDent #life #looking #needed #pulpNovel #punishing #purpose #quote #Striving #toGo #toTheOther #tremendousFortune -
In this bit from Doc Savage: Pirate of the Pacific (1933), Doc uses some bleeding edge tech to spy on his enemies:
*The man might have saved himself a lot of trouble had he taken time to investigate the floating box he had noted. Close scrutiny would have shown the top and sides of the box were fitted with what resembled large camera lenses.*
*Inside the box were other lenses, spinning disks perforated with small holes, sensitive photo-electric cells - a compact television transmitter. Waterproofed electric wires led from this down into the water.*
*Long Island Sound was not deep at this point. The under-the-polar-ice submarine, Helldiver, rested on the bottom. The wires from the television box entered the underseas boat.*
Since this is 1933, that television camera is, of course, MECHANICAL TELEVISION. Flashing lights, spinning disks, and all:

OH. YEAH.

Doc Savage: The Man of Bronze was a patriotic, jingoistic sort of superhero from the pre-Superman pulp era. By 1975, he was most definitely too passe to find an audience.

"Let me strive every moment of my life to make myself better and better, to the best of my ability, that all may profit by it. Let me think of the right and lend all my assistance to those who need it, with no regard for anything but justice. Let me take what comes with a smile, without loss of courage. Let me be considerate of my country, of my fellow citizens and my associates in everything I say and do. Let me do right to all, and wrong no man."
The Doc Savage Code, created in 1933 by author John Nanovic, who edited almost all the Doc Savage adventures, along with many other pulp heroes. Ironic that something from so long ago, and, OK, being imperfect and a product of its time, will still seem "woke" today.
I carry this in my wallet.

The Doc Savage Oath, created in 1933 by author Lester Dent, who wrote almost all the Doc Savage adventures. My only suggested edit would be to change "man" at the end to "one."
