I hope you read it.<br /><br />I know that a lot of Old-Time Radio shows had comic book tie-ins, and vice versa. (<i>The Mysterious Traveler,</i> for example, had both radio and comic incarnations.) Was there any connection between <i>The Hand of Fate</i> (comics) and <i>The Diary of Fate</i> (radio)? <br /><br /><i>Diary</i> doesn't feature the supernatural so much (mostly murder and embezzlement), but both features are pretty much over the top, and it's hard not to read our host's commentary and not hear his OTR counterpart's stentorian, ham-fisted delivery. ("But because of a <i>little thing</i>, a mere choice of words in an old newspaper, <i>you,</i> George Crandall, have earned an entry in . . . The Diary of Fate.")Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-983171239671909762.post-79289832386305203972011-12-28T16:42:57.122-06:002011-12-28T16:42:57.122-06:00Not many horror western fans out there, eh?Not many horror western fans out there, eh?Mr. Karswellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15889717828895556186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-983171239671909762.post-46938038215261177472011-12-23T14:15:49.717-06:002011-12-23T14:15:49.717-06:00You know what was the most surprising thing about ...You know what was the most surprising thing about this story?
