The Shadow

Product Information

These are just a few examples of how the shadow can manifest in our lives. The point is that the shadow isn’t necessarily evil. It’s simply a part of who we are that we’ve chosen to deny. The Supreme Court rapidly went from a way HIGHER approval then Congress and the Executive branch to a race to the bottom.

Just remember that these two halves aren’t mutually exclusive. They coexist together, they are one. They are one and the same thing.

In contrast to the pulps, The Shadow radio drama limited the cast of major characters to The Shadow, Commissioner Weston, and Margo Lane, the last of whom was created for the radio series. Along with giving The Shadow a love interest, Margo was created because it was believed that including Harry Vincent as a regular would mean an overabundance of male characters (considering the criminals in the stories were usually male, too) and could possibly make it difficult for the audience to distinguish between the voices of so many male actors. [15] The radio script for "The Death House Rescue" (reprinted in The Shadow Scrapbook) features Harry Vincent, but he did not appear in the actual radio broadcast or any episode of the radio drama series. Clyde Burke made occasional appearances, but not as an agent of The Shadow. Lieutenant Cardona was a minor character in several episodes. Moe Shrevnitz (identified only as "Shrevvy") made several appearances as a simple-minded acquaintance of Cranston and Lane who sometimes acted as their chauffeur, unaware Cranston was actually The Shadow. We all have times when someone says something that suddenly creates an impulsive negative reaction. The Shadow, at the end of each episode, reminded listeners, "The weed of crime bears bitter fruit! Crime does not pay...The Shadow knows!" The Shadow's return to network airwaves began with the first episode, Deathhouse Rescue". Rusc.com . Retrieved 2014-04-11.

From our collective unconscious, Jung believed 12 distinct typical human qualities and faults developed. He called these archetypes. The shadow self is one of these 12 archetypes. As I mentioned, according to Jung’s theories we each have a personal unconscious, which is developed from our own unique experiences. But we also have a collective unconscious, which is biologically inherited and programmed into us from birth. This is based on universal themes of what it is to be human. In August 2011, Dynamite licensed The Shadow from Condé Nast for an ongoing comic book series and several limited run miniseries. [33] Its first on-going series was written by Garth Ennis and illustrated by Aaron Campbell; it debuted on April 19, 2012. This series ran for 26 issues; the regular series ended in May 2014, but a prologue issue #0 was published in July 2014. Dynamite followed with the release of an eight-issue miniseries, Masks, teaming the 1930s Shadow with Dynamite's other pulp hero comic book adaptations, the Spider, the Green Hornet and Kato, and a 1930s Zorro, plus four other heroes of the pulp era from Dynamite's comics lineup. Dynamite offered a 10-issue Shadow miniseries, The Shadow: Year One, followed by the team-up five-issue miniseries, The Shadow/Green Hornet: Dark Nights, and a Shadow six-issue miniseries set in the modern era, The Shadow: Now. In August 2015, Dynamite Entertainment launched volume 2 of The Shadow, a new ongoing series written by Cullen Bunn and drawn by Giovanni Timpano.But it also shows up in our day-to-day lives too, albeit differently for all of us. And so we’ll all have unique shadow behaviors. Hayes, Dade (July 16, 2020). "James Patterson, Condé Nast Reviving The Shadow In New Original Book Series". The goal of the reboot is to introduce a new generation to the character and his world, according to Bill Robinson of James Patterson Entertainment. “As we launch the new series of Shadow books, we will also plot the course of the Shadow’s return to the screen together with Condé Nast Entertainment,” he said. For example, if you notice that whenever you talk to a particular person, you tend to get upset, angry, or irritated, there is more to be explored. Most people aren’t aware that they’ve been replaying the same unconscious roles from childhood. These familiar paths become comfortable to us, and so they create the framework by which we interact with others.

It’s not so difficult to understand why we work so hard to turn away from our shadow selves. Each of us has a socially acceptable mask that we are used to putting on. When The Shadow resurfaced in the 1980s, it was apparent to those that knew him that he had not aged at all. Therefore longevity must be added to his list of disciplines. Man becomes whole, integrated, calm, fertile, and happy when (and only when) the process of individuation is complete when the conscious and the unconscious have learned to live at peace and to complement one another.” — Carl Jung, Man And His Symbols

Integrating the hidden power of your dark side

There were three Shadow annuals, in 1942, 1943 and 1947. Each annual would reprint three earlier published novels. (The three novels in each annual were edited to shorter lengths to fit the prescribed size of the publications.) In addition to The Hand and The Silent Seven, The Shadow also battled other one-shot collectives of criminals, including The Hydra, The Green Hoods, The White Skulls, The Five Chameleons, and The Salamanders. Dr. Jekyll represents our persona — how we see ourselves —whilst Mr. Hyde is the ignored and repressed shadow self. The shadow, when it is realized, is the source of renewal; the new and productive impulse cannot come from established values of the ego. When there is an impasse, and sterile time in our lives—despite adequate ego development—we must look to the dark, the hitherto unacceptable side which has been at our conscious disposal….
