Decoder Ring Theatre
A pyromaniac is preying on the slums and tenement buildings of the city, bringing danger and misery to the lives of the some of its most vunerable citizens. The police are searching in vain for the firebug who holds the city in a grip of terror. But if a certain masked duo is right, there may be more to this arson spree than meets the eye. Can even the Red Panda and The Flying Squirrel withstand the flames of... Brimstone Alley?
A blinding snowstorm, a manor house cut off from the outside world, a desperate, violent act... A perfect recipe for danger? Perhaps. But those strangers who just came in the door, are they really newlyweds John and Jane Morris, or has a certain masked duo come calling? And will even The Red Panda and The Flying Squirrel be enough to prevent... A Midwinter's Murder?
And now, from headlines around the world and here at home, join us as the Radiogram News Picture Corporation presents: News On Parade!
Sometimes there's more to the story than a headline, as we find out as we follow our heroes on three short adventures that take us behind the scenes and show us that there's more to current events than meets the eye! With special guest star Jack Ward of The Sonic Society!

Who will win the day, the Red Panda's army of agents or... The Calaghan Mob?
Yes, kids, there's a man in red on the rooftops, but it ain't St Nick! In this very special slice of two-fisted pulp justice with all the trimmings, we tip our fedoras to the great Will Eisner and the classic Christmas stories he wrote for his much-loved Mystery Man "The Spirit", and in so doing, turn 1930's Toronto on its ear! Please enjoy, with our best wishes... Tis The Season!
Return with us now to the thrill-packed exploits of the masked protectors of 1930's Toronto as they hunt down one of their oldest and most diabolical foes! But with mechanical walking bombs appearing all over the city, it looks like the world's greatest criminal mastermind just became the least of their problems - to say nothing of the unkown threat of the mysterious... Red Squirrel!
With that Pompous Pirate of the Pen known only as The Poet on the loose, it was only a matter of time before clues in couplet form started sprouting up all over the city, each promising new crime more fiendish than the last. But Baxter's Law says "When the Goony-birds start changing their tune, there's usually something else goin' on." Will The Red Panda find the key to the villainous verse in time? Or will the city and it's masked protectors fall before... The Terrible Two?
A string of industrial accidents is plaguing the city, each more serious than the last. Little by little fear spreads, public confidence erodes and the economic engines of the city grind to a halt. Is this simple coincidence? A conspiricy of terror? Or are there forces still more sinister at work? The Red Panda must find out, or fall before the power of... Barton's Charm!
The day they carried Sam Merk out of the courtroom, he swore he'd never serve the life sentence he'd been given. He promised that the judge, the jury... everyone that had had put him behind bars would suffer a voodoo curse until he was freed. Of course, no one took him very seriously; until his victims started dropping like flies. Now The Red Panda may have only hours to crack the mystery... of The Empty Box!
