I was lucky enough to find a full set of the Doc Savage paperbacks when I was 13. What amazing adventures I had!
Doc Savage was awesome, his gold eyes and the “trilling sound” he made when deep in thought. Those things, and of course Monk, a short and stout looking guy with brains.
Doc Savage. I think I read every one of them, Twice.

"Use your magic, Harry!"
"Penis Testes Reducto!"
