From Wikipedia:
Chandu the Magician
is an American supernatural
radio drama
which originally aired from 1931–1936. A revival on a different network took place 12 years later, airing from 1948–1950. The series was created by Harry A. Earnshaw (1878–1953) and Raymond R. Morgan. The two series starred Frank Chandler, also known as Chandu, an American who had learned mystical arts, such as
astral projection
, which he used to fight criminals and villains, including the evil Baron Roxor. Chandu was
Stan Lee
's inspiration for the more famous
Marvel Comics
character
Doctor Strange
.
Launched in 1931 on KHJ in Los Angeles, the series was soon heard through the West Coast when broadcast on the
Don Lee Network
. It was then heard, starting in February 1932, over WOR in the East. Nationally, it aired over the
Mutual Network
beginning on October 8, 1932. The series was sponsored by White King Soap in the West and by Beech Nut Gum in the East.
Gayne Whitman
played the lead role of American-born Frank Chandler, who had learned occult secrets from a yogi in
India
. Known as Chandu, he possessed several supernatural skills, including
astral projection
,
teleportation
and the ability to create illusions. Chandu's goal was to "go forth with his youth and strength to conquer the evil that threatens mankind". His sister, Dorothy Regent, was portrayed by Margaret MacDonald.
