Internal timespans of Doc adventures?

[Ted Nolan <tednolan>]

Anyone have any feel for how long a typical Doc adventure lasts?

For that matter, what were the longest adventures? The shortest?
Any that happened over the course of one day only?

There a whole range. Some take months (blimp rides across the ocean) some of the
later ones are one to two days in length, with a wide range in between.

The Lost Oasis and The Sargasso Ogre may be two adventures, but technically
they are part of a single long journey.

THE GOLDEN MAN -- Monk and Ham are torpedoed on a boat. About a week
there. Then they're in a South American jail for 14 weeks. They make
it to NYC, and then the rest of the adventure is several days.

The ending of THE LOST OASIS implies a long time -- months? --
involved in repairing the dirgible, freeing the diamond mine slaves,
and finally returning to civilization, "Cairo, on the banks of the
lazy river Nile."

What's not in Columbia anymore..

Read Phillip Jose Farmers book Doc Savage His Apocalyptic Life.
It includes a chronology of all the adventures, clues what time of
the
year it happened, duration etc
your answers are all there.

IIRC someone did Indiana Jones type maps of the adventures online
but I don't know if they are still available
