Chanting the magic words did not give the Lama super powers. Plus, the Lama was an expert scarf fighter and garroter.<br /><br />I believe Adventure House Books reprinted all of the Lama's adventures fairly recently, and if memory serves, Altus Press might have a collection of the pulp adventures.Glen Davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06159866063741462707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4819665860959438823.post-61583541530649925072012-12-23T17:06:12.797-05:002012-12-23T17:06:12.797-05:00I'm not familiar with the Green Lama (except f...I'm not familiar with the Green Lama (except for the Shazam version) and I wondered if it was the same character of a different pulp-based hero.
