So it was only natural that sooner or later my favorite of my own characters, Lucifer Jones (star of Adventures, Exploits, Encounters, and Hazards, who has thus far survived fifty-three pulp and B-movie parodies and counting), should eventually come across a most unusual show dog.Back in 1936 I found myself in Hungary, which ain’t never gonna provide the Riviera with any serious competition for tourists. Each town I passed through was duller than the last, until I got to Budapest, which was considerably less exciting than Boise, Idaho on a Tuesday afternoon.I passed by an old, run down arena that did double duty, hosting hockey games on weeknights and dog shows on Saturdays, then walked by the only nightclub in town, which was featuring one of the more popular lady tuba soloists in the country, and finally I came to the Magyar Hotel and rented me a room. After I’d left my gear there I set out to scout out the city and see if there were enough depraved sinners to warrant building my tabernacle there and setting up shop in the salvation business.
