Re: Pulparize It!
The creative juices are flowing so here's another possibility.
The Equalizer
The Equalizer (Robert McCall) is a former agent of a shadowy, unnamed government agency, who is trying to make up for the unspoken sins of his past. His atonement comes in the form of an advertisement in the New York Yellow Pages that features the above quote. McCall uses his finely honed skills, and occasionally, the agents and resources from his old agency, to combat the injustices perpetrated against those who can't seek protection from the law.
In many ways the Equalizer is like the Shadow. Both are out to right wrongs and fight injustice. Both have agents they use in this fight. Of course, the shadow has the strange eastern arts. The Equalizer just has wits.
Not really a lot to have to change as I see it to set this up. Bootleggers instead of drug dealers, corrupt politicians are corrupt politicians, etc.
