{{Disambig | Image = [[File:Shadow Magazine Vol 1 114.jpg|150px|link=Joe Cardona (Street & Smith)]] | MainPage = Joe Cardona (Street & Smith) | AltID = | ImageText = Joe Cardona (Street & Smith) | Description = '''Inspector Joe Cardona''' is a good, honest cop who works for the New York City police force. He began his career as a Detective, but was later promoted as a higher ranked Acting Inspector. Though they work independently from one another, he and [[The Shadow]] are unspoken allies. Any knowledge that Cardona learns during an investigation, is received as tip-offs from The Shadow. In fact, The Shadow, when disguised as "Fritz the janitor," often mops around Cardona's desk glancing at evidence or overhearing conversations. Cardona is also a trusted friend of newspaper reporter, [[Clyde Burke]], a Shadow agent. The Inspector often gives Burke inside information, and in turn, the reporter informs The Shadow with facts and knowledge about a case. For years, Cardona has worked alongside his longtime right-hand man, [[Markham|Sergeant Markham]], who replaced his earlier predecessor, Detective Sergeant Mayhew. Joe Cardona was created by [[Walter B. Gibson]], first appearing in {{c|Shadow Magazine #1}} (1931). | Gallery = ==Other Depictions of Joe Cardona:== <gallery widths=120> File:Joe Cardona (Radio Show).jpg|{{thumbnav|Joe Cardona (Radio Show)|The Shadow Radio Show|NYC Sergeant|Joe Cardona}} File:Joe Cardona (Dark Horse).jpg|{{thumbnav|Joe Cardona (Dark Horse)|Dark Horse|NYC Inspector|Joe Cardona}} File:Joe Cardona (DC Comics).jpg|{{thumbnav|Joe Cardona (DC Comics)|DC Comics|NYC Inspector|Joe Cardona}} File:Joe Cardona (Dynamite).jpg|{{thumbnav|Joe Cardona (Dynamite)|Dynamite Entertainment|NYC Inspector|Joe Cardona}} File:Joe Carton (Thriller).jpg|{{thumbnav|Joe Carton (Thriller)|The Thriller Library|Detective from Scotland Yard|Joe Carton}} </gallery> | SeeAlso = | Minor = }}
