Stony Man is a fictional clandestine anti-terrorist organization featured in the Executioner series of action-adventure novels first published in 1983 by American Gold Eagle publishers. The first book in the series, Stony Man Doctrine was published as a king-size one-shot in 1983, which became regarded as the first oversized Super Bolan book. In 1991, the Stony Man series began with Stony Man #2 (picking up from the 1983 novel) and ran continuously for a total of 140 novels, ending in late 2015.
