(although the video does take a while before it gets there) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a7g7v3F4kO0 Has anyone here read any of Hamilton's pulp stories or novels? I've read his "Battle for the stars" novel and it was meh, but Captain Future sounds completely nuts. I have very faint memories of the anime. It wasn't super popular in Italy, but apparently it's even less popular in the US. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZCSy2KpJfhQ My retrospective of the pre-Crisis Legion: http://comicsarcheology.com/index.php/legion-of-super-heroes-retrospective/
