Captain Future

from Fancyclopedia 2

(Hamilton) A long-sustained series which was the quintessence of thud-and-blunder zap-zap science fiction; appeared in its own magazine and in Startling Stories. Cap's stooges, the Futuremen, are worthy remark: Grag the Robot, Otho the Android, and Simon Wright, the Living Brain. There were also iron-eating meteor pups and other feckless/frivolous additions from time to time.
