#66 - The Rocketeer
Manage episode 433213235 series 3450502
The Rocketeer blasted onto the scene in 1982, created by writer/artist Dave Stevens as an homage to pulp-serial heroes of the 1930s! Despite producing only a handful of issues of The Rocketeer's adventures, the character and Stevens' work were an inspiration to readers and peers alike, and led to the cult-classic 1991 film by director Joe Johnston. Dave Stevens passed-away in 2008 due to complications with leukemia, but his body of work lives on in THE ROCKETEER: THE COMPLETE ADVENTURES, available in trade paperback from IDW Publishing.
