  Captain Future and the Seven Space Stones: Captain Future #5 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 300min

  Although an orphan, Curtis Newton's parents left him with gifts that would most definitely lead to him becoming Captain Future, the superman of the space ways. His mother, Elaine, provided him with his mission, to become the protector of the solar system, to fight for justice wherever it may take him. Roger, his father, not only passed on incredible genius and scientific skills, but he provided him with three caregivers that would grow to be the greatest team a space faring hero could have-The Futuremen!

The Futuremen, the trio that battles injustice alongside Captain Future, all have their origins in the Moon Laboratory that is both home and headquarters to Captain Future. Referred to as a citadel of science, the Moon Laboratory is designed in a circular fashion and contains quarters for the Futuremen.

Grag's greatest desire is to be considered human, a point that Otho tends to agitate him over again and again, leading to some of the funniest moments in the stories.

The synthetic man does not naturally resemble an Earthman, but Otho is well known for his mastery of disguise, a skill that has been useful for Captain Future on many occasions. Otho also is faster and more nimble than nearly any other being alive. Otho also enjoys the danger of each mission they undertake, almost as much as he likes to antagonize the humorless Grag about not being human.

  Magician of Mars: Captain Future, Book 7 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 287min

  Renegades from nine worlds crash out from interplanetary prison in a weird quest for phantom treasure. Follow the Futuremen as the greatest feud of all time catapults them into the fifth dimension. Captain Future is the roving marshal of the spaceways, supported by the Futuremen, the best deputies the universe has to offer. And as strange and exotic as the heroes may be, the villains are cut from even more exotic, weirder cloth. Captain Future has no shortage of enemies. Beings from across the universe and beyond plot to dominate planets, to destroy galaxies, and find themselves defeated by Captain Future. Only one of his foes, however, proved evil enough to face Captain Future twice. Ul Quorn, the Magician of Mars, is actually the son of the man responsible for murdering Curtis Newton's parents. Intelligent, ruthless, and strong, Quorn is nearly Captain Future's equal in every way and comes closer than any to ending the life of the Man of Tomorrow. Captain Future learned much of what he knew from perhaps the oddest surrogate father in fiction - The Brain. Simon Wright, a brilliant scientist and companion to Curtis Newton's father, became so riddled with age and sickness that the only option to continue his life meant literally living as a brain in a specially designed box. When Captain Future's parents were killed, Wright not only serves as Captain Future's mentor, but also as the leader of the trio of Futuremen who join Captain Future on his wild escapades. More than just a brain in the box, Simon Wright plays a major role in Captain Future's history and stories. Rocket into science-fiction adventure and discover new worlds. Ripped from the pages of the summer 1941 issue of Captain Future magazine, Magician of Mars is read with wonder and excitement by Milton Bagby. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Milton Bagby.

  Captain Future #3 Captain Future's Challenge , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 333min

  Striking terror on four worlds, a mysterious raider throttles interplanetary commerce - and earth summons Curtis Newton, the wizard of science, and his trio of Futuremen to combat this sinister menace. Science fiction is full of heroes, from warriors to explorers. Only one figure, though, exemplifies every trait that a great hero sailing the stars should have. Captain Future, created largely by Edmond Hamilton based on a concept given to him from Thrilling Publications. Equal parts genius, fighter, scientist, explorer, and loyal team member, Captain Future set the standard for what great science-fiction stories should be, the impact of the stories still being felt today. Mystery is an element of many of the Captain Future stories. Curt Newton and the Futuremen are often faced with not only saving an alien race or preventing planetary destruction, but also learning who is behind the latest evil deed or how it is being done. The way in which the science fiction whodunits are built in the stories aren't simply throwaway devices. Clues are left and facts are shared with listeners, making the final solution believable and exciting, letting them reveal the bad guy right alongside Captain Future. Most definitely science-fiction space opera, the Captain Future stories go beyond that. A traditional pulp hero in many ways, Captain Future also proved to be a character that readers could easily relate to. His involvement in the quest for justice is equally driven by his natural curiosity, the desire to explore and learn. He also clearly sees those closest to him, particularly the Futuremen, as family, and reacts to them in that way. The stories are also peppered with humor and absurd encounters with strange beings. Rocket into science fiction adventure and discover new worlds. Ripped from the pages of the summer 1940 issue of Captain Future magazine, "Captain Future's Challenge" is read with wonder and excitement by Milton Bagby. ungekürzt. Language: English.

  Captain Future: Star Trail to Glory , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 297min

  Follow the Futuremen along a multi-million miles of stellar speedway as they streak around the system in their greatest race for justice! Mort Weisinger, Thrilling Publications' go-to science fiction editor, presented author Edmond Hamilton with a concept for a futuristic hero cast in the mold of Doc Savage. This was a calculated move, as Hamilton had already built a strong reputation as a popular writer of space opera. Hamilton took the rudimentary odds and ends that Weisinger had come up with and stitched them together into Captain Future, using another series he'd written, The Three Planeteers, as a blueprint. Protecting the universe is not a job that Captain Future and the Futuremen can do alone. The Planet Police, a far reaching organization of law enforcement officers patrolling the solar system, work with Curtis Newton in many of his adventures. Marshal Ezra Gurney is a 40-year veteran of the Planet Police, able to remember when law was not widespread. Joan Randall is also a member of the organization, an officer in the elite Space Patrol. As Captain Future stories continued to be written, it likely became necessary for Newton and the Futuremen to make their way beyond our own solar system, even our own galaxy. To this end, Captain Future eventually invents the "vibration drive", a device that essentially allows the band of heroes to go anywhere they need to to protect the universe. New planets get explored and galaxies unheard of spring into life, all teeming with some mystery and evil for Captain Future to face. With each Captain Future story, the boundaries of where the hero might go grew, eventually only being limited by the readers' imaginations. Rocket into science fiction adventure and discover new worlds. Ripped from the pages of the Spring 1941 issue of Captain Future magazine, "Star Trail to Glory" is read with wonder and excitement by Milton Bagby. ungekürzt. Language: English.

  Trapped in the depths of Halley's Comet, the Futuremen battle fourth-dimensional monsters in a titanic struggle to save the system's solar energy! Captain Future learned much of what he knew from perhaps the oddest surrogate father in fiction - The Brain. Simon Wright, a brilliant scientist and companion to Curtis Newton's father, became so riddled with age and sickness that the only option to continue his life meant literally living as a brain in a specially designed box.
