CAPTAIN Z-RO RETURNING AGAIN?!

Vance Capley announced today that his version of the public domain tv time traveling superhero Captain Z-Ro is coming back in a one-shot comic book in 2020.

"The fans really enjoyed the Captain Z-Ro graphic novel and would like to see another adventure. We are working on a second graphic novel, but it will be awhile before it's ready. So, in the meantime, I'm preparing this one-shot comic book as an appetizer before the up coming main course."

We asked Mr. Capley what this "appetizer" would be about, "Well, of course it involves time travel, but it's going to be a team up book featuring another public domain character or two....it'll be like the old Marvel Team-Up comics from back in the day. As for the adventure, I'm keeping that hush-hush until I get closer to completing the project."

And what of the Captain Z-Ro graphic novel, "it's going to make the last one look like boring. It's loaded with all kinds of cool stuff. We meant new enemies...and new heroes...and some old favorites. It's going to be epic!"

To make sure fans don't miss out, here's where can fans get the original Captain Z-Ro graphic novel y Vance Capley:

“Being a comic creator, I’m thinking surely someone has done a comic book of this show. I researched and couldn’t find any comics anywhere. I decided that I’m going to make a Captain Z-Ro comic book.”
Vance Capley began work on the Captain’s new 92 page full-color comic book adventure a few years ago. The Captain’s new adventure revolves around talking dinosaurs, ufos, and alternate time-lines.


Currently the book is available at his website (vancecapleyart.com) and is available in both digital and print.

WHO IS CAPTAIN Z-RO?

Captain Z-Ro was created by the late Roy Steffens and originally aired in 15 minute episodes from 1951-1953 on KRON and KTTV. Atlas Television Corporation picked up the program. The shows switched to 24 minute episodes and were then syndicated.
“I found the show while researching clips in the public domain. I stopped searching and ended up watching several episodes of Captain Z-Ro. It really captured my imagination.”
Captain Z-Ro (Roy Steffens) traveled in both space and time with his assistants Jett (Bob Turnbull), Tetro (Jack Cahill), and Micro (Mike Chamberlin and H.A. Chamberlin). The show was supported by a wonderful cast of actors portraying various figures in history including John Trigonis, Eddie Bartell, Muriel Landers, and many more including Roy Steffens wife, Kim Steffens, who played historical figure Molly Pitcher.
Though the time traveling revolved around history lessons, there plenty sci-fi adventure to keep the children watching.
Over time, the show fell into the public domain…and, sadly, was forgotten.
