Rocketeer was my introduction into Superheroes he is probably my favorite superhero alongside Kamen Rider, Blue Beetle, Moon Knight, and Ultraman so this is very cool I hope to see modern stories for him and see maybe even see crossovers
It is a fun movie - heavy on the nostalgia of the period, but you’ll like it. Just don’t tell your wife you are going out buying a bunch of Rocketeer figures now - she is mad enough at me as it is!
Man I really love that you introduced The rocketeer! He's one of my favorite pulp fiction characters! Man I really hope The Phantom or The Shadow gets their own video soon!🤞
Great video! Joe Johnston was also the creator of Boba Fett, well Lucas was, but Joe designed,built and painted the original Fett costume for empire strikes back, gonna checkt the Dave Stevens docu now!
Grew up loving the film! (Home viewing) Disappointing to know it wasn’t a box office success but glad it has it’s fans. Bc Stevens’ artwork is so phenomenal, I didn’t realize the comic predated/created the film version. It felt much more contemporary in the early 2000s when I learned the truth if that makes sense haha.. any way going to check out that Doc, thanks for the video!
Fantastic review.I was a kid when The Rocketeer came out and I have to be honest I wasn't a fan all those years ago,but as an adult I rewatch the movie and I love it now. I really came to appreciate it. I really like the lose collector Rocketter and Betty. I just wish it came with the movie rocket.
What an awesome, aesthetically pleasing look for a character. My only knowledge of The Rocketeer is from the movie, but I’d love to have any of these figures. Great video.
This is great, Mr. Scoring! I love the comic history aspect. The Rocketeer is such a nostalgic property for me. I don’t even really remember the movie, but I remember thinking it was so cool when I was a kid! But as an ophthalmologist, I spotted that bilateral exotropia on that head sculpt from a mile away while watching on my phone and folding laundry. Oof.
Reaction is Super7, not Funko. They only distributed for a couple years which is why they were everywhere in the beginning. Thanks for the video. I had forgotten about those Fresh Monkey figs.
Hands down one of the coolest and best characters ever! Maybe it's because I'm a history and aviation buff or that I'm a pilot that loves comics but the rocketeer is one of my all time favorite characters ever pit to print!
