S1E24 - Ep 024: Retro-bution / Captain Power On

Despite being aimed at kids, Captain Power and The Soldiers of the Future was a suprisingly dark show!

An underappreciated 80s gem, Captain Power and The Soldiers of the Future was definitely ahead of its time. Written by J. Michael Straczynski, this surprisingly dark, post apocalyptic series was aimed at both kids and adults but struggled to find an audience. We discuss the show, the VHS tapes and the brilliant line of interactive toys!
