Storyline
Straight from the pages of a pulp comic from a past era, the Rocketeer recreates 1930's Hollywood, complete with gangsters, Nazi spies, and the growth of the Age of Aviation. Young pilot Cliff Secord stumbles on a top secret rocket-pack and with the help of his mechanic/mentor, Peevee, he attempts to save his girl and stop the Nazis as The Rocketeer. Written by Greg Bole <bole@life.bio.sunysb.edu>

Trivia
Tiny Ron's character Lothar is made-up to look like Rondo Hatton who played similar characters in the "B" movies which inspired The Rocketeer. Ron can be seen out of makeup in a cameo as one of two Good Old Boys. He gapes as his companion marvels at the "Big gopher!" See more »Goofs
Anachronisms: In 1938 we see the "Spruce Goose" which was designed in 1942, but not built until 1947. See more »Quotes
