Captain Future

Captain Future is a U.S. pulp series by Edmond Hamilton, published from 1940 to 1944. She became known in Europe primarily through the Captain Future anime series, which aired on television in the early 1980s.
The original series idea under the title Mr. Future, Wizard of Science was developed by Mort Weisinger, an editor at Better Publications, during the 1939 World Science Fiction Convention. In it, a mutant superhero with superior physical and mental abilities was to be the main character. Three secondary characters were intended as helpers: a robot telepathically controlled by Mr. Future, a crystalline life form from Jupiter, and an ancient man who has read every book in the world and presents his knowledge as a walking encyclopedia. This was intended to combine the subgenres of space opera and superheroes that were popular at the time. It took Edmond Hamilton, principal author of the novels, a great deal of persuasion to dissuade the editors from their original ideas. However, the title remained almost the same at the beginning: Captain Future, Wizard of Science, but later changed to Captain Future, Man of Tomorrow.
