Kid, at least now it looks like we will be able to welcome you to the year 2009 sooner - rather than later.

Major Mars is actually the pulp character Captain Future, and this is an adaptation of his first adventure I believe (they did this a couple of times with various characters such as Secret Agent "X" and the Black Bat).

In fact the following "The Mask Strikes" is the retelling of the origin of the Black Bat, just with a new mystery man moniker and the last names changed of him and his aides. So, Tony Quinn, Silk Kirby, and Carol Baldwin become Tony Colby, Silk Davis, and Carol Smith.
