Our Cast:<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Hannibal Tesla, Man of Science<\/strong>— The son of the brilliant inventor, Hannibal Tesla is a modern Renaissance man.\u00a0 He is recognized as a leading expert in several scientific fields; he speaks a dozen languages fluently, and has trained his body to the pinnacle of human perfection.\u00a0 He assisted Robert Goddard in designing the first Moon Rocket and with Charles Lindbergh, landed on the moon in 1929.\u00c2\u00a0 He developed the Electric Autogyro and perfected the Subterranean Mole Machine.\u00a0 He also makes a mean peanut butter and liverwurst sandwich.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Francis Xavier Grogan, Two-Fisted Archaeologist <\/strong>— Although his appearance suggests the fabled Missing Link, Grogan is actually one of the leading archaeologists in the field.\u00a0 His knowledge of ancient civilizations and languages makes him invaluable to Hannibal’s team, as does his skills as a bare-knuckle fighter.\u00a0 He has a firey Irish temper, which sometimes gets him in trouble; and is a habitual skirt-chaser, which always gets him in trouble.\u00c2 He also has lamentable taste in clothes.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Raymond Steele, Cinema Idol<\/strong> — Handsome and dapper, British actor Ray Steele is best known for his roles in Hollywood B-movies such as Skies of Texas<\/em> and I Died Yet Again<\/em>.\u00a0 His leading-man looks and his suave charm would probably make him a top star if he didn’t spend so much time away from Hollywood adventuring with Hannibal’s team.\u00c2 He is talented at impersonation, and studied fencing with Basil Rathbone.\u00a0 Like Grogan, he has a weakness for the ladies; and the two men’s rivalry in this area sometimes drives Hannibal to distraction.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Elwood Braun, Mathematical Marvel<\/strong> — He seems quiet and bookish, but under his mop of unruly hair rests the mind of a mathematical genius.\u00a0 Elwood’s ability to instantly calculate complex equations makes him an uncanny marksman and he usually has a pistol tucked away on his person.\u00a0 He rarely gets excited and usually seems completely absorbed in his reading; but he is highly perceptive of the details around him.\u00a0 You don’t want to play pool against him.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Billy Highcloud, Navajo Ace<\/strong> — The youngest member of Hannibal’s team, Billy is not actually an ace.\u00a0 He was too young to fight during the Great War, although his father served as was a decorated pilot.\u00a0 Billy grew up barnstorming with his father around the Southwest.\u00a0 A skilled mechanic and a natural pilot, Billy can fly anything with wings; and a few things without them.\u00a0 He has strong ties with his family, especially his Grandfather, whose proverbs he likes to quote.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Ginger DuPree, Girl Reporter<\/strong>— The most recent addition to the team, Ginger DuPree is a reporter for the Chicago Courier.\u00a0 She covered the Martian Invasion of the Moon and for a time was a prisoner of the Martian Cat-Men.\u00a0 (Her prosthetic tail is a “gift” of the Martians, which she sometimes finds a nuisance).\u00a0 Gutsy and impetuous, she’s now after an even bigger story:\u00a0 Hannibal Tesla.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Inspector Lawrence Li and Timmy:<\/strong>\u00a0 The celebrated Honolulu detective is currently vacationing in Hong Kong, accompanied by his Number One Son, Timmy.\u00a0 Larry Li’s somewhat stilted speaking pattern conceals a keen criminological mind.\u00a0 Timmy’s speaking pattern reveals his college education in America.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Pherd Lhapka:<\/strong>\u00a0 A Sherpa guide who was worked with Hannibal on previous adventures in Tibet, including an unsuccessful attempt to climb Mt. Everest.\u00a0 He’s hoping for better luck next time.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

The Yeti:<\/strong>\u00a0 Just your typical everyday yeti.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Weng Hu:<\/strong>\u00a0 A mysterious mastermind whose criminal empire covers much of Asia and who controls it from his dirigible.\u00a0 He has an army of soldiers who fly on rocket packs of his own invention.\u00a0 And he has a thing for girls with tails…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
