12 Chapters
King of the Rocket
Men is a 1949 Republic movie serial, in twelve chapters, notable
for introducing the "Rocketman Character" who reappeared
under a variety of names in later serials Radar Men from the Moon,
Zombies of the Stratosphere and the semi-serial Commando Cody: Sky
Marshal of the Universe.
Plot
An evil genius of
unknown identity, calling himself "Dr Vulcan," plots to
conquer the world, but first needs to eliminate one by one the
members of the Science Associates, an organization of the Earth's
greatest scientists. After narrowly
escaping an attempt
on his life by Vulcan, one member of Science Associates, Dr.
Millard (James Craven), outfits another member, Jeff King (Tristram
Coffin) with an "atomic powered rocket flying suit."
With the help of the suit, a magazine photographer named Glenda
Thomas (Mae Clarke), and other inventions of Dr. Millard, King
battles the minions of Dr. Vulcan for twelve suspenseful episodes.
Eventually Vulcan steals one of Millard's more dangerous
inventions, the Decimator, and uses it to flood and destroy
Manhattan Island (courtesy of stock footage from the
once-thought-lost film, Deluge (1933), before being brought to
justice by Jeff King in his jet pack.
