A review by scostner
Hollywood Horror by Roger Langridge

4.0

The Rocka-who? For those who've seen the movie or read the previous adventures, Cliff Secord is back for more action. This time he's up against an evil mastermind that is using mental powers and a mechanical monster to make money off the Hollywood elite. What more can you want from a comic book hero? You have the ruggedly handsome Cliff, the incredible jetpack, Cliff's beautiful girlfriend Betty and his friend Peevy, the villain Otto Rune, the science genius August Lowcroft, intrepid girl reporter Dahlia Danvers ... all the staples of a 1930's comic strip. The period flavor is solid throughout the book with clothing and songs of the era, famous names like Howard Hughes, and even detective work by Nick and Nora Charles and their dog Asta.

If you enjoy comic book heroes, or are already a Rocketeer fan, you will enjoy this trip to the past.
