One of the most popular heroes of the 1960s returns in his first ever full-length novel. Super-spy and master of disguise, Miles Drake, aka Captain Action investigates the “Riddle of the Glowing Men,” by writer Jim Beard. Foreign assassins are sent to kill Captain Action and though he manages to defeat them, it is their lifeless bodies that pose the greater mystery as they give off a green, glowing radiation.
Teamed with a beautiful and seductive Russian Agent, Captain Action travels to the barren, frozen wastelands of Siberia where the secret behind the glowing men lies buried in a fantastic, lost underground world. It is a secret also pur- sued by his most dangerous nemesis, the insidious Dr. Evil. What is this strange power hidden beneath the earth that could destroy all of mankind and who will unlock its mysteries first?
“Riddle of the Glowing Men,” is a classic pulp thriller packed with enough intrigue, daring escapes and breakneck adventure to fill a dozen books. Featuring a stunning cover by artist Nick Runge and interior illustrations by award winning artist, Rob Davis, it presents a well loved hero to a new audience eager to experience his special brand of two-fisted battling, Captain Action style!

“You’ll find lifejackets under your seat. In the event of a water landing, they will keep you afloat. Unless you’re seized by a giant squid and dragged screaming beneath the waves.”
I have the exact quote stitched into a throw pillow. It's my worst fear. Like the worms of Arrakis, the big squid can feel the vibrations of a crashing plane on the surface of the water.
I just lucked out and found the THOR,CAP and LOKI outfits at Toys'R US...19.99 a piece.....I'm excited. Trouble is....now I need three figure to put them on.
Have to buy two more figures. Gonna try to find loose nude ones on ebbay to put the Phantom and Kabai Singh outfits on.
I just saw the newest Wolverine and Iron deluxe costumes for Captain Action and I still haven't found the Thor and Loki sets yet.
Ill get the three new ones. Waiting for Hawkeye...want a Spidey.
Picked up Spisey today....different store 4 bucks more ...weird
I have cap and spidey and they have the start of the Hawkeye...Loki and Thor have the rest of the Hawkeye costume. Those are the deluxe sets. The next deluxe set is Iron Man and Wolverine which come with Samurai sword. Very cool.
I will get those. When is Hawkeye coming do you know. I saw on line there are DC costumes in the works. Green and Hawkman to name a couple
Unless you got the basic sets of costumes you don't get the parts of Hawkeye's costume but if you get the slightly bigger sets you get a 'build a costume' with Hawekeye - old school version.
Hawkman with the wings would be fantastic. I also haven't gotten over being Jazzed to have a Wolverine.
