The
bravehearted Commando Cody, "Sky Marshal of the Universe," rockets into action
to save the earth in this classic 12 episode sci-fi extravaganza. A string of
mysterious bombings striking at our nation's defense systems precipitates the
call for the invincible Cody (George Wallace), who's equipped with a
state-of-the-art flying suit and space ship. Tracing the source of the attacks
to the moon, he travels there and encounters the nefarious Retik (Roy
Barcroft), ruler of an advanced civilization. The moonmen are cultivating an
atomic substance called lunarium which will power their awesome weaponry in
their bid to conquer the Earth. The chilling ray-gun assaults, nightmarish
volcanic eruptions and out-of-this-world conclusion make this a sensational
galactic adventure. One of Republic Pictures' most engaging serials, Radar Men
From The Moon demonstrates the studio's remarkable creativity as well as its
resourcefulness. This cliffhanger incorporates footage from their previous
chapterplays Darkest Africa (1936), King Of The Rocket Men (1949) and The
Purple Monster Strikes (1945), the latter of which also featured Roy Barcroft
