Space Tokasatsu Series: Captain Ultra was a television series to come out of Japan, not surprising considering how zany the Japanese are. The story follows Captain Ultra Kyaputen Urutora and his sidekick, Huck the Robot. The show only lasted for 24 episodes, but because of its kookiness, it gained a major cult following. The story’s creator though, was an American science fiction writer named Edmond Hamilton, who was famous for his strange and interesting books and characters.
