Captain Action: Storyline
Captain Action is a man of many identities, but the original attempt to provide the public with an insight into his story provided a different image than the action figure. In the 1968 comic Captain Action had the real identity of Clive Arno and possessed magic coins that could that could be used to provide him with special powers. He had found these magical coins during an archeological dig in a mysterious buried city.
The action figures were able to turn into heroes like Spiderman, Superman, Captain America, The Lone Ranger, and Batman. This ability was absent in the Captain Action comic book series because DC Comics did not have permission to recreate these heroes because they were owned by other corporations like Marvel Comics.
Captain Action was soon joined by other characters. The most important being Dr Evil; this is Captain Action’s mortal enemy who was once his father-in-law. Captain Action is not expected to go up against this devious and mad enemy alone though and so Action Boy entered the fray; this new hero might be on the young side but he is able to turn into Superboy.
In 2008 Captain Action returned to comic books with a series published by Moonstone. In this series our hero is part of A.C.T.I.O.N. directorate. The members of this organization are tasked with fighting off the Red Crawl. Captain Action did not want to become a hero, but when his father winds up dead it is left for Clive to fill his father’s shoes. The world had believed that the Red Crawl had gone away, but they were wrong and now Captain Action has to stop these dangerous Aliens.
