Retro 51 "THE ROCKETEER!" 40th Anniversary Collection | First Flight | RRR-2260
Brought to life in 1982 by writer / artist Dave Stevens, The Rocketeer is an exciting and beautifully illustrated homage to the Saturday matinee serial heroes from the 1930s through the 1950s. In 1938 Los Angeles, Cliff Secord, a local racing pilot and barnstormer, discovers a rocket pack hidden by two gangsters fleeing the police. When he decides to take it for a spin, his life is turned upside down – in more ways than one! Cliff's pulpy adventures are set in Los Angeles and New York, and Stevens gave them a retro, nostalgic feel influenced by the King of the Rocket Men and Commando Cody movie serials, as well as pinup diva Bettie Page.

First Flight
– Relive Cliff Secord’s fateful first flight as The Rocketeer with this classic twist-top rollerball pen. Panels from the comic wrap the barrel, protected with a gloss finish and accented with a stonewashed brass trim. The famous “Target” image from the Pacific Presents #1 back cover adorns the top disc. Each pen is numbered on the top ring and packaged in a graphic tube featuring a collage of pages straight from the comic book!
The current picture is a stock image and it is meant as visual aid only. The first flight pen is the middle pen shown in the image. Please buy with confidence as we are an official Retro 51 dealer!
