Marvel Superheroes Channel 9 became the first NYC based TV station to air these cartoons, which were based on Marvel comic book's most popular Superheroes: Capt. America, The Incredible Hulk, Ironman, The Mighty Thor and Prince Namor, The Sub Marinier. Sandy Becker was the voice of Capt. America. The show was set against the backdrop of an orbiting space station and hosted by a guy in a silvery spacesuit with a flowing black cape, known as Captain Universe. Captain Universe would engage his visitors to his spacestation in games, craftmaking, science experiments, stories, read viewer mail, informational segments and interview guest performers and personalities in between the reruns of the cartoons. To this day, I still don't know the name of the fellow who played Captain Universe, his acting credits or what has become of him.
"The
actor who played Captain Universe, if memory serves me correctly,
was NY area's Clay Cole."
