G-8 and His Battle Aces #45 Audiobook

Flight from the Grave

by Robert J. Hogan

Read by Nick Santa Maria

They called G-8 the Flying Spy. History never recorded his exploits—and for good reason! No one would ever believe World War I was that wild!

Deathless men from another world who move like machines against a helpless human race! G-8 saw the graves give up their Dead, that they might walk and fight again upon this mortal earth. He saw, too, the strength of these creatures who had already died, and could therefore not die again. Zombies! — with a terrible power that mere man could not match — flying against the Allies to write their deeds in Blood! — these are the reanimated enemies that G-8 must fight — this is the test of an airman’s courage! G-8 sought to stem this tide of Horror, but you cannot kill the Dead!

Wanting to ensure G-8 and His Battle Aces stood out from previous aviation tales, Popular Publications’ Harry Steeger and series creator Robert J. Hogan agreed that the new series would include elements of the fantastic. This ranged from merely super-scientific death rays to the unabashedly supernatural manifestations. Nothing was taboo in G-8.

Driving home to New Jersey from Manhattan, Hogan passed through the Holland Tunnel. While in traffic, he worked out the details of G-8’s first wild adventure. He named his hero after a Colorado ranch where Hogan worked one summer. G-8 never had another name. His wingmen, Bull Martin and Nippy Weston, were modeled on a pair of real-life flyboys named Bull Nevin and Nippy Westover. Together, along with assistance from G-8’s skilled manservant appropriately named Battle, these three men would save the world from multiple airborne monstrosities for over ten years.

Nick Santa Maria brings G-8, Nippy and Bull to thrilling life in their desperate struggle to defeat a deadly nemesis unlike anything they have ever before encountered in ‘Flight from the Grave’. Originally published in the June 1937 issue of G-8 and His Battle Aces magazine.

Nick DeGregorio composed the music for the G-8 and His Battle Aces series of audiobooks.
