Vengeance of the Vikings

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!

Black night hung over Paris, concealing the Death in the sky, and concealing from all men but the Master Spy the horrible fate that awaited them! Out of the dark ages of history, through a thousand tortured years, comes the Vengeance of the Vikings on the screaming wings of Doom!

Death rays, deadly plagues, and other scientific abominations featured at the heart of conflict in many of the G-8 tales penned by Robert J. Hogan. This made G-8 something more than a typical Aviation hero. Even green Martians and resurrected Vikings make an appearance in G-8’s rogues gallery, assuring that his stories were, at least until the future war fought by Popular’s Dusty Ayers, the definition of weird war tales.

Every good hero must have villains that just won’t die, and G-8 was no exception. Foreshadowing characters like Doctor Doom, Steel Mask was an enemy that brought his own iron version of evil to bear on the Battle Aces more than once, hiding his mutilated face with an obviously steel mask. He held G-8 responsible for his affliction, due to America’s Master Spy bringing down a blimp in literal flames. Other villainous types returned as well, including the Raven, Chu Lung, and Grun the Primeval.

None, however, came back as often or with the determined ferocity of G-8’s primary nemesis, Herr Doktor Krueger. Returning again and again over the entire 110 adventures after appearing in the very first story, Krueger truly proved to be a mad genius that could have won the war for his side, were it not for G-8 and His Battle Aces.

Nick Santa Maria brings G-8, Nippy and Bull to thrilling life in their desperate struggle to defeat a nemesis unlike anything they have ever before encountered in Vengeance of the Vikings. Originally published in the August, 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.
