- Edmond Hamilton began his writing career in the early days of pulp science fiction. His first story, "The Monster of Marmuth", appeared in Weird Tales, and was very reminiscent of H.P. Lovecraft. Soon, though, his style changed, and he focused on the "super-science" stories popularized by E. E. Smith and John Campbell. In 1940, pulp editor Leo Marguiles and Hamilton created the Captain Future character, who was the lead character in a short running (17 issues) self-titled magazine. The character would later resurface as an anime character.
Unlike many of the pioneers of pulp sci-fi, Hamilton continued to write stories well into the 1970s. His later work began to focus on more introspective topics, and are some of his best. He also became a comic book writer, scripting many issues of "Superman" comics. While not well known today, Hamilton's work was a definite influence on many writers and filmmakers today. His influences can be seen in "Star Trek", "Star Wars", and "Babylon 5". - Dick Baron was born on 9 May 1918 in Los Angeles, California, USA. He was an actor, known for December Bride (1954).
