Dunno why, but I enjoyed the airship scenes and battles. Yes, yes....I know about the stings, crudeness re special effects, but somehow, I enjoyed these ships...both the inner city and Kane ships. Some of the interplanetary scenes with the larger ships are of interest, and the underside view is well..odd...in some cases, the thing looks like the bottom of a Proctor Silex TM iron. But overall, I enjoyed the ships, and the various futuristic type devices.

As a kid though, for some reason I found Killer Kane's amnesia helmet a bit frightening...no, maybe disturbing is a better word. Anthony Warde was great as bad guy Kane.

We yak about this now and then, but this serial has to be tops in a cheat episode. Buddy jumps out of window, then following episode, he does not as I recall.

Overall though, a good serial.
