Captain Triumph

    In 1943 young Michael Gallant dies in explosion set by saboteurs. His identical twin brother Lance Gallant promises to make the saboteurs pay dearly for this murder. Then the ghost of Michael Gallant appears and informs his brother that whenever Lance rubs the T-shaped birthmark on his right wrist, Michael can merge with Lance and become Captain Triumph, who has the powers of flight, virtual invulnerability, invisibility, and super-strength! Pressing it again returns the two brothers to their original states. Often the ghostly Michael spies unseen on criminals and relays these observations to Lance, who then leaps into action against evil. Lance is often assisted by his frequent associates Biff Banks and Kim in his six-year-long career as the protector of justice.
