Description

Rocket Robin Hood leads his "Merry Men", including the strong, dimwitted, and likeable Little John; consummate overeater Friar Tuck (who designs all the Merry Men's weaponry); Robin's two-fisted, red-headed cousin Will Scarlet; Robin's plucky girlfriend Maid Marian; his sharp-witted right-hand man Alan-a-Dale; the scrawny, feisty camp cook Giles (a reformed crook and Gabby Hayes type); and other characters from the classic story of Robin Hood. They live in "the astonishing year 3000" on New Sherwood Forest Asteroid, and are determined to foil the despotic plans of Prince John and his bumbling lackey, the Sheriff of N.O.T.T. (National Outer-space Terrestrial Territories), and other villains such as Dr. Medulla, Manta, Nocturne, and the Warlord of Saturn. Rocket Robin Hood and his people fly in spaceships and use weapons such as "electro-quarterstaffs".
