On Episode 138 of the RETROZEST podcast, Curtis celebrates the 45th Anniversary of the premiere of Battle of the Planets! This is an American adaptation of the Japanese anime series Science Ninja Team Gatchaman (1972). Of the 105 original Gatchaman episodes, 85 were used in the Battle of the Planets adaptation, produced by Sandy Frank Entertainment. Assisting Curtis in this endeavor is FRANKLIN COFOD, the editor who was responsible for overseeing the small editing staff for Sandy Frank Entertainment, as well as doing much of the editing himself. Following Battle of the Planets, he was able to expand his scope to include production, and he acted as head director on the series Voltron, Defender of the Universe and Saber Rider and the Star Sheriffs. Also joining the discussion is Author and BotP Historian JASON HOFIUS. Jason is the co-author (with George Khoury) of G-Force Animated: The Official Battle of the Planets Guidebook, as well as the creator of the exhaustive website BattleOfThePlanets.info. Jason was hired by Sandy Frank Entertainment as merchandising director and in-house specialist for the BotP property. You may buy a copy of Jason's BotP guidebook on the homepage of the website. Jason also assisted George Khoury with the writing of Age Of TV Heroes: The Live-Action Adventures Of Your Favorite Comic Book Characters.
