Captain Cosmos

Captain Cosmos was the protagonist of the pre-War comic book, radio and television series The Adventures of Captain Cosmos.

Background[edit]

First in command of his fleet, Captain Cosmos traveled through space with his sidekick, Jangles the Moon Monkey, with weapons specialist Stella Skyfire serving as his second in command. He was outfitted with a variety of gear including a raygun, rocket pack, and space suit.[1] In a pre-War radio advertisement, he promotes a secret encoded message hidden in The Legendary Run board game, as well as Sugar Bombs breakfast cereal.[2]

Descriptions[edit]

Captain Cosmos is the "highest" among the heroes in Hubris Comics, due to his battles being in space. He wears a distinctive space suit and with his good partner, Jangles the Moon Monkey, they defend the earth from evil attacks and fight against all kinds of malicious aliens. That being said, compared to Captain Cosmos, everyone prefers to buy merchandise related to the Monkey.Fallout Shelter Online Character Descriptions

    A myth used to scare children who misbehave, the Pint-Sized Slasher is said to appear from a dog kennel at dusk to chase the children around with a Toy Knife. The Pint-Sized Slasher has been the second-best-selling Halloween costume, topped only by Captain Cosmos."

You can also speak into the Intercom (which results in amusing conversation if you haven’t entered the Research Lab yet).
