G-8 and His Battle Aces #28 Audiobook
The Blood Bat Staffel
by Robert J. Hogan
Read by Nick Santa Maria
 
 
They called G-8 the Flying Spy. History never recorded his exploits—and for good reason! No one would ever believe World War I was that wild!
 
The little fiend doktor smiled as he spoke, “It is only a matter of time until the cursed Amerikaners and the Allies shall grovel at my feet.” And as though to echo Herr Doktor Krueger’s words, lightning death slashed through the midnight skies. G-8 saw the hand of his arch enemy and hit the sky on wings of blood and death. What supernatural hand had sent these screaming Bat Men down the skies? G-8 gambled with Time and Death for the answer that lay in the haunted forest — as Herr Doktor Krueger walks again — and the devil stalks at his side!
 
G-8 flew into pulp magazines in a rather unique way. Not a super scientist or a shrouded vigilante or even a double pistol wielding mask wearing maniac, G-8 was simply a soldier fighting for his country. This was one of the several aspects of the character that made him stand out from not only the other heroes trying to save the world through Pulp Fiction, but the multitude of pilots flying off the newsstands.
 
Featured in 110 stories in just over a ten year period, G-8 and His Battle Aces came into conflict with terrors that no real soldier in World War One ever confronted. G-8 was literally America’s Master Spy, a man without a given name through his entire Pulp series. G-8 proved in every story to be as skilled in espionage as he was in aviation. A master of disguise, G-8 often undertook missions that took him deep into enemy territory, literally at times into the den of the beasts he fought.
 
Nick Santa Maria brings G-8, Nippy and Bull to thrilling life in their desperate struggle to defeat a deadly nemesis unlike anything they have ever before encountered in ‘The Blood Bat Staffel’. Originally published in the January 1936 issue of G-8 and His Battle Aces magazine.
 
Nick DeGregorio composed the music for the G-8 and His Battle Aces series of audiobooks.
