Hey, I used to have those albums. That was one of the origins of my fascination with OTR.

Too bad this show never had a guest appearance by the weird Dr. Strange.

I never sent away for those albums. Captain Company got enough of my allowance as it was.

Captain Company got a lot of my money as well. Sadly they kept the money and never sent the merchandise. To be fair however, Castle of Frankenstein and Comics Journal never delivered on their orders either. It was a learning experience.

I mostly sent away for bundles of back issues from all three of those companies, and mostly got what I ordered.

Sooner or later!

Also, didn't Firesign Theatre do something with this character?

Not all that familiar with the Firesign Theatre, I'm way overdue to check them out.

Another reference to the Strange Dr. Weird--I'm betting it's an actual sound bite from the original program--occurs in this song by Abney Park: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yyZK7MaHKZ0
