Right, and don't forget JMS was the mastermind of this series, who would later go on to do Babylon 5.

Jessica Steen hasn't done much since this except bombs and low budget movies (Armaggedon, Judgement, Left Behind: World at War, etc).

Body builder Sven-Ole Thorsen (Hunt for Red October, The Running Man) of course is in this too. And the actor who played "the cigarrette smoking man" on the X-Files is in one episode.

Lord Dredd went on to play "George" on La Femme Nikita the tv show (which I really didn't watch, only caught bits of it, but I saw the movie, which of course was totally different).


IMDB.com lists a "Captain Power: the Beginning" (aka "Against the New Order") which I never saw. Apparently it's a feature length thing that's some episodes stiched together. I wonder if there's any way somebody can release that? A bootleg was also released by someone on VHS that I never saw (but saw advertised on ebay once) called "The Return of Captain Power" or something like that. Apparently it was some kind of fan edit to bring back Pilot.
