Show Notes
This week, I'm reading the seventeenth chapter of the Peter David penned movie novelization of the 1991 Rocketeer film. This chapter takes place in Neville Sinclair's home, where he's kidnapped her, though she ends up figuring out how to get the upper hand, at least temporarily. I don't remember if I usually fast forwarded through this part as a kid, but I think I usually wanted to since I always through Neville was such a creep (and this scene certainly hits different in 2025), but I have to admire Jenny's resourcefulness. There was very limited merchandise put out for the Rocketeer, but I don't believe Jenny got any, which is a shame. I have always thought that she should have her own action figure as well, and perhaps I will make one. I have some possible figures I could use.
