Origin[]

G-8 was an aviator and a former WWI spy whose true identity was never revealed. His comrades in flight were known as the Battle Aces. They were Bull Martin, a superstitious man who flew an airplane numbered 7, and Nippy Weston, a short man who flew an airplane numbered 13. G-8 and his Battle Aces were also aided by G-8's manservant Battle and the pilot's nurse girlfriend.

G-8 and his Battle Aces often dealt with supernatural and science fiction inspired gimmicks created/employed by the Germans enemies such as Herr Doktor Krueger, Herr Konig, and Herr Dr. Mollfuss. Some examples would be Bat-planes, dissolving gas, a chemical that changed skin color, an eagle-shaped balloon w/claws, Plague spread by flying insects, a giant skeleton, undead German aces, an invisble plane, Panther-men, and a giant plane eating spider.
