Tentang Penulis
Philip Francis Nowlan (1888–1940) was a seminal figure in the early development of American science fiction literature. He is best recognized for his creation of the iconic space opera character, ‘Buck Rogers’, who first appeared in Nowlan’s novella ‘Armageddon 2419 A.D.’ published in the August 1928 issue of the pulp magazine, Amazing Stories. Nowlan, a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania and a former U.S. Army atmosphere and aviation expert, translated his knowledge into a literary career that significantly influenced the space adventure genre. His contribution led to the prolific and expansive Buck Rogers franchise, encompassing radio serials, comic strips, and later television adaptations. Nowlan’s innovative narrative techniques, and the fusion of futurology with action-driven plots, are evident in ‘The Prince of Mars Returns’, an interplanetary romance and sequel to ‘Armageddon 2419 A.D.’, which further explored themes of technological advancements and socio-political commentary. Though less well-known than his Buck Rogers works, ‘The Prince of Mars Returns’ continues to exemplify Nowlan’s imaginative storytelling and his profound impact on the fabric of science fiction narratives. His legacy endures as a cornerstone of the genre, inspiring countless writers and artists who followed in his footsteps.
