Before Star Trek. Tom Corbett, Space Cadet. An Optimistic Rocket Series
A Correction. I state in this video that there is only one fanfic online (or rather that I had only found one). Since then I have found this page that contains a few more which seem to be mostly from the nineties. http://www.solarguard.com/sofans.htm
The fanfiction I mentioned in the video can be found here. Check it out. https://archiveofourown.org/works/14333415
I've written individual reviews of all of the episodes of the radio show and all the books here. https://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/reviewing-and-discussing-the-entire-tom-corbett-space-cadet-franchise.822647/

► http://tomswiftfanfiction.thehudsons.com/TS-Yahoo/author-TH-RickBrant.html Here are the books. They are also scattered around online. Scroll down past the Rick Brant books to reach them
► http://www.solarguard.com/tccomic.htm And the comics are here. The comics are very different in tone from the rest of the series involving aliens and a lot of other fantastical elements that do not appear in the rest of the series. Honestly, I wonder if the comic writer had even watched the show. Although they are pretty good in their own right they definitely don't belong in the same universe as the rest of the franchise.
►http://www.solarguard.com/tcstrip1.htm There was also a Newspaper Strip very little of which I could find online.
