Ken Elliot was a teenager who lived on his own in a low-income neighborhood of an unnamed North American city. He somehow gained the ability to fly, immunity to bullets and above-average senses. He used those abilities to fight crime as Captain Truth. His costume consisted of red boots, red gloves, red trunks, a cape and a big floppy Three Musketeers-type hat which tends to fly off a lot during his one and only adventure.
