Syndicated toons from the 60s and 70s, the great toons of the 80s, my old man had comics from the 60s and 70s that I would read over and over....a great decade to be alive.

Alex Toth was an unbelievable force in The Superhero genre. A lot of people don’t know that Alex Toth created very elaborate and detailed drawings and backstories for every character he created while working for Hanna Barbara. Every Superhero, villain, and supporting character had a very detailed blueprint. Alex Toth basically created a Bible of information for all his characters. He also took his work and designs very seriously and wasn’t too happy when Hanna Barbara made parody spoof shows on some of his classic creations like Space Ghost Coast to Coast and Harvey Birdman Attorney at Law. In my opinion he’s one of the greatest artists to contribute to the superhero genre and He’s up there with the likes of Jack Kirby, Steve Ditko, and Alex Raymond. It’s just a shame that most people who’ve seen his work have no idea who he is even though his creations have made him such an inspirational figure.

What in the world, have YOU been sprinkling on YOUR FROSTED FLAKES, while you were watching that TED TURNER inspired TRAIN-WRECK that's known as BOOMERANG?

[@WalterDWormack214]

Addendum! Please accept my most PROFOUND APOLOGIES! I swear! I read your comments regarding Mr. Alex Toth, and TOTALLY MISSED that he was disappointed with how his 'creations', had been so SAVAGELY 'UPGHFUCHTED' by WHO-EVER Mr. Joseph Hanna, and Mr. Wm. Barbera, left in charge at their cartoon factory! I tell you! The 'enlightened' individual(s) who came up with "Space Ghost: Coast-to-Coast" & "Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law", should be savagely "KNEE-CAPPED", FROM the NECK UP! But hey! That's jus' me! You understand!

[@carycomic1954]

True. Of course, it was originally seen as an animated update of the Depression-era radio show "The Adventures of Jack Armstrong the All-American Boy." But, of course, all that changed once H-B and Screen Gems/Columbia went into co-production for its one-and-only season in primetime (circa 1964)! And, while some episodes definitely foretold of things like video cellphones (aka the viewcom) and weaponized e-m-p (aka the Para-power Gun), other stories like "Shadow Of The Condor" (involving a crazy German air ace from WWI) are unfortunately outdated.

I always thought Herculoids was the coolest , most original , "superhero" cartoon ! With such awesome characters , I wish there would have been more development and longer run for this classic !

[@alexkoronec4326]

The reason herculiods was only one season, there was a story. Not just action it was written by Alex Toth

[@kennethpage417]

Might Thor Birdman Space Ghost Herculoids They all should’ve had more longer season and more episodes I like their team ups, when other characters goes to other shows, like a crossover series session

[@jeffreese1828]

@kennethpage417 Man , I like those crossovers , too ! Of your list , there , I like Space Ghost best after The Herculoids . I thought his uniform/costume/suit was great . Also , his Ghost Ship and wrist power bands were really cool . I even thought Jan , Jas , and Blip were decent sidekicks (and I'm not crazy about sidekicks , lol ) One of the neatest things I remember was that "Inviso" power they all had in their power bands , and what a good effect that was (just showing main outlines in white, with no colors , to simulate invisibility. Hell , even the monkey could turn invisible ! Mightor and Birdman were ok , too . I thought the "modern" Harvey Birdman was hilarious . Not superheroes , but one of the GOAT cartoons from "back in the day" , which has held up , imo , is Jonny Quest - a true classic

I loved The Herculoids, Mighty Mightor, Spaceghost, The Impossibles, and Super Friends. These shows are all from before I was born, but because of my mom's work I sometimes had to stay up until late night and they would be on TV, they bring me so many good memories. I don't know a single person my age that watched these growing up but they are truly great.

[@WayneKeen]

A lot of these cartoons came out in 1967 - 1968, which was the sweet spot for me. Note tha Bridman, Space Ghost, Mightor etc. were also re-shown in the late 1970s in the "Hanna-Barbera World of Super Adventure". That timing was great as the memory of my favorites was starting to fade - this show brought them back to life for me, I read the "Future Quest" series in it's entirety. I loved what they did for my favorite, Birdman. In the cartoons, he had a very limited supply of solar energy, and got very weak when it was depleted. The "Future Quest" series and the subsequent books focused on Birdman did not go there. Recharging was mentioned, but that was about it.

[@WayneKeen]

Note that in the "Future Quest" books that focused on Space Ghost, there is only one reference to the (overused in the cartoons) villain removing his power bands, and in that case Metallus indicated that there were safeguards that preventing him for doing that.

[@WayneKeen]

On another unrelated related note, I have thought that music from these series could be packaged in a manner similar to what NFL Films did with their music. Note that I mean something more than the opening/closing credit stuff. I mean the music that makes the action sequences of the cartoons cooler. I wonder if it even exists in someone's vaults any more?

[@WayneKeen]

@Aristophanes Garcia Did you like the way that Future Quest gave characters like Space Ghost and Birdman minor updates that avoided the overused stuff like "I've been away from the rays of the sun too long" and "I can't....reach....my power bands" from the cartoons? I sure did.

[@WayneKeen]

@Aristophanes Garcia Note that in the Future Quest books they also showed that Birman / Ray Randall can dematerialize his wings while keeping his powers

World of Super Adventure was how these shows got to me as they were shown in the early 80s on KTTV 11 in L.A. (just as the new weekday cartoon boom began).

[@yancytrublood5449]

No. He was actually based on the Mighty Thor, Marvel's character (who came out in '62). The studio couldn't get the rights worked out for Thor, and they wound up tweaking enough details so that Mightor wasn't a total rip off of Thor.

Very cool--I remember about half of these series, probably because I was born in '68, so I caught mostly reruns in the 70s. I was going to say, "What about Thundarr the Barbarian?" but looking closer, that was a Ruby-Spears production. They were former Hanna-Barbera writers, so at least they're related. One cool thing: many of the characters in that show were designed by Jack Kirby, and there is the stunning painting they use of Earth in the far future after the moon was torn in half and reformed. Great stuff!

A few 60/70s Hanna-Barbera super hero toons you forgot to honorable mention: Young Sampson; Hong Kong Phooey; and Wonder Wheels. I used to get excited when thee shows would pop up on _USA's Cartoon Express_ and later on _Boomerang._ H-B *also* did some kick ass versions of Marvel Characters (The Fantastic 4).

The theme music got your heart pumping and still brings a smile to my face. Lived intros of Mightor and Sampson/Goliath. ;-)

Hong Kong Phooey was a true classic that didn't get the attention it deserved. I loved that show!

[@Tarathathe77wookiee]

Hong Kong Phooey, number one super guy! Hong Kong Phooey, quicker than the human eye!!

Music always played a huge part in cartoons, that’s why I still love it…

I'm a 50 yr old kid who can't have enough of cartoons. Love them! It's a shame even as adults people can't relate these to reality as every fiction work is actually reality fantasized.

Almost all I watch is cartoons

Space Ghost x Green Lantern was a must have crossover for me.

[@argentumsurfer4155]

There is a comic book special for that.. I am waiting for Birdman x Hawkman x Blue Falcon story though.. Dynomutt vs Inspector Gadget would be cool..

Has anyone ever noticed in the live version of Disney's Alladin there were a lot of times when Genie looked like Shazzan?

Two giants of animation, they were apart of my life many year.

John Quest show made kids feell just as intelligent as adults.

[@Carloshll726]

I watched Hanna-Barbera heroes on cable TV a lot back in the 1980s!!!

[@dancingnature]

Jonny Quest was a favorite !

[@dannytarver4533]

These cartoons are legendary, I miss them so much. If someone bought them back I'm sure they would collect big.

[@clutchfrog262]

I remember growing up and watching just about all these cartoons back in the day. This was an era of great toons compared to the garbage that came after them.

[@bobsebring2819]

IMO, the 60s were the best time for Hanna Barbara cartoons. The 60 s were the greatest decade for Hanna Barbara. I had a feeling you'd be leaving out a few. Sinbad Jr, Space Kiddettes, and Young Samson & Goliath. Thanks for the upload sure brought memories

Race Bannon was basically Lee Marvin!😎

[@davidjackson1591]

Jeff Chandler look him up and you will be amazed by the look

[@jz23gaming17]

Man I remember, watching these shows, fun times.

[@michaelchoman1625]

I always thought that The Herculoids was the closest thing that Hanna-Barbera ever got to the Toho 1960s Godzilla films at the time.

無茶苦茶懐かしい。子供の頃12チャンネル（現テレビ東京）で見た、ユーバード、スーパースリー、シャザーンはハッキリ覚えてます。

[@tonymickens8803]

Johnny Quest was the Shit back in the 60's, Also the Only cartoon where people Actually get Killed!

[@Oddlogical]

I was a big fan of these shows growing up! It was a lot of fun to watch this video and experience a rush of nostalgia! Thank you!

[@eldersprig]

Jonny Quest was the best. Realistic animation of people, machines, etc. plus the cartoon dog.
