TOON TITANS

Four more animated super-teams

THE IMPOSSIBLES (1966) When called by boss Big D, HannaBarbera’s rock ’n’ roll trio would spring into crimefighting action – quite literally, in the case of Coil-Man! Completing the line-up: Multi-Man (who could duplicate himself) and Fluid-Man (have a guess).

THE MIGHTY HEROES (1966) Brainchild of Ralph Bakshi (Fritz The Cat/ Wizards), this Terrytoons show was somewhat ironically titled… its heroes included Rope Man (who kept getting tangled up) and Diaper Man – a baby packing a bottle that shot a powerful jet of formula milk!

THE GALAXY TRIO (1967) Sandwiched between segments of Birdman (nowadays an Attorney at Law…) came the adventures of three more HannaBarbera heroes: Vapor Man, Meteor Man and Gravity Girl. These extra-terrestrial lawenforcers patrolled space in their ship, the Condor One.

THE SPACE SENTINELS (1977) Based in a spaceship inside a volcano, this Filmation team was comprised of the superstrong Hercules, the fleet-of-foot Mercury, and Astrea – an African-American woman capable of transforming into any kind of animal.
