Super Friends Introduction 1980

[Tenmi11ion]

You think i named myself black vulcan?! hell no, i wanted to go by super volt... but black vulcan was aqua man's idea so i said oh yeah mabey we should just call you white fish?!

[Nakedolive]

@Tenmi11ion LOL, why is this kind of accepted bigotry so prevelent today in 2012?! I'm so glad you have brought this out in the open even further. dc comics have even decided to finally change a huge mural in their office as you walk in that has only two or three non-white characters(out of something like a 100 characters) and one very grossly over exaggerated asain character. But it's been there for a loooooong time, doesn't that say alot about the company!

How come The Wonder Twins and the space monkey were kicked-out?

[MrSchultzstaffel]

Oh my God! What the hell is this in the intro here? An "oil monster" that rises up out of an oil spill from a tanker in the ocean? Holy shit...shades of "Captain Planet" here already! I knew that there was gonna' be some politically correct trouble when I saw Black Vulcan, Apache Chief and Samuri taking center-stage. We sure as hell don't want to be saved by racist white heros when we're in trouble now do we? lol The demise of a great show...political correctness run amock!

[HllywHulk91]

Ok, Black Vulcan, CLEARLY could've been the mascot for the San Diego Chargers.

[8MKWeb8]

I feel sad because I found out about Apache Chief and Black Vulcan from Harvey Birdman. T_T Oh well.

[Darklancy]

Cant belive that hanna barbera wasnt making Tom and jerry episodes since 1960 - till 90s because of chuck so they picked it up

[Markel1970A]

Were Black Vulcan and Samaura and Apache Chief just added to make this team more diverse?

[jayce79]

I didn't know Black Vulcan and Samurri were in 80? Thought they came a little later? Guess I remember it wrong.

[eagleofmiami]

DC comics Rule!!!!

[JMFabianoRPL]

What the heck is the Big W doing at the beginning of this???

[NepperCat]

@JMFabianoRPL

Its the old 70's Warner Brothers logo, Warner owns DC comics.

[JMFabianoRPL]

I know, but that logo was usually used to open MOVIES.

[NepperCat]

It was the Warner imprint on a majority of their releases at the time. I remember it being at the end of alot of the old school animated cartoons produced by Warner back in the day.

[ClassicTVMan81]

@NepperCat

I wonder if Warner Bros. continued this practice by inserting their 1984 "Shield of Staleness" movie logo at the beginning.

[NepperCat]

The old school "W" orange on Black logo lasted til sometime in the early to mid 80's. It was completely abandoned by the 90s though.

[ClassicTVMan81]

@NepperCat

The "Big W" was discontinued in 1984. The "Shield of Staleness," a return of their 1948 shield logo, showed up in movies in June 1984 and on TV in September 1984.

[RyKnow404]

lol uuuuh for warner bros.?

[Astraldragon1]

this is great finally someone has put up this intro plus the intro with El Dorado for the 1981 and 82 season. the seasons after the 82 season were the last 2 seasons that had Firestorm in them.

[ClassicTVMan81]

Would you have the original 1980 closing credits to this incarnation of the SF legacy?
