  • Yes this show rocked in so many ways, I hated that they ended the show by killing the main characters but I guess is better than to leave a show in eternal limbo.

  • I loved this show! It was awesome, techie for its time (1994), and was a unique take on a superhero. Now alot of sites go on and on about how it's an "african american superhero". I could care less about someone's skin tone, but a PARALYIZED, DISABLED, WHEELCHAIRED guy turned superhero thanks to technology, now that is just awesome. I wish I could find this show, and I wish more people remembered and appreciated it.

  • thank you very much friend! was not m.a.n.t.i.s. what I was looking (looks like a very good series), but thanks to the link you sent me I could find the video for "super force" seeking! thanks again! I lasted 5 years looking for this series!

  • My dad and I LOVED this show, wish they either reaired it or hurry up and bring it out on DVD as the fans demand

  • I was having vague memories of commercials of this show and had to search long enough to find it...guess I'll give it a watch since I was too busy watching POWER RANGERS back then

  • I thought this was the greatest show of all time when I was 7 years old.

  • @SunfireRanger I can't wait!

    Actually, I guess I don't have to now... nobody tells me these things! XD

  • japierdole

  • @Ibringthetruth1 thats a really racist comment!!

  • Rip off of EXO-MAN.

    Who believes blacks can build shit?

    They're busy playing basketball and trying to get into nightclubs.

  • M.A.N.T.I.S. was the first black superhero that originated on television. Marvel's black superheros, The Black Panther & The Falcon have yet to have been seen on the small and big screen. The show ended too quickly. Carl Lumbly was the protagonist on Cagney and Lacey. He had more to do on M.A.N.T.I.S.

  • It was a pretty decent concept, and the suit had some promise. I never knew Sam Raimi (Spiderman) was involved in development of this show.
