Hal Sutherland eventually had his billing mention in a "signature" and Norm Prescott and Lou Scheimer had theirs in a rotating circle.

This cartoon series was the second of 3 series Filmation Associates did,

in assoc. with ABC and 20th Century Fox TV.which included "JOURNEY

TO THE CENTER OF THE EARTH" and "THE HARDY BOYS". this

version of "FANTASTIC VOYAGE" was well made,considering Filmation's

limited animation budget at that time-and years before its mega accomplish-

ment,"FLASH GORDON" in 1979. this cartoon series,which debuted on 9/14/68

was one of three Filmation series that fall-"THE BATMAN-SUPERMAN HOUR"

and THE ARCHIES

@kidstl Good point about the bionic eye. Must be the same kind of scientists they have on Star Trek original series. They have warp drive, teleporters, food creation out of nothing but poor Capt' Christopher Pike gets stuck with that shitty "wheelchair" with only ONE blinking light to communicate with. WTF, Stephen Hawking could kick his ass (if he stll has one) in a jousting match!

I did get one episode that somebody uploaded. I had killer butterflies. I can't find it now, perhaps it's been removed.

I downloaded it, so if you're really interested. I could upload it somewhere you could check it out.
