Darkwing duck was awesome… still best intro of a cartoon imho… good storys too[/quote]

LOL! Loved that one as a kid. Hey, I remember him being trained as a ninja of sorts. Do you think Chris Nolan stole that idea from there? Maybe he’s a closet DD fan

Now THAT was one badass show!

No, no, no. They had their own toy line and everything. I must have been a kid at just the right time because I loved that shit. They were all made out of mostly metal…like cyborgs. I had the silver eagle. I must have snuck that thing to school every day of the school year.

I realize now why we were the bastards of product placement.

We didn’t spend as much time playing video games.

We had more imagination. I spent way more time playing outside with my He-Man and Silverhawks than I did inside eating Cheetos and adding another 40lbs to my gut.

Toys like that can’t sell on that level today.

Who the fuck goes outside anymore?

It’s funny it wasn’t until I moved away from my friends and my parents bought me a nintendo that I went from big kid to fat kid

You are on to something here. I remember working diligently for hours trying to perfect the tunnels in the dirt pile out back to run my Hot Wheels through. We never got to just hang out and watch TV.

We were talking about concussions recently and I realized that at 11-12 years old it was normal for me to jump on my bike and ride it 5 miles across town (one way)to baseball practice several times a week. Those bike rides add up to 30-40 miles a week and that doesn’t count popping wheelies and screwing around. I don’t even know any kids that are allowed to ride that far away from home…

I put it for comparison :

Oh wow. The Catalan version is definitely better.

Jap version is better.

Even Disney had some badass cartoons. 90s>80s. Fact.

Yep…just a bit more exercise like bike riding and walking to the comic book shop and stopping at one can of Coke and not having a quart adds up over time and made me NOT the fat kid in school.

It just occurred to me how fucking lame we were as kids in the 80’s. I have recently watched both the He-man cartoon and the Superfriends…and both look like the were written for 3 year olds today. I remember watching that shit in grade school.

What the hell was wrong with us?

Did we really need every villain to explain what he was about to do before he did it…as well as the heroes?

yeah, that’s a real quote. A fucking BAT SKI LIFT…and we never questioned it.

I mean, while [quote]“Wonder Woman: Batman, give me your Bat-Saw.”[/quote] could potentially lead to some kinky mental imagery, this shit was corny as hell and treated us like we were idiots.

Were we idiots?

LOL, He-Man was even worse.[/quote]
Look what you did you spoke it’s name and it’s back

kevinm1, I remember those old 60’s Marvel cartoons, it made me mad after watching them. DC had superfriends and was far superior to anything Marvel had done, it wasn’t until the 80’s that Marvel started to get it’s act together on animated features.

Then DC came out with the 89 Batman while Marvel sucked like no other. Even Image comics surpassed Marvel with the Spawn movie.

Does anyone remember the original Captain America move from the 80’s?

You miss this one with the Italian Red Skull? Oh yes I remember

Marvel started getting better with Spiderwoman in the late 70’s, it even guest starred Spiderman once or twice
