The Super Powers Team: Galactic Guardians
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Super Powers Team: Galactic Guardians is an American animated television series about a team of superheroes which ran from 1985 to 1986. It was produced by Hanna-Barbera and is based on the Justice League and associated comic book characters published by DC Comics.
In the fall of 1985 the final version of Hanna-Barbera's Super Friends premiered. This show returned to a more conventional, consistent and authentic line-up for the Justice League of America, with a strong focus on Cyborg and Firestorm.
The Super Friends were once again headquartered at the Hall of Justice in Metropolis, and battled such familiar foes as Darkseid, Lex Luthor, and Scarecrow. The Super Powers Team: Galactic Guardians is considered one of the most faithful TV adaptations of DC Comic superheroes.[1] Except where noted as a short, each episode was 30 minutes long.
The Super Powers Team: Galactic Guardians lasted only one season on ABC until the end of the Hanna-Barbera's 12-year run of the Super Friends on September 30, 1986.
