I am so thrilled with this DVD set. I have a two-year-old and a four-year-old that love superheroes, but I have found it really difficult to find superhero TV shows that are appropriate for young children (many are targeted for older elementary aged children or even adults). I have not watched all of these episodes because we watched them out of order, but so far, I have watched almost all of them, and the only word I have heard that I didn't like was "idiot" (one time). These shows are from the 60's, so they are not nearly as violent, and Wonder Girl's costume is also much more conservative than her more modern counterparts. ;) Most of the "bad guys" are aliens, monsters, or mad scientists, and they are usually put in prison at the end, or they change their ways. None of the good guys have guns. There are three episodes starring The Atom, three with The Flash, three with Green Lantern, three with Hawkman, three with the Justice League of America (pre-Batman, so it's The Atom, The Flash, Green Lantern, Hawkman, and Superman), and three with Teen Titans (Speedy, Kid Flash, Wonder Girl, and Aqualad). Thanks for this great find Amazon! :D

The Justice League and Teen Titans leap onto the small screen for the first time thanks to Filmation!

Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2013

This Warner Brothers' DVD release of two disks forms part of the DC Comics Classic Collection, and comes from the 1967/68 period when Filmation held the license rights to animate DC Comics superheroes on Saturday morning television. The short eighteen episodes included in this set (lasting roughly eight minutes or so each) once formed part of 'The Superman/Aquaman Hour of Adventure', and were sandwiched in-between the second season of 'The New Adventures of Superman', the second season of 'The Adventures of Superboy' and episodes of 'The Adventures of Aquaman'.
The interesting thing for me regarding this DVD set is that these episodes are the first time that somewhat minor DC characters have been used in their own show, or at least in segments of it. These adventures occur before Hanna-Barbera picked up the license to produce the iconic 'Super Friends' series, which ran for many years during the Silver Age of comic books. Granted, as with most other Filmation series at the time and over the years, the animation can seem pretty primitive and flat, plus there is a fairly high count of stock footage utilisation. However, I believe this adds to the overall charm of the series in an era when superhero resurgence was just gaining ground, and young boys especially could experience televised adventures of their favourite comic book characters for the first time on a Saturday morning.
Each character and team receive three episodes each that focus on their adventures, with the official 'as-broadcast' end credits that ran at the end of each episode of the 'Superman/Aquaman Hour of Adventure' included as an extra, made available at the end of the Episode menu. The Atom (Ray Palmer), The Flash (Barry Allen), Green Lantern (Hal Jordan) and Hawkman (Carter Hall) each receive their own three episodes of solo adventures with, usually, either space alien invaders to contend with, or mad scientists and their robotic creations. It is worth remembering that this was a time of the Silver Age that the space race was in full motion and the idea of space flight and life on other planets permeated the media and comic books much more heavily than during past decades. The team episodes (again given three episodes each) consist of the usual alien invader villains from Pluto or Jupiter, for instance, and star both the Justice League of America (starring all the adult heroes partaking in the Filmation Adventures at the time) and the Teen Titans, consisting of Speedy (Roy Harper), Kid Flash (Wally West), Aqualad (Garth) and Wonder Girl (Donna Troy).
These Filmation shorts, especially those concerning the Justice League and the Teen Titans, can definitely be considered an important part of animation history (especially regarding comic book animation), in that this was the first time these characters had been immortalised in animated form, offering viewers a sort of precursor to the upcoming Super Friends series and the later shows making up the DC Animated Universe of the 1990s. Although undeniably quite repetitive and predictable at times, this set is definitely worth some respect as part of the Filmation Adventures that started it all (following Max Fleischer's Superman animated movie shorts of the 1940s of course).
Regarding the DVD features, there are colourful interactive menus on both discs (although Warner obviously made a mistake placing pictures of Hanna-Barbera's Birdman where Hawkman should have been shown - signs of a rushed release!), with additional subtitle and audio options for the English hard-of-hearing and for the Portugese speaking community. Regarding bonus content, there are trailers available to view of some latest releases from the Warner Brothers vault, including Charlie Brown, Popeye & Friends, the Smurfs and the Lego Batman video-game (there are additional trailers played upon loading the second disc into your DVD player of other Warner Brothers animated releases). However, the one hefty extra is a near-forty-minute documentary surrounding the life and work of Fimation's founder Lou Scheimer, titled 'Animation Maverick: The Lou Scheimer Story'. In this, there is interesting discussion of how Lou Scheimer founded and maintained his business empire of Filmation from friends, family, ex-colleagues and fellow admirers within the animation industry.
I would most definitely recommend this DVD set to early animation enthusiasts, to comic book historians and fans of DC's Justice League, if only to explore the animated first outing of some of the comic book industry's most famous and loved characters. As an accompaniment to these shorts, I would highly recommend the first season of 'The New Adventures of Superman', available on DVD (hopefully later seasons will become available in the future) and the two-DVD set of 'The Adventures of Aquaman', which concluded each episode of the 'Superman/Aquaman Hour of Adventure' in 1967 and '68.

60's cartoon classics

Reviewed in the United States on September 16, 2008

Verified Purchase

For those of us who are DC cartoon freaks, this release is wonderful. Before Hanna-Barbara's put forth the Justice League in the seventies Super-Friends, Filmation beat them to it (for the most part) with the Aquaman/Superman Power Hour.

While Batman was tied up elsewhere (the Adam West series), Filmation was able to animate Superman, Aquaman, Atom, Green Lantern, Flash, Hawkman, and the Teen Titans (minus Robin).

Probably one of the greatest strengths of the DVD, is Andy Mangels fifty minute documentary on the Filmation studios. Outside of Hanna/Barbara one of of the animation power houses of the sixties/seventies. That alone recommends this purchase.

Compared to today's animated adventures, the stories may seem awfully tame. Basically, evil villain has plan to conquer America and/ or the world. Hero hears about plot and goes to stop it. After losing a preliminary battle or two, the hero eventually succeeds. That's the basic plot. These stories also lack today's angst or emotional dilemnas' for the hero.

Maybe there's something to be said for that.

I do have one minor quibble with this set. It is missing the original opening Aquaman Superman Power of Adventure Opening theme, which was a fun element all to itself. One can track it down on youtube.com if interested. According to various sources, the Batman 69 animated program might be next for digital release. If so, the DC cartoon classic will be one step further closer to completion.

We'll never see great cartoons like this ever again!!!

Reviewed in the United States on August 14, 2009

These are the cartoons I grew up with in the late sixties. Bright, colorful and optimistic. Very unlike the computer generated ones of today. It was a very innocent time that will never be duplicated again. By today's standards, they would be called simplistic. However, they were the first to attempt the DC characters on a budget for a television audience.

The highlight of this entire package was the documentary of Filmations's Lou Scheimer and Hal Sutherland. They were the men behind an era of cartoons long forgotten. Lou Scheimer built the studio from the ground up into the most popular cartoon studios in the 60's and 70's. This great documentary was produced by Filmation Animation historian, Andy Mangels. It wraps up what otherwise would have been a set of cartoons without any historical frame of reference, like many a DVD cartoon collection. If you are a child of the seventies like myself, or a fan of super hero cartoons, this is a must buy on your want list!

Everything about this release is fun! The package and DVD menus are great and the episodes are fun! I love the fact that DC and Filmation produced these shorts! However, if you're looking for actual, engaging stories featuring DC heroes, check out Justice League Unlimited and Batman: Brave and the Bold.
