Space Angel
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Space Angel was an animated science fiction television series produced in the United States from early 1962 through 1964. It used the same Synchro-Vox lip technique as Clutch Cargo, the first cartoon produced by the same studio, Cambria Productions.
The series chronicled the adventures of three astronauts who worked for the Earth Bureau of Investigation's Interplanetary Space Force on board the spaceship Starduster: Scott McCloud, also known as "Space Angel" (voiced by Ned Lefebver), electronics expert Crystal (voiced by Margaret Kerry), and pilot/mechanic Taurus (voiced by Hal Smith).
Apart from the use of Synchro-Vox, animation was very limited, but the static panel art by legend Alex Toth was often well-drawn. Story lines were serialized over five (short) episodes. Cliffhangers were sometimes used, as in an episode with McCloud finding a derelict spacecraft beyond the light barrier, looking inside and exclaiming "Oh my God!" Another memorable sequence occurred with the heroes in a best two-of-three gladiator battle, using future visions of Roman combat.
