The Plastic Man Comedy/Adventure Show
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Plastic Man Comedy/Adventure Show was a Saturday morning cartoon from 1979 to 1981; it was shown right after Super Friends on the ABC Network. It featured various adventures of the DC Comics superhero Plastic Man. This show featured many adventures in different segments: Plastic Man, Baby Plas, Plastic Family, Mighty Man & Yukk, Fangface and Fangpuss, and Rickety Rocket.
The show was created by Ruby-Spears Productions.
[edit] Segments
- "Plastic Man" was about the stretchy superhero himself.
- "Baby Plas" was about Plastic Man and Penny's baby son.
- "Plastic Family" focused on the adventures of all three of the Plastic Family.
- "Mighty Man & Yukk!" was about a tiny Superhero, and his dog who could talk and wears a doghouse-helmet, because he is so ugly that he could destroy practically anything just by looking at it.
- "Fangface and Fangpuss" was about a reluctant werewolf and his baby cousin (who is also a werewolf) and their adventures (Fangpuss was added after Baby Plas was introduced to the main show).
- "Rickety Rocket" was about an artificially intelligent space ship that was created by a group of African-American kid geniuses who solve mysteries in the future, in the vein of Speed Buggy.
