These cartoons are what made me a proud member of the M.M.M.S. and fan of Marvel for 1966-1972. Cheap animation but I loved how they used the art from the books.
It's kind of an interesting (if unintended) foreshadowing of Ed Brubaker's version of Bucky as Cap's wetwork guy. He's the character in charge of moral ambiguity, apparently.
THAT's what _Iron Man 3_ was missing! A little robot that jiggles up and down! Hopefully AIM comes back in the MCU so that this oversight can be corrected.
Its daddy Zemo who has the mask glued on, the younger modern day Zemo has his face disfigured but can remove the mask and I'm pretty sure that's who MCU Zemo is.
Just a quick note about that "Krunch punch" clip (31:52): Based on what you've shown, I'm pretty sure the crunch sound is supposed to be for when Cap grabs Zemo's wrist in his steel-trap-like grip, hence the crunch. If you watch closely you will even see that it... syncs... up with Cap's super-fluid animation. This isn't to say that the sound effect isn't goofy as all heck, only that in this context it at least makes a lot more sense.
Nostalgia...a powerful emotion. I watched this show religiously as a kid and I loved every minute of it. Kind of framed my love of comics...I wouldn't change a thing about the cartoon.
No one forgot about those cartoons. The younger generation just never knew it happened. Some of us were lucky to see the cartoons re-aired in the early 80s.
I was 10 or 12 at the first run. I'll never forget how excited I was to see this stuff on tv. Syndicated in Los Angeles on local channel 9, KHJ. We could only find it again randomly for the next few years. They were so bad they were good. Beautifully acted and inspired but poorly executed. Equally exciting and cringe-worthy efforts.
I actually watched those cartoons as a boy in the 1970s. They were the highlight of my day. I never forgot those cartoons. I thought they were amazing and I think Disney + should have them.
I'm with you dude being in my late f ifties this was the only time we really got to watch Marvel heroes in action, something these jaded twenty and thirty somethings just don't get
So cool read ur reply while on way home and now watching the Captain America series . Too bad I don't own the Iron man also theme song was also pretty cool
@@wilfredmack3665 to be fair, things just aren’t made like this anymore. They are incredibly charming though and I certainly appreciate them for what they are.
I remember these cartoons playing weekday afternoons in the mid-sixties. The best thing about them were the theme songs. Even as a second grader I thought they were cheesy, but like all cartoon addicts I took what I could get.
I vividly remember this show! Loved, Loved, Loved it! The Hulk opening song was my favorite and I still catch myself singing it as well as Cap's song. Think it played on KHJ-TV 9 back in the day.
It’s just too bad the Hulk has been treated like a serial beater in recent years. “AND I CAN CONTROL MY ANGER *INFINITELY MORE THAN YOU!!!!!!!”* She(-Hulk) COULD. Before she became a raging misandrist like other MCU Phase 4 heroines (Captain Marvel, Jane Foster (only in Thor 4) and Kamala aka Ms. Marvel) while making the men weaker than water which is unfair to both sexes. But I digress.
I now know that all of my suffering in life was simply caused by the sheer lack of a little robot that jiggles up and down. Thank you Scott. Now I finally understand the true feeling of joy.
Scott, you gotta stop getting depressed by your video count. You're not a TH-cam vlog channel. You're a documentary filmmaker who goes into enough detail to let anyone understand you. Each video you make is more akin to publishing an article in a magazine than posting a video online. Love ya. Keep it up!!
Seriously, my ex-boyfriend is a twitch streamer and his streams don't even get a single viewer. If he was as whiney as Scott about the view count, he would have committed toaster bath by now. Ten years streaming to nobody would take its toll. Scott needs to man up.
@@kendallcuddles you know he has chronic depression right? And it's not like he's so whiney about it, this is the first time he even mentioned it(as the beginning of a joke) in a while

A similar thing happened while I was playing the Marvel Superheroes RPG at a friend's house and we mentioned Iron Man: his father walked into the room singing the Iron Man intro song from the Marvel Superheroes Cartoon.
This is inversely related, but I used to work with a guy named Kevin who is in his late 50's, and it took tons of willpower not to scream "Kevin!", then fake faint. There was another guy named Scott and it was Cyclops reference hijinks galore. "Jean!"

Despite what you say, about the almost zero impact or the difficulty of remembering these animated series, here in my country, Chile, I remember seeing them for the first time in 1980. And to this day that generation comments on them and remembers them with affection . A friend even began to compare the changes in the animated adaptations of those comics that inspired what you mention. A big hug and thanks for the excellent video!!!
I grew up on these Marvel cartoons in the 1960s and the title songs were so memorable that a couple of them made their way to the current Marvel movies.
I'm old as dirt so I remember these well from my kid days, and fondly. Iron Man's theme was my fave: "Tony Stark, makes you feel, he's a cool exec with a heart of steel..." with that jazzy sound.
I watched them as a kid and can even remember the order they were shown during the week and Cap was shown on Mondays. I found them complete on DVD rather easily just for an occasional nostalgia trip...
Yes by all means do the rest of the series! I remember watching these in syndicated reruns when I was a kid in the 80's. They were probably, along with the Spider-Man cartoon from that era, my first exposure to Marvel. Even as a kid I could see the sub-par-ness (?) of the animation, but they did introduce me to some wonderful characters.
These were one of the coolest series back in the day. The use of Comic book animation or drawings and the narrative that went along with the Character dialogue was what made it crazy good in a Campy way. Plus if you were a Kid who was a Major Marvel or simply major comic book Fan you'll be happy with whatever was out there whatever the form it came in. Thiis was Fan Heaven for me plus the BIG BONUS INTRO FROM THE MAN HIMSELF: STAN LEE. EXCELSIOR!!! ❤❤❤

31:13 “NOW I’LL TRAP YOU FOREVER - WITH ZEMO’s adhesive” *FIRING SOUND* “...you missed” “no he didn’t. it hit my knee. i’m pinned to the ground helpless” This show is so full of charisma.
I happen to like these. They're 1960s silver age comics that come to life. I also like the voices behind the heroes. Especially Thor. He sounds just like Richard Burton. And to this day, it's still the voice I hear when reading a Thor comic. Anyway, they really shouldn't be hated, nor forgotten. They're nostalgic; if anything else. And most importantly, they were made during The Marvel Age of Comics. That; and you've got some beautiful Jack Kirby artwork to behold & enjoy..😉 p.s. Scott, I happen to have the entire run of these cartoons on DVD. And there're no skips or pauses. A wonderful addition to my superhero movie library.
As kids, we had a VHS tape with the episode of "The Sleeper Shall Awake" on it, which is what led me to this video. It also had a spiderman episode on the same tape but I can't remember much about it other than the theme tune (who doesn't remember that) and the fact that spidey ran out of buildings to swing from and had to hitch on top of a semi truck. It’s a shame these episodes aren't more easily available, despite how naff they are in the modern era.
This was a gas. I need the others now too. "Doc Bruce Banner belted by gamma rays turned into the Hulk *ain’t he unglamoray!* wreckin’ the town with the power of a bull ain’t no monster clown who is as lovable As ever lovin’ Hulk! *HULK* "
@@staceymeans134 there are several sites that say “belted”, including this one...nitcentral.philfarrand.com/cgi-bin/discus/board-auth.cgi?lm=1372719002&file=/110/30560.html There’s a commenter that tries to correct it to “pelted” but apparently changed his mind after listening to the theme.
I watched these as a kid, and I've had occasion to try and tell my kids, and grand-kids, about them (and their theme songs). Thank you so much for re-visiting my memories. And, as always, thank you so very much for the video.
I remember seeing these when I was a kid. They might have been on Channel 11 from New York, which we got in South Jersey when we got cable (you know, the kind with the box with all the buttons connected to the TV with a wire). The theme songs have stayed in my head ever since, and I remember being touched by the one with Cap's wartime girlfriend (not named as Peggy in the cartoon). Between that and Nickelodeon's Video Comics (a very early Nick show that moved the camera from panel to panel of DC comics while actors read the dialogue), I got a pretty good grounding in Silver Age comics at the age of about nine.
This generation has absolutely no idea what it was for a young boy on those years to see their favorite comic book heroes on those TV shows. I still love them all. I wished they were available today on DVD or blu ray. Also they used to have the amazing opening for the show featuring all 5 Super Heroes in a better animation clip that I think someone was able to download here on TH-cam.
I was a kid when The Marvel Superheroes premiered on Channel 9 in New York. These cartoons were great and as far as the animation goes, the technology was not there like today so it was a little limited but still fun and entertaining.
Scott, thanks so much for this Captain America video and also, the one on Thor. My friends and I remember watching these cartoons back in the Stone Age, when we were teenagers. We thought the animation and dialog were so bad, they were great ... they ranked alongside Clutch Cargo and Colonel Bleep for minimal animation. As primitive and corny as the cartoons were, they are unforgettable and should be made available. Look forward to your episodes on The Hulk, Iron Man, and the Submariner. BTW, I could have sworn I also watched the Spiderman cartoons along with the others. But, maybe I'm conflating things. Keep up the great work!
I can tell you that this series was broadcast on WXON in Detroit on a weekday strip in the early 1980s. In addition, the Hulk episodes were broadcast in Canada in the 2000s on Teletoon.
@@NerdSyncProductions Dude we LOVED these as a kid, maybe Disney has buried them but just search TH-cam and read about people's desire for the '67 Spider-Man clips be made widely available
Ch. 20 ? Weirdest thing. It came on early in the morning on weekends, pretty sure it was broadcast from Ontario as well because Mr.Wizard would come on right afterwards. How I learned that most shows on early nickelodeon were from Canada.
Massive in Australia and I watched them in the 80’s as reruns on a Saturday morning. I’ve downloaded all the theme tunes and kids can sing them all. Good times
When Captain America throws his mighty shield !! All those who chose to oppose his shield must yield !! I remember watching reruns of these cartoons in the summer of 1978 and fall of 1978 every Friday afternoon at 3 pm as a 16 year old high school junior.. Watching these Marvel Comics cartoons every Friday afternoon was part of my pre game. routine before my high school football team played its games on Friday nights.
AGREED and I think if you are UNDER 40 (at least) you can't sh*t on these cartoons because you are looking at them from todays (crappy...cough) standards
I don't know if you'll even read this, but this new energy you have in these videos is mesmerizing! Hope you're doing well this year, my man, and cheers from Macedonia!
During the late 80s/early 90s, these were aired in my country every afternoon so I grew up watching these. I remember being excited about this every single time. And until now, I love watching them when I get to find clips/videos because it reminds me of my childhood.
I actually audio taped the Cap/Avengers stories. This cartoon was what made Cap, Scarlet Which, Hawkeye and Quicksilver in Age of Ultron so cool. That and the Marvel Triple Action Reprints.
The Avengers was British Spy show that was why cartoon calls them Mighty Avengers and movie called them Marvel's The Avengers to not be confused with them.
One of these cartoons contained my favorite bit of dialogue from Stan Lee: "Feel my grip, Zemo! It's the grip of a free man! Look into my eyes, tyrant! They're the eyes of a man who would die for liberty! The world must never again make the fatal error of mistaking compassion for weakness!! AND WHILE I LIVE, IT WON'T!!!"
My dad used to sing that Cap song all the time when I was a kid! It's awesome to finally hear it. He also used to say this Thor related limerick all the time too, still no idea where this came from: The Thunder God went for a ride upon his favorite philly "I'm Thor!" he cried, and the horse replied, "You forgot your thaddle, thilly."
They had tape collections for rent at blockbuster, the captain America one also had an episode from amazing spiderman on it. It was the one where Cap came back and JJ was praising him so hard. I thought when Red Skull screamed after grabbing the tesseract was identical to when Red Skull got his mind switched with an empty chair. They nailed how it sounded.
I used to watch some of these, growing up. I only remember Hulk, and only his theme song, which, to this day, sometimes pops into my head for no reason.
Back in the '80s these shows (the Cap show, Thor, Hulk, Iron Man, Sub-Mariner, Spider-Man, and Fantastic Four) were commonly available and even just shown at comic cons. I remember there was a room dedicated to showing episodes at the big Boston comic con where Chris Claremont and Todd McFarlane were both big draws in like 1990. Also, the Iron Man and Fantastic Four cartoons were heavily sampled by hip-hop artists Ghostface Killah and MF DOOM so copies, probably on VHS were definitely still floating around in the late '90s.
For the record your new videos are so, so good, and much better than the old stuff. I love the structure you use, the humor, and the lighting and video and audio quality are way better than the vast majority of TH-cam channels. Even stuff like the borders you use for 4:3 stuff. Really felt it when there was that big gap between videos earlier this year, but I totally get needing to take a break.
These were on endless repeat in Australia during the late 70s and early 80s. as such all of the BRILLIANT theme songs are thoroughly burned into my reptilian brain
I actually have the original Sub Mariner VHS that included the X-Men and Avengers as Dr Doom used a hypnotic ray to get the Marvel villains to attack the gathering of heroes. Bad guys included Mole Man, Attuma, the Mandarin, Black Knight, and the Mad Thinker with his awesome Android. Funny thing, the building the heroes assembled in was Four Freedoms Plaza.
The VHS release was at some point in the mid 80s, we used to rent it all the time when I was a tiny person ('82 baby) The Hulk theme is still burned into my brain all these years later!
I'm over sixty, and I remember, vaguely, this show when it aired. I really remember the Red Skull's attempt to destroy the world with his robots. I even remember seeing the comic book version of this story. Red Skull was truly a grotesque looking villain for the sixties.
I had a bunch of these on VHS as a kid in the 80s. They were released under the banner of "the Marvel comics video library." Most video stores had at least 2 or 3 for rental (or you could order them from the distributor. They were relatively cheap). Not sure how many tapes were released in total. At least a dozen. Episodes of Spider-man were also part of the collection. The video cases featured some pretty cool art. I bet some are available on ebay. These cartoons also ran in reruns thru the 70s and 80s, so they werent totally forgotten. Great video though.
The one for Iron Man actually showed up in the first Iron Man movie--played by the theater orchestra when Tony's award is announced, and again when he's shown at the casino table.
You got me with the Legal Eagle appearance! For some stupid reason I was expecting a brother wearing the original Falcon costume. The first TH-cam crossover I've ever seen. Brilliant!
I was seven years old in 1966, and I lived for these cartoons. Couldn't wait for the next episode. I made a big deal about it. It came on channel 5 at 3:00 P.M. I'd save my Twinkies from my bag lunch just so I wouldn't get up from the TV set in the living room for even a minute to get a snack and miss anything. I'd bring my Captain America and Avengers comic books to lay on the rug in front of the TV. For those thirty minutes I was a true believer! 'Nuff said!
I remember watching all these cartoons on channel 13 KCOP LA when I was a kid, 84-86. They would be the first thing played in the morning after the morning national anthem broadcast.
Two boxed sets of these cartoons were released in the 1990’s with a collectible coin and a signed lithograph by Steve Rude. I watched them on TV when the shows were originally aired. The storylines often came from the comics and some of the original artwork was used in the animation.
Every kid who is now 50+ knew all of those theme songs. If you listen, you can here an instrumental version of "Iron Man" in 2009's Iron Man movie, when Tony is throwing the dice.
When Captain America throws his mighty shield All those who chose to oppose his shield must yield When he's led to a fight and a duel is due Then the red and the white and the blue will come through When Captain America throws his mighty shield
I was able to find this show pretty easily, and it was in live action with the sweater guy from Knives Out as Captain America.
Oh dang my copies are cartoons without the sweater guy. Paul screwed me over!
You Must Have The Remastered Version or Something.
I've got some VHS copies of them
You probably have the 'George Lucas Special Edition' or something

The "cartoon" where they just animated Jack Kirbys actual comic art and never gave him money for it. Comics was ran like the mob for decades.

This show is the original motion comic. And like today's motion comics, the original writers and artists get squat from them.

These cartoons are what made me a proud member of the M.M.M.S. and fan of Marvel for 1966-1972. Cheap animation but I loved how they used the art from the books.
It feels a bit like stealing from the artists to me.

These cartoons along with the 1960's Spider man were shown as after school reruns back in the 1970's. I remember watching them as a kid. "
Me too, Lars Ulrich, me too. Also keep up the drumming thing!
I happen to like these. They're 1960s silver age comics that come to life. I also like the voices
behind the heroes. Especially Thor. He sounds just like Richard Burton. And to this day, it's still
the voice I hear when reading a Thor comic. Anyway, they really shouldn't be hated, nor forgotten.
They're nostalgic; if anything else. And most importantly, they were made during The Marvel Age
of Comics. That; and you've got some beautiful Jack Kirby artwork to behold & enjoy..😉
p.s. Scott, I happen to have the entire run of these cartoons on DVD. And there're no skips or
pauses. A wonderful addition to my superhero movie library.
As kids, we had a VHS tape with the episode of "The Sleeper Shall Awake" on it, which is what led me to this video. It also had a spiderman episode on the same tape but I can't remember much about it other than the theme tune (who doesn't remember that) and the fact that spidey ran out of buildings to swing from and had to hitch on top of a semi truck.
It’s a shame these episodes aren't more easily available, despite how naff they are in the modern era.
This was a gas.
I need the others now too.

Hulk will be a fun one to cover! Make sure you're subscribed so you don't miss it when I cover those cartoons next!

*pelted. Pelted by gamma rays.
@@staceymeans134 there are several sites that say “belted”, including this one...nitcentral.philfarrand.com/cgi-bin/discus/board-auth.cgi?lm=1372719002&file=/110/30560.html
There’s a commenter that tries to correct it to “pelted” but apparently changed his mind after listening to the theme.
I watched these as a kid, and I've had occasion to try and tell my kids, and grand-kids, about them (and their theme songs). Thank you so much for re-visiting my memories.
And, as always, thank you so very much for the video.
Thanks so much for the kind message, Graham! Glad I could do it justice!
The theme songs are all gold. That Hulk theme was especially preposterous.
I remember seeing these when I was a kid. They might have been on Channel 11 from New York, which we got in South Jersey when we got cable (you know, the kind with the box with all the buttons connected to the TV with a wire). The theme songs have stayed in my head ever since, and I remember being touched by the one with Cap's wartime girlfriend (not named as Peggy in the cartoon). Between that and Nickelodeon's Video Comics (a very early Nick show that moved the camera from panel to panel of DC comics while actors read the dialogue), I got a pretty good grounding in Silver Age comics at the age of about nine.
I love Video Comics!! I watch it on TH-cam. The Swamp Thing one is VERY good.
This generation has absolutely no idea what it was for a young boy on those years to see their favorite comic book heroes on those TV shows.
I still love them all. I wished they were available today on DVD or blu ray. Also they used to have the amazing opening for the show featuring all 5 Super Heroes in a better animation clip that I think someone was able to download here on TH-cam.
Whenever I hear the old Captain America theme song I think of the continuation from HISHE
I always think of the Warp Zone rendition that turns throwing the shield into an innuendo.
that fire a warning shot clip was hilarious, i could watch it on loop.
Just incredible haha

This was MY MCU. I can even remember the theme songs.
I watched all those cartoons back in the 60s. Wouldn't miss it. It was amazing to see those characters come to cartoon life.
My dad grew up in Mexico during the seventies and he talks about the Namor and Thor cartoons almost always we talk about Marvel
That's pretty cool that they took straight from the comics. Also dat Legal Eagle cameo!
I'm 49, and I remember watching this on TV in the mornings before I left for school as a kid
I was a kid when The Marvel Superheroes premiered on Channel 9 in New York.
These cartoons were great and as far as the animation goes, the technology was not there like today so it was a little limited but still fun and entertaining.
Scott I'm glad you are back making videos,
You are one of the few "comic" TH-camrs that covers the backstory of business and creation
The Expressions On Irom Man and GiAnt Man Are Priceless.
These heroes inspire confidence!
@@NerdSyncProductions They Sure Do.
I want it to be the new “me and the boys” meme
Looks to me like Giant Man is stoned.
Scott, thanks so much for this Captain America video and also, the one on Thor. My friends and I remember watching these cartoons back in the Stone Age, when we were teenagers. We thought the animation and dialog were so bad, they were great ... they ranked alongside Clutch Cargo and Colonel Bleep for minimal animation. As primitive and corny as the cartoons were, they are unforgettable and should be made available. Look forward to your episodes on The Hulk, Iron Man, and the Submariner. BTW, I could have sworn I also watched the Spiderman cartoons along with the others. But, maybe I'm conflating things. Keep up the great work!
These cartoons were broadcast weekday afternoons in the early 70s when I was a kid. Along with Ultraman. What a great time to be alive!
"I'll launch my own rocket!" My, my, my. Cap, feelin' a little excited there?
I can tell you that this series was broadcast on WXON in Detroit on a weekday strip in the early 1980s. In addition, the Hulk episodes were broadcast in Canada in the 2000s on Teletoon.
I think the Hulk episodes got the most traction. People seemed to like those. Or at the very least, they liked Hulk and tolerated the cartoon haha
@@NerdSyncProductions Dude we LOVED these as a kid, maybe Disney has buried them but just search TH-cam and read about people's desire for the '67 Spider-Man clips be made widely available
@@bOmBAsTiK .. Yeah… We watched them in the early 70’s… We absolutely loved this show!!!
Ch. 20 ?
Weirdest thing. It came on early in the morning on weekends, pretty sure it was broadcast from Ontario as well because Mr.Wizard would come on right afterwards.
How I learned that most shows on early nickelodeon were from Canada.
Massive in Australia and I watched them in the 80’s as reruns on a Saturday morning. I’ve downloaded all the theme tunes and kids can sing them all. Good times
When Captain America throws his mighty shield !! All those who chose to oppose his shield must yield !!
I remember watching reruns of these cartoons in the summer of 1978 and fall of 1978 every Friday afternoon at 3 pm as a 16 year old high school junior.. Watching these Marvel Comics cartoons every Friday afternoon was part of my pre game. routine before my high school football team played its games on Friday nights.
I grew up with this. They were fantastic! Basically early motion comics. They used art from the comics themselves.
AGREED and I think if you are UNDER 40 (at least) you can't sh*t on these cartoons because you are looking at them from todays (crappy...cough) standards
I don't know if you'll even read this, but this new energy you have in these videos is mesmerizing! Hope you're doing well this year, my man, and cheers from Macedonia!
During the late 80s/early 90s, these were aired in my country every afternoon so I grew up watching these. I remember being excited about this every single time. And until now, I love watching them when I get to find clips/videos because it reminds me of my childhood.
I love these old cartoons, I get such a laugh from the animation and voice acting. Would love to see a recap of the Thor cartoon
I actually audio taped the Cap/Avengers stories. This cartoon was what made Cap, Scarlet Which, Hawkeye and Quicksilver in Age of Ultron so cool. That and the Marvel Triple Action Reprints.
Thor: "We are known as the mighty Avengers!"
The Avengers: (~_~)
inspiring
@@NerdSyncProductions That image is the hero counterpart to those "Me And The Boys" memes. Maybe that's what they're Avenging?
Giant Man's derpy face
DULL SURPRISE
The Avengers was British Spy show that was why cartoon calls them Mighty Avengers and movie called them Marvel's The Avengers to not be confused with them.
One of these cartoons contained my favorite bit of dialogue from Stan Lee: "Feel my grip, Zemo! It's the grip of a free man! Look into my eyes, tyrant! They're the eyes of a man who would die for liberty! The world must never again make the fatal error of mistaking compassion for weakness!! AND WHILE I LIVE, IT WON'T!!!"
I'll never forget the "Merry Marvel Marching Society" song that accompanied the show nor the theme songs for the individual heroes.
Why is teenage Bucky’s voice deeper than the Mariana Trench
Teenage Bucky has more testosterone than Dwayne the Rock Johnson
He was a heavy smoker. Six packs a day since he was five.
His balls just dropped.
"You missed!"
"No. He didn't."
My dad used to sing that Cap song all the time when I was a kid! It's awesome to finally hear it. He also used to say this Thor related limerick all the time too, still no idea where this came from:
The Thunder God went for a ride
upon his favorite philly
"I'm Thor!" he cried, and the horse replied,
"You forgot your thaddle, thilly."
They had tape collections for rent at blockbuster, the captain America one also had an episode from amazing spiderman on it. It was the one where Cap came back and JJ was praising him so hard.
I thought when Red Skull screamed after grabbing the tesseract was identical to when Red Skull got his mind switched with an empty chair. They nailed how it sounded.
You didn't have to make that New Girl reference.. But you did, and I will forever be grateful
"You are wrong! My days of regret are not over!" 🤣🤣🤣 BARZ
I used to watch some of these, growing up. I only remember Hulk, and only his theme song, which, to this day, sometimes pops into my head for no reason.
Back in the '80s these shows (the Cap show, Thor, Hulk, Iron Man, Sub-Mariner, Spider-Man, and Fantastic Four) were commonly available and even just shown at comic cons. I remember there was a room dedicated to showing episodes at the big Boston comic con where Chris Claremont and Todd McFarlane were both big draws in like 1990. Also, the Iron Man and Fantastic Four cartoons were heavily sampled by hip-hop artists Ghostface Killah and MF DOOM so copies, probably on VHS were definitely still floating around in the late '90s.
For the record your new videos are so, so good, and much better than the old stuff. I love the structure you use, the humor, and the lighting and video and audio quality are way better than the vast majority of TH-cam channels. Even stuff like the borders you use for 4:3 stuff. Really felt it when there was that big gap between videos earlier this year, but I totally get needing to take a break.
These were on endless repeat in Australia during the late 70s and early 80s. as such all of the BRILLIANT theme songs are thoroughly burned into my reptilian brain
It was thanks to reruns of this very show back in the 90s that I became aware, and thus a fan of the Sentinel of Liberty....
I actually have the original Sub Mariner VHS that included the X-Men and Avengers as Dr Doom used a hypnotic ray to get the Marvel villains to attack the gathering of heroes. Bad guys included Mole Man, Attuma, the Mandarin, Black Knight, and the Mad Thinker with his awesome Android. Funny thing, the building the heroes assembled in was Four Freedoms Plaza.
The VHS release was at some point in the mid 80s, we used to rent it all the time when I was a tiny person ('82 baby) The Hulk theme is still burned into my brain all these years later!
‘i launched my own rocket’ scene absolutely finished me
I'm over sixty, and I remember, vaguely, this show when it aired. I really remember the Red Skull's attempt to destroy the world with his robots. I even remember seeing the comic book version of this story. Red Skull was truly a grotesque looking villain for the sixties.
I had a bunch of these on VHS as a kid in the 80s. They were released under the banner of "the Marvel comics video library." Most video stores had at least 2 or 3 for rental (or you could order them from the distributor. They were relatively cheap). Not sure how many tapes were released in total. At least a dozen. Episodes of Spider-man were also part of the collection. The video cases featured some pretty cool art. I bet some are available on ebay. These cartoons also ran in reruns thru the 70s and 80s, so they werent totally forgotten. Great video though.
These all had the craziest theme songs.
The one for Iron Man actually showed up in the first Iron Man movie--played by the theater orchestra when Tony's award is announced, and again when he's shown at the casino table.
@cinephan… and I have them all memorized!🤣
I NEEEEVEEEER thought I'd have to ask but, after that intro I found myself thinking "Why not Iron Man's roller skates"
BTW, I believe the bouncy A.I.M. robot just makes butter for the rest of the crew so that breakfast toast and pancakes never disappoint!

No, that's Heinrich. The one in FATWS (and modern comics) is his son Helmut, who never got it glued on his face.
You got me with the Legal Eagle appearance! For some stupid reason I was expecting a brother wearing the original Falcon costume.
The first TH-cam crossover I've ever seen. Brilliant!
I hadn’t forgotten about the ‘60’s Marvel cartoons because I’m currently watching Captain America
Edit: These shows are used in Marvel Mash-Ups
We need a video on how Bucky goes from a Robin knockoff to an edgy assassin
I was seven years old in 1966, and I lived for these cartoons. Couldn't wait for the next episode. I made a big deal about it. It came on channel 5 at 3:00 P.M. I'd save my Twinkies from my bag lunch just so I wouldn't get up from the TV set in the living room for even a minute to get a snack and miss anything. I'd bring my Captain America and Avengers comic books to lay on the rug in front of the TV. For those thirty minutes I was a true believer! 'Nuff said!
this channel is such a gem, Ive been watching for so long and I'm waiting for it to blow up in subscribers
You used to be able to find VHS versions of these episodes in the bargain bins at places like Dollar General in Walmart
I remember watching this in the 70's. The intro songs were great, especially Ironman's. "Tony stark is the man of steel..."
Devin was great in this. "Holy Litigation!!"
I remember watching all these cartoons on channel 13 KCOP LA when I was a kid, 84-86. They would be the first thing played in the morning after the morning national anthem broadcast.
Scott having his nails painted in this video makes me so happy
💅🏻💅🏻💅🏻
Why??
@@SlapNuts4Life why not. I love painting my nails.
@@akimbofurry2179 that’s gay
@@SlapNuts4Life You got a problem with gay people?
At any rate, it's not inherently gay to paint your nails. It's just a little feminine.
I woke up at 6:00 am on Saturdays in the late '70s to watch this. Try explain that to my 12y kid who grew up with Netflix, Disney+, Amazon.
Two boxed sets of these cartoons were released in the 1990’s with a collectible coin and a signed lithograph by Steve Rude. I watched them on TV when the shows were originally aired. The storylines often came from the comics and some of the original artwork was used in the animation.
"I'm almost 30, which is a surprisingnly hard sentence to say out loud" yes, yes, it is kskskks
I would love to hear about all of them. Also, who is leaving your channel? Fools! Things just keep getting better and better.
Dumb People Are The Ones Leaving The Channel.
People have run out of patience,
I have patience though, and I don't plan on leaving this channel.
Every kid who is now 50+ knew all of those theme songs. If you listen, you can here an instrumental version of "Iron Man" in 2009's Iron Man movie, when Tony is throwing the dice.
