As the final installment to Hanna-Barbera's Super Friends series, The Super Powers Team: Galactic Guardians features the voice of Adam West as Batman, and brings an electrifying and memorable end to Hanna-Barbera's 12 year run of the Super Friends on the ABC network. Based on the Justice League, the series is most celebrated for its accurate television adaptation of the original DC comic book characters. Darkseid of Apokolips and his minions Kalibak and DeSaad are the primary rivals in this particular series, challenging the team of heroes, which includes the newly introduced Firestorm and Cyborg.
Comments from The Patriot Resource: The Super Powers Team: Galactic Guardians continues the Super Friends series that was finally running out of steam by the mid-'80s along with many of the older cartoon staples. They attempted to go younger by adding Firestorm and Cyborg, but comic books and those comic book superheroes' popularity was on the wane. The comic book-inspired plots were great and the animation holds up better than some classic cartoons. But we have to admit to having to give the show a break because the cliched dialogue just got to be a bit much at times. The latest round of Justice League-inspired animated series give frequent nods to the original Super Friends, but thankfully leave the clunky dialogue behind.
