“Easily the clear winner is Vince Colemanâ€¦two reasons:
1.Vince Coleman is REAL”

I find your lack of faith disturbing…

“then went all Army of Darkness and stuck a sword on his arm when his hand got chopped off. I mean, how metal is that?”

That’s a solid 5.86 on the “metal” scale, right there.

Does anyone remember the name of the show that had the giant robots?- Goldar(the dad), Silvar(mom) and I can’t remember the kid’s character…just as bad as Ultraman.

Great post, Joe.

I too grew up with The Superfriends (and the Legion of DOOM!) I’ve rented many of the Ultraman dvd’s for my kids. I can’t believe how hokey they now look.

Do you remember Marine Boy, and his electric boomerang? Ah yes, they just don’t make cartoons like they did in my (our) day.

And you’re right on the money w/Aquaman. I liked him but it was funny how no matter what was going on, there was a need for Aquaman to do SOMETHING. Patrol the coastlines if nothing else.

Easily the clear winner is Vince Coleman…two reasons:
1.Vince Coleman is REAL…so he would only be able to fight Aimee Mann.

2. One left hook to Aimee Mann and she is out for the count.

I can’t believe you know about Johnny Sokko. In high school, a bunch of my friends and I went to the drive-in in December for a Godzilla triple feature with Godzilla’s Revenge- that Sokko kid and Baby Godzilla running around the jungle (Minya looked like an animated Tootsie Roll or ET on steroids) with this nylon windbreaker and low-budget stereo headphones on. What a career!

No one remembers Seanbaby? No one? The man was inventing the field of Aquaman criticism (and for all of the Superfriends) ten years ago. Some props for the original master, please.

The german shepard beating Mushmouth was talked about for weeks at B-W. Classic.
