Well, here’s a few things you might not know!

This week we're taking a look at DC's most iconic animated series of all time, Super Friends! While later series such as Batman: The Animated Series and Justice League Unlimited may have garnered accolades and legions of fans, the fact is, no DC animated project has worked its way into the public consciousness more than Super Friends, from the Hall of Justice to the Wonder Twins to the Legion of Doom to Solomon Grundy also wanting pants. This video takes a look at the history of the series, from its animated precursors through the various incarnations of the series and all its many titles, as well as the show's legacy and various homages to it.
