Fan Page: Spider-Man And His Amazing Friends



1981 saw the premiere of Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends, a cartoon that stuck around for most of the 1980's in one way or another even if they stopped making new episodes in 1983. It was JUST THAT POPULAR! If you agree with me and think that this cartoon is one of the greatest ever, be sure to go and vote for it in our Best Cartoon of 1981 Poll! And of course if you have anything nice to say about Spidey & Friends, any memories or stories you'd care to share, please go right ahead and leave a few comments below :)

Fan Page: The Kid Super-Power Hour With SHAZAM!



The Kid Super-Power Hour With SHAZAM! melted my little 8-year-old mind and further blurred that razor-thin line between Fantasy and Reality. Teenagers dressed up as Super Heroes! And then they turned in to cartoon character for the cartoon parts! And the very first ever CAPTAIN MARVEL CARTOONS! This was a bonding point between my Dad and I... he was decidedly non-nerdy, but had been a Captain Marvel fan when he was a kid (he was an older dude).

If you have anything nice to say, or anything to say at all about this show please feel free to share it in the comments below. And hey, if this is one of your favorites? Be sure to go and vote for it in our Best Cartoon of 1981 Poll!

Mini-Poll: BREAKFAST OF CHAMPIONS

It's widely accepted that sugary cereal is the king of Saturday Morning Breakfast, sure... and we'll be getting to a poll about your favorite 80's Breakfast Cereal somewhere down the line... but not everybody ate cereal! For instance my friend, Greg, always had two toaster waffles with raisins in the holes. Kevin had Pop Tarts. And Amber had Hippie Parents so she always had either Granola or an actual "Well Balanced Breakfast" (I loved getting to sleep over at Amber's house). And even I myself was known to have an English Muffin with cheese on top every once in a while :) So this has got me thinking... Cereal has always been considered king, but what if it's actually something else?

Let's make this official. Let's use SCIENCE and DATA to determine once and for all what the KING of Saturday Morning Breakfasts should actually be shall we? Vote for whatever you actually at at breakfast, check all that apply and if I've missed anything feel free to mention it in the comments :)
