THE MIGHTY HEROES


The Mighty Heroes was a Terrytoons Saturday morning superhero spoof from 1966. The show was created by Ralph Bakshi and began life as an impromptu pitch during a meeting with CBS (the parent corporation to Terrytoons), after they'd rejected a slew of planned pitches. There were 21 episodes in all after which (in an episode of Mighty Mouse: The New Adventures) the Mighty Heroes hung up their capes and cowls to become accountants in a firm called "Man, Man, Man, Man & Man".
