The lyrics are so simple, and yet, they immediately evoke the exact emotional state one would want for a kid watching this show. Instead of giving us the story or origin of the characters, here we are given all the reasons why we should be rooting for them instead. In addition, the theme song even appeared within the world of the show, where the wrist com alerts and Tommy’s dragon dagger flute both played the iconic tune. It was written by the great Ron Wasserman, who is also responsible for the #1 entry…
A very enjoyable read! ;o) I pretty much agree with all of your your pics. I would have loved to see ‘Wonder Woman’ on there going to bat for the girls out there.

Look forward to more from you.
Agreed Aniva…a good pair of underwear/tights make such a difference lol. Enjoyed your article bought a few old tunes from my youth back to memory (Teen turtles). Thunder Cats another one of my favs…
