This cartoon was the reason why I myself started drawing comics and made this even into a career (for 11 years). It's been definitely the most influential cartoon show of my life.

I remember drawing ones specifically from this show when I was in fifth grade. That cusp between still wanting to do kid stuff and wanting to act all grown up. I wonder if any stayed in storage at my folks' house. I know I tried to save SOME artwork from those days.

So true, from 1976-1982 had so many blahhhh cartoons. Hanna Barbera had great ones from the 60s and 70s but by 76 everything was repackaged Scooby Do and it was just not great. He-Man was the first revival of good cartoons and the perfect Thundercats, and not bad GI Joe then Beetle Juice and Animaniacs and the non-stop hits on Disney's One Saturday Morning with the outstanding Recesses, the fun Doug, and Pepper Ann.
