#55: "Bubble, Bubble, Oil and Trouble"

While a lot of kids in 1981 were watching Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends, a syndicated solo series was airing at the same time -- and while it’s less-remembered, it definitely has unique things to offer.

And yet, it’s still nowhere near as silly as Amazing Friends!
