Thundarr The Barbarian is one of the best cartoons of the 80s I would love to see a reboot to this classic cartoon you can literally write a film from just one of those episodes of thundarr that's how good those episodes were I really wish that cartoon would have lasted longer I'm glad I grew up in the 80s there was just such amazing cartoons in those times.
Me too
Been waiting for years for a revival. Even in comic book form.
Amen friends. This was one of the greatest most original cartoons ever.
#KWL
I agree with you because of a few extra people that very few know about.
Please read mine.
THE YEAR IS 1994 FROM OUTER SPACE COMES A RUNAWAY PLANET.
HURLING BETWEEN THE EARTH AND THE MOON.UNLEASING COSMIC DESTRUCTION!!First time I saw this I got a chill down my spine!!It was a great show and could have gotten 4 season.If it was not for Chicken Shit ABC!!
Yes! Before He-Man, there was Thundarr & Blackstarr! I loved watching those cartoons on Saturday mornings. To me I always thought that Thundarr was a mixture of Thor & Conan put together.
Thundarr the Barbarian was an absolute classic. I think what always struck me the most about the series was all the recognicable landmarks after the natrual disaster laid waste to them. Not only did it give a certain eerie atmoshere to the scenery but I love how they alway played a part in the theme or plot of the episodes.
And yes, I'd love a reboot/revival of the series. Especialy one with improved animation and a story that can flesh out the characters. I also wouldn't mind a darker, more mature take on the series. Maybe one that could air on Adult Swim next to Unicorn Warriors Eternal and Primal.
Thundar is a gem. This was light-years ahead of every show for decades.
Great cartoon of my childhood. I have the DVD set of the series. I watch it on a regular basis sometimes.
Fun fact, Zevon’s name comes from the singer Warren Zevon. Zevon is famous for the song “Werewolves of London.” This episode was too on the nose with that reference.
I loved this show as a kid.
One of my favorites as a kid !! Loved this show !!
More proof of how my childhood rocked!!!
This is one of my favorite cartoons from Saturday morning cartoons.
Who here built forts in the living room and watched Saturday morning cartoons while eating cereal?

*Oh man, if only I had more freedom with the TV back in the day, I WOULD HAVE DONE THIS!!!* ⛺🥺🎪😤
You too?!?!?!?!?!
Thundarr is the Man. Truly a hero in the Classical sense.
You can see the effects of Jack Kirby's art on some of the characters of this show. Some resemble his New gods
one unintentionally genius aspect was that the main cast were designed by Alex Toth instead of Kirby. Also Kirby didn't write the world setting, Toth did.
The juxtaposition makes things feel just a bit disjointed, but it makes the world have more depth. The heroes stand out from the villains due to having a subtly different design aesthetic. And some of the villains you go "wait, what? why???" because while as it's own thing it easily makes sense, it doesn't fit neatly into the big picture. But it's not that it doesn't fit, more that you don't understand HOW. It's the sort of background info that just doesn't fit into episodes, and would need to be in a book.
Gemini reminds me of Darkseid, which isn't surprising.
So this where inspiration came from that parody cartoon that the TMNT 2012 were watching.
Thundarr was my absolute favorite Hanna Barbara cartoon, and even as an adult now is still entertaining. Something to be said about descent writing as the bar seems pretty low today. Great music too...
Thundarr does indeed possess super powers. In 1 episode he readily lifts & tosses a full sized automobile at his opponents. Although, Thundarr is not as strong as Ucla.
Fantastic, thorough breakdown. Thanks for this.
I can't believe that after all these years they've made so many remakes of 1980's cartoon series like Voltron,Transformers and G.I. Joe for example and Thundarr is the only one that has never gotten a remake or even a movie which I would like to see or maybe even if they did a movie it would be nice to see it as a origin movie of like what happened on Earth the day that runaway planet that nearly destroyed the Earth and what happened with the aftermath and how the 3 heroes met now that would be nice to see.
No revival. A firm believer of leave the classics original. Thanks for this keen insight👍
Without out a doubt one of the best shows on tv . I still love it. It had everything you could ask for. The art inspired by Kirby . The stories and great characters. I would have loved if it was rebooted and made it like the old Flash Gordon animated series. Just really great on going story . No Woke stuff or anything like that just a great story.
"Inspired by"... much of it was Jack Kirby's creation.
#KWL
SO TRUE, I have always tried to bring the fact of #JackKirby but a few others that are Highly Respected Artists in their involvement.
@@kevinlacey8760 Alex Toth was the other big name here. You can kinda see the seams in the TV show where the different style meat each other. The big picture world building? Toth. The heroes? Toth. but most of the villains are by Kirby.
@@marhawkman303 #KWL
Right , I was getting others to check into it...bug the hell out of @Marel to acquire the rights, because of this crossover.
@@kevinlacey8760 you mean Marvel comics? enh... seems unwise given the current state of Marvel.
As a D&D kid of the 80’s, so many memories watching this for amazing Saturday morning fun and inspiration!
I loved watching this show every Saturday on cartoon network!🙂
This show was not only ahead of it's time, but it's very clear that it's predictive! This is where we are headed.
Loved this cartoon, always wonder why some company hasn't made these action figures
This cartoon pushed the limits more than anytime else at the time. Definitely not for kids
It would make a great movie.. maybe even a trilogy… First how the earth was basically destroyed by the moon and going on to tell Thundars story as he battled the evil forces that arrived ending in an eventual peace with a cliffhanger at the end 😮
Nice video and tribute to a wonderful childhood series past .. i would suggest to include the locations of the adventures in the video as like kungfu, incredible hulk .. travelled the continent and became justice or heroes for the unjust
9:36 Lot of "evil eyeshadow" in this show! The artwork looks like Jack Kirby meets Frank F!
I think with the character Gemini where he has 2 personalities reminds me of Blitzwing from Transformers Animated where said Decepticon also has a split personality or in Blitzwing's case a triple personality where like Gemini's personalities are calm and collective and aggressive Blitzwing's personalities are calm and collective,aggressive and just plain crazy.
With how they treat reboots by forcing an agenda? Please, no. Thundarr should remain classic TV cartoon history. All 21 episodes. Could you do the places they visited, next? New York City is obviously one of them.
YESSS!!💪👊 Loved this cartoon as a kid, playing #Mythforce too now!
Loved watching this show as a child growing up in the 80’s!
I absolutely loved Thundarr!!!! It was a huge part of my Saturday mornings as a kid!!!! Such a great show for its time!!!! Would love to see this show remade today with new graphics and new storys!!!! Thatd be amazing!!!! Love the Content keep up the great work guys 👍
Gerber & Kirby
Having a Jack Kirby Aesthetic was brilliant
Great, Love this show.
Yeah, this was a great cartoon when I was growing up
There needs to be a remake of this show. It is highly underrated.
❤ Thundarr watched every Saturday as a kid
WOW!!!! Just... wow,my childhood flashed before my eyes. These episodes were so layered I never realized it was only 13 episodes. A reboot would be great. Even a movie there's so much to work with
it's actually 21 eps. season 1 was 13, season 2 was 8
Thundarr was one of my favorite cartoons.i have the series on dvd.
22:27 Dude is wearing a tennis racket as a medallion! Yes, future people may not understand things
This should get a proper remake. Not for kids but, adults.
the original was a "teen" show, so it went way farther than anything actually "for kids".
I remember a witch stole Princess Ariel’s body.
Circe, that was a neat ep because of the perspective they have on how magic works in it.
Loved this show!
It was a great series.
I loved this show ☺️🙌🏾
*This is SOOO AMAZING!!! I could only hope **#MarvelousVideos** also makes a similar video about Galtar, Blackstar, Conan, FreedomForce/Space Sentinels, Mightor and the old Flash Gordon.* 💪🏼🤩
Wish the big studios would make a live-action #Thundarr movie. 🙄
Maybe MGM, since that was the big studio Thundarr originated from, produced by Ruby-Spears!!!
Post apocalyptic cartoon
I watched Thunder with his Sun Sward and BlackStar with the Star Sward as a kid on Saturday morning’s!
loved this cartoon along with Johnny Quest. Why no live-action show/movie was ever made is amazing.......along with space ghost and the jetsons .........reminds me of heavy metal
It’s a little weird watch in English. Growing up in Brazil I watched in Portuguese and in black and white. This was my favorite cartoon. I used to think that something would happen in 1994. Thirty years later… hehehe.
Loved this cartoon, a possible future Earth.
Yes I love Thundarr The Barbarian also The Herculois and Jonny Quest bring them all back...
You did fine job, now if I could only get the series on DVD,...I would be happy...
It is on DVD.
Thundarr had comic book greats like Jack Kirby and Steve Gerber, working on it!
My dad watched that show back in the day.
DEMON DOGS!!! LORDS OF LIGHT!!!
The three women travelling to the present day sounds like it could have been a back-door pilot. I wonder how far in time from the comet disaster they would have been.
Darn... was hoping to find out who this dude summoning a critter is. 0:47
kirby has some great artists working with him as well.........
They have drawn so many beautifull women!
Awesome video! But it's pronounced sep-ter, not skep-ter
Thank you!
Loved this cartoon as a kid... When it disappeared from the airwaves after the second season it was so disappointing.
Please do a vid on Rocket Robin Hood villains ? As well Spider-Man from the 70’s?❤🇨🇦
There's a lot of room for lore expansion if they were to remake the series.
I loved Thundarr, would later inspire the likes of He-man.
I feel as if the Old RPG game Riffs borrowed heavily from Thundarr the Barbarian !!
I believe you mean Rifts. Gamma World is an RPG that also represents the world of Thundarr very well.
You forgot Chom, from the Challenge of the Wizards, with his wheel machines?
Yeah, he didn't get everyone, that's for sure.
Kane's Parents and Kane remember them all and they were been making a real movie
I wish. Hanna-Barbera would give Thundarr a comic book of his own! Thundarr is a great warrior with indomitable willpower! enhanced strength, durability against injury, and incredible healing factor on him. All they need is a potential writer who has great ideas and creations for Thundarr the Barbarian storylines. Ookla is incredibly strong like that and a good friend to Thundarr and Ariel ought to possess more knowledge of magic like Dr. Strange. I don't know too much about Ariel and Ookla's origins. It is a mystery to me.
Ariel actually has a very deep pool of magical skills. Teleportation, energy barriers, magical constructs, disintegration beams, animating statues, scrying, she even heals a guy with magic in one ep!
She has less raw power than a lot of the bad guys, but... she actually beats some of the bad guys in duels.
You can definitely see The late Jack Kirby’s influence all over this show.
Jack Kirby worked on the show. He was the main creator.
I know that. You can tell from watching the show. Plus,I own a book about Jack Kirby where it mentioned him working on Thundarr the Barbarian. Plus,he also did a storyboard for an episode of the Superfriends as well.@@MichaelKurse
@@MichaelKurse I would actually give Jack Kirby SECOND billing... behind Alex Toth. Alex Toth did the world building. Kirby helped populate it. So yeah, a lot of character designs scream "Jack Kirby made this!"... but they live in Alex Toth's world.
@@marhawkman303 Thank You, I forgot about Alex Toth, who created so many character designs in that era.
I wish this was on a stream
I would love revival just as long as Disney isn't involved.
Too bad we never got a movie based on this cartoon
I'd like to see a live action series. There is a lot of story here to explore as long as they don't woke it up or make it silly.
I would like to know more about the sun sword's back history. It had to been created by twentieth-century scientists, and since it's only allows Thunder to wield it, there must be a genetic biomechanical lock to it to prevent others from using it. Yes I am aware of the episode in which Thunder had to touch the sun sword to a regarded magical pool to become the sun swords Master again but there has to be a scientific origin to the Sun sword's creation there cannot be just a magical origin the sun sword has too much a science feel to it
As revealed in the episode The Island the sunsword has the ability to disrupt magic. Therefore it can't possibly have a scientific origin.
@@houseofno Hmm... given that Ariel knows more about how the sword actually works than Thundarr... it's possibly Sabian's creation.
#KWL
THERE WILL NEVER BE A REBOOT, REIMAGINED, Until #JackKirby, who was involved with #Thundar, and giving respect tor. Kirby, @Marvel should take it on!
Hmm... pretty good video summary. But as I'm seemingly one of the top Thundarr nerds on the planet(I helped write a wiki about it)... I noticed a few things you messed up..
Mindok isn't a cyborg.
Octagon didn't die....
Skullus's battledroids are energy constructs, not robots.
Khromm, Argoth, Valerie Storm, Mazem... spelled wrong... the wrong spelling is due to the last letter missing.
Sarott(and probably several others) you pronounced it wrong... like REALLY wrong. It's suh-Rott.
The grizzly Snake is a monster... not a character. Tye's friend Arak is more deserving of mention.
Seriously, I'm pretty sure you read the wiki me and Malcadon wrote... pay more attention next time!
Also it'd have been better if you mentioned which episodes each character was in. You did them in a weird random order.
I’m surprised that neither DC or Marvel didn’t adapted this series into a comic book back in the day’s. If they did,perhaps we could’ve had ourselves some Thundarr the Barbarian action figures from Hasbro,Mattel or Kenner.
Alex Toth and Jack Kirby did work for them, and there WAS actually a planned comic book line! However it was a smaller publisher than went out of business before it could get printed. We don't have anything other than a picture of one of the covers. Which... showed a floating casino ship?
Still it would’ve been cool of either Marvel or DC Comics had adapted Thundarr as a comic book @@marhawkman303
Oh, boy. I'd hate to see the way Disney's Marvel would have destroyed this ...
I was talking about Marvel before they got bought out by Disney. A comic book line would’ve definitely ushered Thundarr into an iconic Toyline and possibly a future live action Sc-Fi film had Ruby Spears marketed Thundarr outside of just being a Saturday morning cartoon back then. Hasbro,Kenner or Mattel could’ve made some wicked action figures. Hopefully someone will rediscover Thundarr and get the rights to the franchise someday.@@davekemp9585
Our generation always was Epic. I need a Time Machine, stat😂

Did the developers of this series got the name Princess Ariel before Disney did?
I really hope some entertainment company, buys the rights to this cartoon show, and so that way a new version of (THUNDARR: THE BARBARIAN) cartoon show could get made.
Be it on the HULU network, or on the MAX network, or on the NETFLIX network, or on some other network.
If they ever do a live-action reboot of this one, who do you suppose they'd cast in it?
The fact Princess Auriel is more stronger than Thunder😊
They did a fake trailor that looked pretty cool.
he mean the septor of the yang sea.
Ariel OOkla ride!
Ookla also got his name from one of the puppets on the show Kookla,Fran,and Ollie.
The estate of the late Jack Vance should sue the producers for ripping off The Dying Earth
when did Jack Vance write that?
@@marhawkman3031950
@@iwasanangryyoungman At any rate, there's a lot of old pop-sci-fi that went that direction. look up the old Amazing fantasy.
