True to its title, "The Story Begins" introduces the audience to the Defenders of The Earth's colorfully animated cast of characters.
It is Flash Gordon, whose spaceship crashes near Mandrake and Lothar's mansion, who tells us of evil Ming's plan to destroy the earth. In addition to being panicked over Ming's plans for the destruction of earth, he is anguished over the well-being of his wife and son Rick whom he was forced to leave behind.

Please don't anybody make a live action version of this. Just leave it alone.
Flash Gordon had his on TV and movies and the phantoms had his own movie
Tarde demais
Especially disney and dc. No no by them
And they already made a phantom movie
Why not..ITS cool
Those young sidekicks are now in their 40s and 50s.
How time flew.

@GM Steelhaven I was going to say this story was not very old- I remember just a few years back they were selling the graphic novels.
When I was a child my father bought me a CD of this movie and after watching this movie I became a fan and watching it again after all these years took me back to my childhood.
You mean a DVD? or Laser Disc?
@@kristopherkrueger4617he meant a pcp 😶😶
@@kristopherkrueger4617foreign people CD is enough
bluray exactly
Loved this as a kid back in the 80s!!!.... back then,this was up there with Thundercats,SilverHawks,He Man,Mask, Jayce & the Wheeled Warriors,,etc,,,...such a gem that has now been forgotten.
So do I, my man..
Thata so true.
Yea best cartoons ever
MASK was awesome but GI Joe was my favorite of all time back then.
👍 sword of omen.. thundercat
That theme was so 80’s my jeans went from regular to stone washed !!!
Those were the golden days of this planet which we can't bring them back. But we can only remember and miss them.
I know, I wish we could live in the 80s forever, such an awesome decade ,and that's an understatement 😀🇯🇲👊🏿💯
Ah yes, those great days of my childhood. Every Saturday and Sunday morning, sat with my brother watching on the old CRT TV, eating cookies before everyone else woke up.
One of those theme songs that gets stuck in your head!
It certainly does!
So 90s 😂😂
I completely forgot about this fucking series BUT I found myself singing along and I knew the lyrics
I may as well been speaking in tongues 😆😆😆
@@ComicsKingdomOfficial 00r
49 years old and I still remember this theme song word for word...
Proof that my childhood rocked!!
Love from Nigeria
Thanks for the upload.
Proper flashback to my childhood and all the great things about the 80's
Aaah. I remember this cartoon so well. One of my favourites.
I tried reading the comics online of each character online and the only one that stuck was "The Phantom" still my favourite to this day.
Phantom is number one, Mandrake second and Flash number three
But everyone remembers "Lothar" .... Remember Lothar?😅
No Cartoon can replace this beauty...
Wow I never saw this growing up in the 80's. Takes me back none the less. Miss the good ol days such a simpler time.
When you are done with Defenders, please check out the other classic series on this channel.
Also our Popeye & Friends Channel: ruclips.net/channel/UCqvXAiNyn8pd9SVPclWfJTg
I like the fact that they made the animation really good and it just brings back such a memory
Before the time that AKOM took over animation duties. They were foisted on Transforners at first, with GI Joe and everything else spared. AKOM is considered pretty decent animating Simpsons.
This cartoon brings back so much memories... it's a new era now called animations........now but I love the old school ...better And forever
When I was a kid, I thought this was a sequel to the Filmation Flash Gordon series.
Sorry, I'm calling out Lothar at 2 minutes. "It sounds like science fiction." Dude, there is a smoking ruin of a starship in your front yard! You live with a guy who does real magic! The writers should have the kid say that, and then Lothar should say, "Well, Kashin, there are many things I have seen. This would not be impossible."
Its time to turn this into a live action...trilogy at that..
Holywood will find a way to screw it up. Perhaps change some of the characters to female? Could Mandrake be a female name?
I remember watching this as an 11 year old back in 1985 on our one and only TV Station on the island of Trinidad. Back then, DOE was part of an all star Saturday morning cartoon block that ran from 8-11am. Those were the good old days that had children's shows that were far better than the junk of today that is playing a key part in corrupting young minds.
"corrupting" how?
I remember a movie where Billy Zane played the Phantom. There was this scene where the phantom is firing two pistols at once and crosses his arms while firing. That stuck with me visually.
That movie was ahead of its time. It was too soon for audiences to be open to the idea of superhero movies like The Phantom and The Shadow. Same thing happened in Hong Kong with Black Mask (the Jet Li movie).
@@SaitohYatate ,Agreed.Just last night I watched it and it was amazing .The film is highly underrated.
never see that coming
@@SaitohYatate Which is funny since The Shadow is one of the three characters that inspired Batman.
Best thing about that movie was the fact that arguably the sexiest woman in Wales, Catherine Zeta Jones, played the main baddie.
Brings back great memories. I feel like a child again
Flash, Phantom, Mandrake and Lothar - truly an animated A-Team.
Defenders of the Earth........one of the most criminally underrated legion of superheroes.Yet this was the best way to connect with the fans of King Syndicate Comics.
Tiger is the best legion ever
THE BEST CLASSIC ANIMATED TELEVISION SHOW HAS BEEN OFTEN IMATATED BUT NEVER DUPLICATED THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE
This would be a good movie beinging back heros older then Superman , and Batman to a new generation.
Used to watch this with my grandad wow what memories!
Best classic animated television series of all time ❤❤❤❤😂😂😂😂
Holy MARVEL Action Universe! I remember that cartoon when I was 13... 1986 was a great year.
I grow up watching this cartoon...good memories👍
It would be so cool if they make this a live movie
To my knowledge this show was never seen here in Finland, which is odd since all these characters, Flash Gordon, Mandrake, Lothar and especially The Phantom have always been very well known here, and we would had loved to see this show back in the day. The toys based on this show were released here though and me and my brothers had almost all of them. It is great to see this show here now, and with it's style and characters still fills me with nostalgia!
Moi hieno kommentti... Kuinka vanha olet, jos saa kysyä?
@@peterah7957 Vähän yli 30. En ollut elossa 80-luvulla kun tämä sarja ulkomailla ja lelut täällä olivat markkinoilla, mutta veljeni olivat, joilla oli kaikki nuo figuurit ja jotka sain itselleni myöhemmin nuorena, samalla tutustuen etenkin Mustanaamioon sarjakuvalehtien kautta
Go Kimi!!! And Nightwish!!!
I agree that it's odd. These characters are popular in Sweden as well and, though I'm not sure if this show was broadcast on any TV channel, the episodes were collected on rental VHS cassettes. It seems strange that noone took the opportunity to do the same in Finland.
Childhood anthem...
AH I remember this. Phantom is one of the coolest superheros.
Agree. The film was good as well, just had bad promotion and reviews
This show was based off the 1930's something comic strips; books even. Then some live tv shows of some of the characters; including Flash's early 1980's movie. Nostalgia all over...
Even though this doesn't have enough spot light time it's still worth watching due to creativity
Am 39 and I love cartoons, this is nostalgic 😍 remembering my childhood.
Thank you for sharing this video,it brings me back to my childhood,no smartphones,no internet just me & my friends watching this heros and then we going oute & copy them,awsome life.
Wow, I remember when this cartoon first aired, I never missed an episode, and like all good things it didn't run for very long, but introducing these classic characters the way it was done, not something seen very much, but it shows when it is done right. I'd love to see a new series , with tis style of animation or at least a style similar, it might go over pretty well. Thanks for posting these awesome cartoons, the 80's had a lot of cartoon jems for everyone to enjoy.
Thank you! Along with Defenders, I am sure you will enjoy the other series on our channel.
Hm
Myself with the lyrics 🎵 me in gods 🙏 way,amazing from us,must say we work in mysterious ways trust me unique
Ure welcome bro
@@ComicsKingdomOfficial what relation Is this phantom to kit walker from phantom 2040??
Jedda's hair is brown (but later, black). And Octon speaks differently too! Love the show, thank you for uploading it!
Nostalgist is over 9000 i miss my childhood. Im sorry to all not born in the 80s and not a teen in the 90s mannnnn you missed it was best time on earth
Used to watch this ALL the time....along with Voltron, Tranzor z, Speed Racer etc
Question is what came first Astro Boy or Great Mazinger Z or voltron Defender of the Universe or The Super human Samurai cyber squad
13:18 Ah, the law of equivalent exchange at work. He brings his hat into existence, and so must lose his mustache.
Lol
Remember that I had a VHS of this but my old cruddy VCR ate the tape thanks for the upload
I love Mandrake :) I used to get so excited when reruns came in the early 90s. I've been looking for the name of this. Thank you!
You're very welcome!
Phantom... I remember seeing phantom comic strips on newspapers
The theme song is worth watching the entire show.
Also, phantoms voice
This is pure '80s! Loved it as a child, loving the revisit as well.
This was and this is my childhood when I see these beautiful cartoons and hear the songs takes me back to that very special place if only I could go back to those special times.
Thought I'd made this up, glad to see I didn't! Some happy memories watching this
Wow man this was a stand out series back in the day...
FLASH GORDON, THE PHANTOM, MANDRAKE THE MAGICIAN & LOTHAR.
Best-selling animated series next to the Thundercats and SilverHawks and Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors greatest accomplishment in a Classic American Animated Television series
Best classic animated television series of all time ❤❤❤
First came the defenders of the Earth, then Justice League and Now Avenger.
This is LEGEND....
thank you for uploading this...
You're welcome!
Ming sounds awesome in this and it's nice to see the phantom in a cartoon.
The laser shooting sounds like they were lifted from battlestar galactica
I USE TO WATCH THIS EVERY TIME I FINISH SCHOOL AND NOW THERE MAKING MOVIE'S OF IT NOW DAM.
This song brought me back to the early 1990's in Jamaica 🇯🇲.. wow..life is a Journey...
This was a 80s show , so I guess in Jamaica they were still showing reruns
Wow this cartoon brings me back to my childhood days
The full series is posted on our channel along with other classics, enjoy!
Not seen this since a kid love it man
top class
The intro music sounds like something Jack Black would sing
"These are *not*... The Defenders of the Earth... They are only.. a *TRIBUTE* ..."
Lol, I was thinking McGrubber!!! 🤔
one of the few shows i loved as a kid.
This is a good way to re- introduce and update The Phantom in a new movie version - this would be similar to Guardians of the Galaxy.....and have lots of funny moments..............would love to see Mandrake - Flash Gordon - Lothar and Company all get a revamp as well and breathe new life into a wonderful cartoon from back in the days.......🔥❤️
True
Look up the Vitruvian HACKS action figures. I think you will like them.
One of my extremely favorite childhood animated series and still my extremely favorite
So cool watching this show again. The funny thing is sing this theme song and others in my head from time to time. From 3 to 6 after school was great growing up, this show and many others made for a fun afternoon watching cartoons especially in the winter when the days were short. So much fun!!!👍👍👍
Ahh; my favorite childhood heroes!!! Would love to see it in a movie in theaters someday
Amazing man thanks for sharing 🤘💪😎used to watch these with a milkshake or cola now I have the Wine out , This Saturday gonna be lit anychance you can upload The Centurions too

Used to watch this after high school in 85
Thank you for uploading...
So, kid throws a rock and takes out a space fighter. If I had tried that as a kid, that puny rock would have bounced off the cockpit shield, and the fighter would have roasted me whole.
Wow haven’t watched this for years! Bring back childhood memories ❤. Love the phantom!
Bloody hell! The memories mate 👍
How many 80s kids would have even known who any of these guys were? These are pulp comic book characters from the 30s and 40s.
I know of Flash Gordon and Mandrake. Never watched this. Was into Visionaries / M.A.S.K / Thundercats / Bravestarr
My brothers had this on VHS, I watched as a kid in the 90's
80s kid here. I know of these characters indeed, but back in the day I was more into DC and Marvel heroes.
Gracias genial episodio con Phantom y mandarle mis personajes favoritos 👌👏
15:30 I call upon the power of TEN TIGERS!
...Here's 7...
You got change of 20?
To be fair they did give him 13 later to make up for the 7
Shit .... take me back to those days
In 1980s, in India there wasn't a team of these super heroes. Phantom was a separate comic , and mandrake hojo and lothar was different comic. No flash gorden etc were ever released.
Fantastic! Thank-you!
Our pleasure!
What these people don't get is that the phantom has to be a man.
I'm not being mosaganistic, but unless the phantom has another child, a SON in hiding then the bad guys will know that the phantom is not immortal but a normal person
Makes sense, that means he has to stay white too, lol.
Exactly
These people?!?!
Also Jedda is massively powerful
Never apologize for your beliefs
@@tonynelligan1930 lol I know in that case let's make a movie about MLK and have a white actor play the character, or black panther, falcon, Stuart Green Lantern. Let all these characters be played by white actors.
I bet someone tries and there will be a huge uproar over it calling it racist or white washing 🤔.
I say enough of this crap! It's like that person wanting to make a black Queen Elizabeth just because why not. Just stop it.
I love this serie too much 😀!
Thank you! Please check out the other series on our channel.
My old memory for this show thank you for uploader
You are most welcome! Enjoy!
The full 65 episode series was shown in 1986 USA Syndication/1988 UK (BBC) three feature films for TV were done to sell the series to various TV stations in early 1986
I love this i can't believe i totally forgot this amazing show during my childhood. It's amazing how much life changes when you grow up we forget the simplest things that makes us happpy .some how i totally forget how amazing this cartoon series was. But im so glad that i was searching RUclips and came across one of my favourite cartoons shows... thank you guy's on RUclips so much than yall so much and whoever y'all are.
Welcome to our channel! Enjoy Defenders and please check out the other amazing series we have on this channel.
This is weird. It’s like what would happen if Peter Quill, William Zeppelli and Roadblock saved the world from the Mandarin, and Nimrod, who recently got a bargain on a bunch of shit from Cobra. Oh yeah, and the Phantom shows up with all of the powers of Vixen.
Hilarious!,, 😆 🤣 lol
90s is the best
I use to watch his cartoon when I was 10 now am 31
Used to love this, thundercats and captain planet as a kid.
Nostalgia... Beautiful memories
Legendary cartoon. Thanks for sharing ❤️
Glad that you are enjoying Defenders! Please check out the other series we have posted on this channel and our Popeye & Friends Official Channel: ruclips.net/channel/UCqvXAiNyn8pd9SVPclWfJTg
I still love all the 80s cartoons
Execution?! This got real real fast!!!!
They did an episode on drugs as well. The cartoons back then hit on some serious stuff
