SUPERHEROES
From cartoons to comic books, these super-powered do-gooders fly onto the scene to battle evil and uphold justice.
THE ROCKETEER
Cliff Secord was just a hotshot pilot ... that is, until he straps a jet-propelled rocket to his back and dons the helmet of the Rocketeer, thereby taking on the mantel of one super superhero.
HERCULES
Being the son of Zeus, King of the Gods, has its perks: super-strength, immortality, a ticket to fame and fortune. But as our boy Herc soon learns, it takes more then that to be a true hero.
GEORGE OF THE JUNGLE
Like his more prestigious vine-swinging predecessor, he was raised by jungle apes. But unlike Tarzan, our boy George displays his simian-like abilities with a lot more ... gusto? Wit? Style? What ever it is, he's still tops in our book.
BUZZ LIGHTYEAR
As an elite soldier of Star Command, he is one ace Space Ranger ... even if he is just a toy. When pal Woody is toy-napped, our Buzz rallies the troops to rescue him - even if he doesn't want to be rescued.
MR. INCREDIBLE
Being a super can be a drag, what with all the politicians and lawyers involved. Given a chance to strut his stuff once again, Bob Parr, insurance rep, ditches the cubicle and is back in the tights in no time, with his wife and kids soon following his lead.
