Review: Warner Home Video has been great about releasing the old Super Friends shows to DVD over the past few years. This volume is no exception. Following re-runs of the original Super Friends show from Saturday, February 7, 1976 to Saturday, September 3, 1977, the All New SuperFriends Hour premiered on Saturday, September 10, 1977. The series, which featured four animated shorts per episode, was shown until Saturday, September 2, 1978. This series introduced the superheroes in training: the Wonder Twins! The Wonder Twins consisted of Zan and Jayna, along with their pet space monkey Gleek. Cameos in this series included the Flash (Barry Allen), Green Lantern (Hal Jordan), Hawkman, Black Vulcan (a take-off of Black Lightning) , Apache Chief and Samurai

The DVD set is great. It has a nice feature on the Wonder Twins and why exactly they were so popular (I'm still not sure! lol), however, that is all for extra features. The menus are nice (see images) and the transfer on the episodes is as good as can be expected. I highly recommend this DVD set to any Batman/Dc Comics fan!
