Space Ghost (Thaddeus Bach) is a fictional superhero created by Hanna-Barbera Productions in the 1960s for TV network CBS. He was designed by Alex Toth.[1]

 

In his original incarnation, he was a superhero who, with his teen sidekicks, Jan and Jace, and Blip the monkey, fought supervillains in outer space.[2] In the 1990s, Space Ghost was brought back as a host for his own fictional late-night talk show, Space Ghost Coast to Coast, on Cartoon Network, Adult Swim and GameTap. In the 2000s, he was revamped as a serious superhero once again in a mini-series by DC Comics.

 

The original series debuted in September 1966. Space Ghost was voiced by Gary Owens, who is best known for being the announcer for Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In.[3]

 

In the original series, Space Ghost was an intergalactic crime fighter from the Ghost Planet. He had the ability to be invisible (Inviso Power) (via his belt), fly, and survive in space. His principal weapons were his power bands which displayed multiple beam-based attacks including heat, cold, magnetism, energy, and force among others.[1] Space Ghost's sidekicks are Jan, Jayce, and their pet monkey Blip.

 

Space Ghost would fight such recurring supervillains as:

 

Zorak - A villain from a race of insectoids called Dokarian.

 

Lizard Slavers - A race of reptilian humanoids that capture humans and sell them as slaves.

 

Black Widow - A spider-themed villain who controls the Tarantopods and other insects.

The character was re-named the Spider Woman in seven episodes. In "Revenge of the Spider Woman", Black Widow/Spider Woman teamed up with the Lizard Slavers and took control of some aquatic creatures.

 

Creature King - An alien who uses a mind-control helmet to control the minds of different intergalactic animals.

 

Metallus - A mechanical alien.

Brak - A feline alien and space pirate.

 

Moltar - The creator of the Magma Men.

 

The original series shared time with an unrelated segment called Dino Boy in the Lost Valley. During its original run, there were a total of 42 Space Ghost episodes and 18 Dino Boy episodes. The series ended in 1968,[4] but remained in syndication during the 1970s.[5]

 

The final bunch of episodes had Metallus, Creature King, Zorak, Moltar, Brak, and Black Widow coming together as the Council of Doom to destroy Space Ghost. They were defeated by Space Ghost and were assumed to have gotten away when their headquarters was destroyed.
