It is funny how these cartoons sort of predicted who would eventually go on to play Wolverine in the movies.

Watched the VHS I had of this so many times as a kid. I dug that shit...but was creeped out by the ad in the beginning of the tape, featuring Spider-Man urging people to register to vote. It had such a weird vibe.

I always got a kick out of Australian Wolverine as a kid. Like this? |

I wonder if that footage of Spider-Man from the intro (aside from the shots of him signing his name) was test footage from a unreleased live-action spider-man film.

You know, I've seen this video at least three time in the last twenty years, yet I don't remember the animation ever looking this good as it does in the AT4W clips. Definitely a step up from Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends.
I know everybody likes to comment on "Australian Wolverine", but honestly the voice that always seemed so wrong to me is Cyclops', yet for the life of me I can't say why. It just sounds so off.
And of course I can easily see why this didn't go to series because it didn't feature the greatest X-Men member of all time - Videoman!!!

Oh, if only I could've had Nightcrawler, Dazzler, and Colossus on regular weekly television!

Slightly off topic...but what would be the explanation (besides "that's what he was wearing in the comics") in this show for the brown Wolverine outfit? IIRC, he wore the brown one as his way of mourning the loss of Jean Grey.

I dig the art work. I think the show looks beautiful at least.

Spider-man is a menace! He's teaching kids to commit voter fraud!

Yeah, Cyclops's voice doesn't sound anything like I would expect him too. |

Put it in the context of the time and it was fine. As a kid, with no X-men cartoon yet, I liked it a lot

The worst Cyclops voice has to be the one heard in A Firestar Is Born (which I also watched on VHS hundreds of times along with this). Wasn't one instance of Scott in the '80s done by Michael Bell doing his Duke voice?

IIRC, he wore the brown one as his way of mourning the loss of Jean Grey. Didnt Mariko give him the brown suit? And who needs an explanation in the show. Thats the one he wore, anyone picking up the comics at the time would see the same suit, good enough. |
