So what's the general consensus on the Marvel Super-Heroes program from the 1960's? DESU, it's kind of what got me into Sub-Mariner and Captain America

Jesus, Marvel is sabotaging them for fifty years.

>The X-Men made their first ever animated appearance on the The Marvel Super Heroes TV series in 1966 with Professor X commanding the original X-Men line-up of the Cyclops, the Beast, Marvel Girl, the Angel, and Iceman. The X-Men appeared in the Sub-Mariner episode "Dr. Doom's Day / The Doomed Allegiance / Tug of Death". Though the episode was adapted from Fantastic Four #6 (1962) and Fantastic Four Annual #3 (1965), Grantray-Lawrence Animation did not have the rights to the Fantastic Four (their series was produced by Hanna-Barbera), and so instead substituted the X-Men.[1] The X-Men are never referred to in this episode as the X-Men but rather as the Allies for Peace.[2] The characters kept their original looks and individual names from the comics..

The animation on them makes the H-B Fantastic Four and the 60's Spider-Man cartoons look better animated by comparison.

It's basically the first "motion comic," comic panels with just enough movement added to make them look animated.
It's got the shitty production and the cheap Canadian voice actors, but it is faithful to the comics, and some of the comics make pretty decent cartoon stories.
Also I liked most of the theme songs. The Iron Man theme is great and the Captain America theme has some Sondheim-esque complicated rhyming:
"If he's led
to a fight
and a duel
is due
Then the red
and the white
and the blue'll
come through
WHEN CAPTAIN AMERICA THROWS HIS MIGHTY SHIIIIIEEEEEELLLLLD!!!"

they're amusing relics with catchy theme songs. The best are the ones that adapted the Cap's Kooky Quartet era of the Avengers.

The "Allies For Peace" has their headquarters in the Baxter Building except it's called The Peace Building.

Also for some reason Hawkeye is on the X-Men or rather Allies For Peace.

Voices remind me of those old timey radio shows from pulp movies.
How weird is it to imagine the 60's Marvel Superheroes cartoon world as the world where the X-Men took the place of the Fantastic Four and were named the Allies For Peace? They probably had to deal with the FF's usual foes on top of their own foes too.

It wouldn't surprise me if the people who worked on the cartoons were either working in radio or grew up with the radio shows and pulp magazines.

The Hulk one sucked though.

Yeah, I like tricky rhymes but rhyming "gamma rays" with "Unglamoraze" (Unglamorous) is just too much.
