I can honestly say this a more ideal addition than the former DVD versions of this show. This one contains all the episodes when it comes to the 11 Superfriends vs. the Legion of Doom (13). It might be the case that there were other episodes with the title of "Challenge of...", but I can't quite think of a single episode that sticks out in my mind. With "first season" in this title, it does imply subsequent season of the show. Anyhow this DVD edition is enjoyable with welcomed and somewhat amusing commentary in two of the episodes. If I had any negative to express it would be that I wish the bios of both the heros and villians were more detailed. For example, where did Sinestro come from, why did he have a fallout with the Guardians of Oa, where did he get his power ring, what/where is Qward, etc? I know the answers from investigating on the Internet, but the DVD briefly refers the viewer to the comic book series in which the villians first appear. So find, read, and learn from the comic books and there you'll find your answers. Enough said -- Enjoy.

With Wendy, Marvin & Wonderdog gone, (thankfully) The Superfriends now face their greatest challenge...13 of the most evil villians are on the loose and causing chaos. Watch the members of the Hall of Justice battle the Legion of Doom in many exciting episodes. Watch the Legion of Doom penetrate the fabric of time itself and go into the past and into the future. Only the Superfriends can stop them! Great stuff!

Picked this up as a lark and absolutely loved it! Yup it looks like a 70's Saturday morning cartoon (that's what it was), but the plots of these things are soo "out there" that every episode makes for incredible escapism. They don't make em like this anymore! There's so much imaginative action packed into each episode. There are so many super heroes and 13 fun evil maniacs in each episode bent on taking over the universe (!) that it all makes for ultra fun viewing. If you love classic cartoons and comics then ya gotta get this! If you haven't seen this before then give it a look. If you haven't seen it in years then look at it again. This set is super fun!

This is one great set of DVD nostalgia-magic! The Legion of Doom HAS to be one of the greatest sets of villains ever created! Who can compete with Lex Luthor, Cheetah, Giganta, Black Manta, Toyman, Sinestro, Bizzaro, and the Riddler just to name a few! No one but the Superfriends! The plots for these shows were soo intellectual...no wonder we children from the late 70s-early 80s turned out so well. I wouldn't be caught dead watching the dribble/fluff they have for cartoons now. Even twenty years later, the Superfriends are still standing the test of time. Both children and adults like them...and cartoon spin-offs (such as Batman, Teen Titans, etc.) are being made as a result of them. So, if you love comics, the Superfriends, or the Legion of Doom, you have to get this DVD set. Now, if they will just release the rest of the Superfriends cartoon catalog on DVD, I will be grateful (even though I hate the Wonder Twins!! LOL)!!
