Thread 149882008

Darkseid, his son Kalibak, Desaad and the Parademons made their first appearance outside comics in the 1984 season of Superfriends ("The Legendary Super Powers Show"). The gods of New Genesis didn't exist and Darkseid was introduced with the motivation of forcing Wonder Woman to marry him rather than discovering the Anti-Life Equation.

He was such a chump In this, I'm surprised his reputation ever recovered.

They look so weird next to all those goofy cartoony aliens.

Test audience for Pixar's Hoppers.
They didn't like it.

Why are there no shadows?

There's an episode involving Darkseid at a space auction and the line "Nobody outbids Darkseid!" always makes me chuckle when I think about it.

This looks a lot like a story where a villian is forced to walk in the shoes of his victims and grows a conscience.

How did i not learn of this until now?

fun fact: Rene Auberjonois voiced Desaad in Superfriends here and then later came back to voice him in Justice League, being one of the rare castings in this show to reprise in other media.
