Space
Ghost is one of the most popular superheroes to come out
of Saturday morning and is still watched by many children
today. Unlike comic book heroes, Space Ghost originated
on television, embodying animation in the 60’s.
Legendary animator Alex Toth's use of bright colors, sleek
lines and an almost sinister costume gave Space Ghost an
undefinable hipness that TV watchers immediately clung to.
The hero's name stemmed from the fact that he was able to
make himself invisible through the use of high-tech wizardry.
He could also shoot heat rays, cold rays and plain old power
blasts from the bands on his wrists.
