Those Groovy Saturday Mornings: Fantastic Voyage

Hey, hey, hey, Groove-ophiles! Here's a trippy trip down memory lane: Filmation's Fantastic Voyage! The ABC-TV cartoon was kinda-sorta based on the movie of the same name, but this time instead of micro-surgery, our heroes were going to use their miniscule might to battle the enemies of freedom! I know that's a fact, 'cause Ted Knight says so in the intro! Check it out...





But we're here for the comics, baby! The short-lived cartoon series had an even shorter-lived comicbook series published by Gold Key. I haven't been able to track down any credits for those comics, so if you have any info, please share it with Ol' Groove! Meantime, just dig on the first story from Gold Key's Fantastic Voyage #1 (May, 1969), "The Seed of Power!"
