Jellystone (BurningRhino Style) Last Wave

Yeah, I figured I might as well include the Biskitts and Moby Dick since there were more that I want to illustrate in my style. Left to right are Waggs, Lady, Shiner and Scat

The Funky Phantom is a lot of things: he's a ghost from the revolution, he's one of the many mascots to a group of mystery solvers, he's Lord Infernicus and he's a wrestler who once went against The Mighty Mightor

Space Wanderers: The Galaxy Trio, Space Ghost, Quack-Up and Scare Bear from Space Race and Galaxy Goof-ups and Bleep from Josie and the Pussycats in Outer Space

I went with the Super Secret designs from 2 Stupid Dogs because I thought they looked cooler and the buffalo version of the chief is more diverse compared to the original. I probably should have included Penny for more diversity but oh well

Miscellaneous: I was thinking about filling in one more character in that space like Glump from The Valley of Dinosaurs or Dynomutt but then I just gave up halfway through. Sorry

Finally: the series that are so well known that they only get cameos but only as images on objects, voices heard off-screen from a movie or a hallucination

Just today I found out about an old 1960's cartoon that featured a prehistoric superhero who teamed up with Moby Dick, the literal public domain white whale being the plucky animal helper back in prehistoric times and I find myself wanting to see someone's long winded essay on that and what it means for the novel to incorporate that into continuity. Just, deranged alternate history the god in the shape of a whale that turned against man with the loss of his superhero buddy. I haven't actually read Moby Dick and media analysis is not a skill I managed to develop very well so it will never be.

It's called the Mighty Mightor and from the look of the guy I think they wanted to use Thor but likely ran into copyright issues (I don't know this, I'm guessing it based on 'He-Man is kid-friendly Conan' sort of trivia) so amusingly in the opening Moby Dick gets top billing as the one with the name recognition.

Cartoon Heroes Paper Cut-Outs

The Mighty Mightor

In the prehistoric era, a teenage caveman named Tor rescued an ancient hermit from an Allosaurus. As a reward, the hermit bestowed unto Tor a magical club. When raising this club to the sky and exclaiming 'Mightor!' he is magically transforms into a masked superhero. He becomes the mighty Mightor, possessing superhuman strength and the power of flight as well as energy blasts that fire from his club. 

Along with his winged pet dinosaur named Tog, Mightor protected his village from all manner of evil doers.  Many, many years later, Mightor would become a court judge and presided over a number of the cases litigated by Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law.   

Actors Bobby Resnick and John Stephenson voiced the hero (in his regular and superhuman form respectively).  Created by Hanna-Barbera Productions, Mightor first appeared in the debut episode of Moby Dick and Mighty Mightor.  The show ran for a single season premiering in September of 1967.

Hey everyone guess who has a new Instagram account for Cartoon Network infographics! The newest one is about the overall continuity of Cartoon Network programming and how the Cartoon Network canon predates the network itself. I will probably repost a few more of these on here eventually but here's a preview of the page for now

Is there a Cartoon Network Multiverse?

The short answer is most likely. The long answer takes a little history. Cartoon Network was originally established to house the Hanna-Barbera library of animated series. Hanna-Barbera cartoons already had an established history of multi series continuity that predates CN, so likewise this continuity followed the shows onto the network.

This HB animated canon was established over a long history of crossovers. There's honestly enough of theses crossovers to be slightly overwhelming so here's three examples to jump off from if you are interested in diving into the older series

Space Ghost (1967) (Council of Doom arc) (The last 2 Space Ghost episodes (six segments), were dedicated to introducing series that were following after Space Ghost in production including The Herculoids, Mighty Mightor, and Shazzan)

The New Scooby-Doo Movies (1972) (This series is known for its guest stars, and this includes characters from other HB produced series; Josie and the Pussycats, Jeannie, and Speed Buggy)

Yogi’s Gang (1973) (Contains 20 different series worth of characters including Yogi Bear, Huckleberry Hound and Wally Gator fighting the likes of Dr.Bigot and sutch)

These series are three of the dozens of crossovers HB characters that existed before there was even a Cartoon Network.

When Cartoon Network was established, and eventually introduced its own series, at first it was implied these series were part of the older countuity. For instance Dexter's lab had a crossover with Dynomutt and The Blue Falcon, while Space Ghost and Birdman both cameo in an episode of The Powerpuff Girls.

Around the second half of CN G1, Cartoon Network shows started to move away from the prime HB timeline and focused more on individual series being self contained, however the crossovers never really slowed down, with a large amount of crossover material including; Cartoon Cartoon Fridays,the Cartoon Network City bumpers, Fusion Fall, Crossover Nexus, Punch Time Explosion, and even an upcoming (as of publishing) episode of Jellystone

HB being a multiverse in particular was already established by at least the 1980s in “Space Stars”, in with the “Teen Force” characters regularly and casually traveling between alternative dimensions, but continues to today with CN works like “Adventure Time: Fionna and Cake”, which goes into detail about the logistics of Adventure Time’s central multiverse, and, by extension Cartoon Network’s larger multiverse as a whole. There's even a very telling “The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack” cameo.
