DVD features:
The Challenge of the Super Friends: Attack of the Legion of Doom DVD is rounded out by some slight extras that provide a few nuggets of background information on the Legion of Doom and the series itself. "Hall of Doom" is the most enjoyable feature, offering thumbnail sketches of each Legion member as well as a montage of their fiendish exploits. However, "Super Friend or Super Foe?" is an ill-explained identification game that asks viewers to find hidden Super Friends in a portrait of the Legion of Doom. Series story editor Jeffrey Scott contributes brief anecdotes about the program, which can be played before each episode; these bits are advertised as introductions, but this is somewhat misleading, as he doesn't mention anything specific about the four episodes. Finally, the main menu offers viewers the opportunity to play the episodes individually or all at once. --Paul Gaita

Amazon.com:
Warner Home Video aims to please viewers hungry for vintage Saturday morning animation with this DVD, which compiles the first four episodes of the popular 1978 super hero series. Challenge of the Super Friends was the third go-round with DC's heroes for producers Hanna-Barbera; the difference here is in the premise, which pits Superman, Batman et al. against their sworn enemies-Lex Luthor, the Riddler, and 11 other villains-who have joined together as the Legion of Doom and are dedicated to defeating the Super Friends. Scripting and animation in each episode is rudimentary by today's standards, which may be off-putting for younger viewers who are familiar with the recent Justice League series. But purists will appreciate the more serious tone of the episodes, and how closely they hew to the original comics, and fans of all stripes should enjoy the cliffhanger action and the over-the-top machinations of the Legion of Doom. --Paul Gaita

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Older Superfriends Are Better!
I purchased this dvd for my kids who are now in to the superfriends. We had watched several of the newer superfriend episodes and they are not the same ones we watched growing up. They really loved this dvd of the older superfriends.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Probably the best of all superman cartoons on DVD
My 3 1/2 years old son watches this dvd over and over again.

I have bought him all 3 justice league dvd which are the newer version with better color, sound... But, for a 3 years old this does not really seems to matter much since after I got him this DVD I have a hard time playing him the justice league ones.

I highly recommend this one for your kids. They will enjoy this one over and over and over again.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great content, poor package design
I may yet buy this DVD someday, as I always enjoyed the Superfriends series in all variations especially Challenge of the Superfriends where this comes from. I will review the disc itself when I buy it, but for now I just have one question which hopefully people will take notice of when they do buy it. This is a compilation of "Challenge of The Superfriends" episodes, who is the dumb cluck who designed the dvd case with the "Super Friends" logo of the first incarnation of the series which came ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - FLASH RUNS REALLY FAST
THIS IS A NICE TRIP DOWN MEMORY LANE IF YOU'RE PROPERLY BAKED.
TED KNIGHT IS THE NARRATOR...WHAT MORE COULD YOU ASK FOR?



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Fun incarnate
This DVD brings back the memories of being a kid, and enjoying the best of the years of Superfriends cartoons --- the "Challenge of the Superfriends" where they are pitted against the Legion of Doom. Fantastic voices, cheesy (but fun) storylines ... this DVD is pure fun. Its light fare when compared to the 90's Batman Animated series but still provides a good time.
