Yes, I think she really is. Wonder Woman is good, and so is Supergirl and the She-Hulk, but Isis stands out with some major differences.
1. She can control the earth and the sky, essentially, EVERYTHING. How cool and powerful is that?!
2. You have to admit, the transformation process is really good.
3. The most important part of all is the moral of the episode(s). Superman really can't say that. And considering that the "villains" aren't necessarily people who wear ski masks and black gloves, it shows that even the most ordinary of people can make a mistake that needs super help.
This show is really cool and the DVD set has tons of bonuses. Its really worth the price.

The DVD package is awesome. No double sided disks. Just 3 one sided disks that are clearly marked. The set includes some really great photos on the disc covers and a booklet with a little about each episode. The commentary is informative and the interviews with all the other casts members and behind the scenes people are wonderful and detailed. There's even a bonus cartoon featuring Isis and a collection of pictures of Isis toys and memorabilia. I wish every DVD set were as well put together as this set is.
I watched Isis as a kid. I had some of the comic books based on the show, too. I loved her. I wasn't interested in boy superheros. I wanted girl superheros, and at the time, the only other 3 I knew of (being only 8) was Wonder Woman, Batgirl and Supergirl. Wonder Woman was not a show on TV yet, nor was Supergirl and Batgirl was only seen here and there on Batman reruns. Isis was the first live action girl superhero to have her own show. However, it wasn't because she was first and only, but because she really is cool, that I loved her and still do. The power to command earth and sky pretty much covers it. Isis can fly like Supergirl and is strong like Wonder Woman, but unlike them, she can command air, time, water and land. She controls physics. That kind of makes her about as powerful as you can be, really.
Sure the picture is a little washed and looks dated. That's part of the charm, especially for those of us who watched it on TV first. But for me, I watched it on an old black and white TV, so this was a real treat to see it in color. Also, the lessons taught on the show still stand up today. We've come a long way on some issues, but there's still plenty of bigotry around and other lessons about "being good" or "being responsible" are as meaningful today as ever, maybe more so. I'm so glad to see these again and be able to share them with my daughter who thinks Isis is pretty cool, too.

Isis originates way before the Arabian invasion of Egypt. I'm European and even I wouldn't mind seeing an African, or Arabian and African mixed adaption of this story. It's disrespectful if you think about it. An alright tale without an authentic cast. Imagin a latin Julius Ceaser story and you get where i'm coming from. Alright story though.

Fast delivery. This is a fun trip down memory lane. Wonder what the Isis of today would be like?

This series came after Wonder Woman , it didn't quite do it but it was interesting with a message at the end of each episode that dealt with a moral lesson. It was done by the same people who would do shows such as Mission Magic, and later HE MAN and the Masters of the Universe. So if you want a good moral shows then thias is one for you.
