The Marvel Super-Heroes consisted of five different segments, each starring a well-known superhero from a particular Marvel comic¿ Captain America, The Incredible Hulk, Iron Man, The Sub-Mariner, and Thor. In order to meet the demands of presenting so many characters each week, the stories were told in a cliffhanger format, with 3 chapters per episode, thus requiring fewer scripts. The creators also saved time through the use of ¿Xerography¿, a process that allowed animators to copy pencil sketches directly onto animation cels, thereby saving them from having to redraw any scenes. While this technique resulted in a severe stiffness of the characters and almost no movement, it allowed the animators to churn out regular battles between our heroes and their super-powered nemeses. Despite the limited animation, The Marvel Super-Heroes won its share of loyal fans. Namor, Captain America, and Thor continued to guest-star in later Marvel cartoons, while The Incredible Hulk and Iron Man eventually got new shows of their own. All 13 episodes and 39 chapters are included on 2-Discs.
The Incredible Hulk was a creation of Marvel Comics founder Stan Lee and artist Jack Kirby. The green-skinned Hulk was really Dr. Bruce Banner, a scientist who had helped develop a new bomb that used gamma rays to destroy its target. After accidentally being caught in the blast, Banner found himself transformed into a giant green creature with unbelievable strength. There were only two drawbacks: first, the good doctor had no control over his transformation; and second, when Banner became the Hulk, he retained none of his alter ego¿s intelligence or memories, essentially becoming a completely different (and angrier) person. While the Hulk usually ended up fighting simply to protect himself, the general public saw him as a threat. His one friend and ally was young Rick Jones, the only other person who knew that the Hulk and Bruce Banner were one and the same.
