One of the most beloved subjects for the creation of cartoon characters in America is the dog. Countless dogs have graced movie and television screens as animated characters - too many to cover in one short article in fact. There must be something special about the comical nature of canines that makes them such ready targets to become humorous cartoon characters, but there have been plenty to choose from.

thought to take the 1970's fads of "blacksploitation" and Kung Fu movies and make it into a kids cartoon show. They pulled it off, though, with this "number one super guy" that was voiced by the late, great Scatman Crothers.
