The first American version of ''[[Science Ninja Team Gatchaman]]''. Heavily [[Macekre|Macekred]]d by the infamous Sandy Frank Productions. You know, the guy who dubbed the ''[[Gamera]]'' movies, ''[[Fugitive Alien]]'', and ''[[Time of the Apes]]''.
 
''Battle of the Planets'' was one of the few anime that meets Alex Ross's approval, and some illustrations that he did for the series led to both him doing the cover illustrations of [[ADV Films]] release of ''[[Science Ninja Team Gatchaman|Gatchaman]]'' and to a short-lived [[Revival]] comic series published by Top Cow Productions from 2003-2004, which tried [[Adaptation Distillation|to combine elements from both the original and the adaptation into a whole]].
Line 23:
* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]: Say what you will about editing, the voice acting here seems better than the later English dubs. It features the voices of Keye Luke, Alan Young, and Casey Kasem.
** Don't forget [[The Jetsons|Janet]] [[Josie and the Pussy Cats|Waldo!]]
** And Zark is [[DuckTales (1987)|Scrooge McDuck!]]: Alan Young, who was also Wilbur on'' [[Mister Ed|Mr. Ed.]]''
** The narrator is [[Laugh In|Gary Owens!]]
* [[Human Aliens]]: The Spectrans are completely humanoid. --This is because, in ''Gatchaman,'' they ''were'' human!-- The Top Cow comic lampshades this and claims Zoltar's boss the [[Eldritch Abomination|Luminous One]] grew them from human DNA, to replace the extinct original Spectran race.
