The Mighty Heroes: The Junker, Ralph Bakshi/Terrytoons, !966
As I understand it, Terrytoons was fairly notorious for wanting to crank out animation as cheaply, crappily and quickly as possible. Ralph Bakshi directed this series when he was a young man of 27. It bears the early marks of his thoughtful television character design, which was styled specifically to work well with limited animation.
