* In the ''Challenge of the Superfriends'' episode "Secret Origins of the Superfriends", how was Abin Sur's power ring able to make the mistake of bringing Lex Luthor to Abin Sur instead of Hal Jordan when it was specifically Hal Jordan who Abin Sur chose to be his successor? You'd think that Luthor tricking Hal Jordan into getting out of the cockpit wouldn't have had any effect.

*** To be fair, had Wonder Dog not been outside the base, they would have just had to wait for him to come out, then used the same trick with Wendy and Marvin present.

*** To be fair, this makes more sense than it looks like. Neither jet should be able to hold still in midair, and a helicopter's blades would threaten the balloon and cargo. Therefore, the most likely hero from the standard lineup of the time would be Superman, whose power of flight allows him to hover without pushing a lot of air around.

*** In point of fact, Manta didn't get a definitive origin story until the sixth issue of the ''Aquaman'' comic in 1993.

** Sometimes I wonder if the writers of 'Challenge of the Superfriends' thought Black Manta was a robot instead of a human. It's possible the cartoon was made months before it was revealed he was an african american man. He sounds so robotic in the cartoon.

* Legal Headscratcher, where do the original super friends fit in to the Time Warner division? Ever since the run there have been attempts to utilize the characters in the comics, in tv-shows,parodies etc. Sometimes they get the actual characters and sometimes they have to make expies of them. So for our more legal tropers, in areas of TW where DC and Hanna Barbera are separate which would lay claim to the likes of Apache Chief or the Wonder Twins?
