WMG / The Herculoids

Go To

Quasar is a Galactic Nature Preserve.
Zandor and family are forest rangers, protecting the rare and endangered species from poachers and loonies who'd exploit their exotic abilities.
  • It would make a lot of sense that the Herculoids are rare animals.
  • Well Word of God is that the series had originally been intended as Franchise/Tarzan Recycled In Space back when Hanna Barbera had thought Tarzan had become Public Domain, and many Tarzan stories (particularly in the films) involve his protecting the jungle from European poaching and exploitation. It makes sense this aspect would carry over into the re-tooling of the series.

Quasar is a dumping ground for biological experiments.
Explains the preponderance of super-powered monsters in their ecosystem.
