No, not the wacky talk show version on The Cartoon Network. I'm talking about the original cartoon that aired in the mid-60s.
Space Ghost and Dino Boy will be released on July 17. And since this is one of those "it's not official yet but it's definitely happening" deals, no details about extras or features have been announced yet, but expect something in the next week or so.
I remember watching Space Ghost when I was a kid, the repeats not the original (I'm not that old), but I remember the show as being teamed up with another superhero named Frankenstein, Jr. Anyone else remember that? I distinctly remember the deep-voiced announcer saying, "Space Ghost!...And Frankenstein, Jr...Jr...Jr," the word echoing for a few seconds. Was this maybe two Hanna-Barbera shows being repackaged for the 70s?

Nah, "Frankenstein Jr." was, at least to my knowledge, only packaged with "The Impossibles," who were a rock band who were superheroes.

I remember Space Ghost & Frankenstein Jr., but I had
no recall of an hour show with both of them. Anyway,
Space Ghosr & Dino Boy, and Birdman & The Galaxy Trio
are both coming to DVD this Summer, and I can't wait
to add them to my collection. I hope Warner Bros.
will release the Popeye collection, Wally Gator &
Quick Draw McGraw on DVD sometime this year. I've
seen Dick Tracy, Pink Panther, Mr. Magoo, Rocky &
Bullwinkle, Underdog, Danger Mouse, Cool McCool &
Batfink all being released or coming to DVD, but my
favorites, Mighty Mouse, Woody Woodpecker & Felix
The Cat: The Complete Series have all been forgotten.
Why? Somebody there in cartoon land, tell me why?!
RICK.

Bob is right about the Frankenstein, Jr. pairing. I remember that, too. I DID see the original 1966ff airings with Dino Boy (I am that old), but I only remember that because it is an embedded memory within a much clearer memory of Space Ghost/Frankenstein, Jr. from just a few years later. I even had a toy projector that came with a "film" featuring both.
