When I was 6, I dreamed that Superman was showing me his new car. And in the dream, as a six year old, I was thinking, “Why do you need a car?”
Writer Cary Bates says that the Supermobile was created as a promotional tie-in for the Corgi Toys toy line: "In my opinion, whenever merchandising needs are dictating story content, the odds of any real creativity or inspiration are severely compromised".
Yah, we could tell...
In the '80s that was reversed. Most of the cartoons were created to sell toys
You mean the teenage mutant ninja turtles, trained to operate in the shadows, didn't really need a blimp??
About as much much as Rainbow Brited needed a horse
Or Liono needed a sword
Or the Silverhawks needed existence
Two things.
1: People hardly ever look up
2: They had access to the water mains, and probably spiked the city water with LSD before they took the blimp out.
