    Frankenstein's Super Monster from "The Super Friends Meet Frankenstein" Nov. 3, 1979

    Dr. Baron Frankenstein vows to avenge the name of his great-great-grandfather by creating a new monster.



    When the Super Friends try to stop him they are captured and are forced to participate in his evil experiment.



    He drains the powers of Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman and gives them to HIS monster creating a SUPER MONSTER.





    Of course this is a cartoon and the Super Friends eventually prevail when Robin and the Wonder Twins and Gleek save the day.

    The Super Monster was created by cobbling together resin versions of an FTC SF Batman head and a Toy Biz Famous Covers Wolverine; cape, trunks, belt, lasso, chest emblem, and body from FTC; boots from a Toy Biz Famous Covers Daredevil; body suit by me with blue electrical tape used for Wonder Woman's bracelets.



    And, here is the Super Friends antagonist Dr. Baron Frankenstein with his creation... He is made with various FTC parts including a repainted Ra's al Ghul head.

                    Man, I remember that episode! It was one of my favorites, although I could've sworn that the monster had head bolts!

                    Memory plays tricks on you.

                    This is all kinds of awesome
                    Warm up?! We may as well sit around this cigarette!

                      Hey, is the title of the episode really Super Fiends?
