====''Mighty Mouse: The New Adventures''====
{{Main | Mighty Mouse: The New Adventures}}In 1987 and 1988, animation producer [[Ralph Bakshi]] (who began his career at Terrytoons in the late 1950s and worked on the last Mighty Mouse shorts filmed by that company) created a new series of Mighty Mouse cartoons entitled ''[[Mighty Mouse: The New Adventures]]'' for the [[CBS]] Saturday morning children's lineup. In this series, Mighty Mouse has a real identity, Mike Mouse (both identities voiced by [[Patrick Pinney]]), and a sidekick, [[Mighty Mouse: The New Adventures#Cast|Scrappy Mouse]] (voiced by actress [[Dana Hill]]), the little orphan. Though a children's cartoon, its heavy [[Satire|satirical]] tone, risqué humor and adult jokes made the Bakshi Mighty Mouse series a [[Collectable|collector's item]] for collectors of older television series.

The best-remembered episode of this series featured a crossover with Mighty Mouse and another Bakshi creation, the Mighty Heroes (Strong Man, Tornado Man, Rope Man, Cuckoo Man and Diaper Man). In the 1988 episode "Heroes and Zeroes", the Mighty Heroes were middle-aged men (except for Diaper Man, who was 36) and were all accountants with the firm of Man, Man, Man, Man, and Man.<ref>{{cite book|title=Hero-A-Go-Go: Campy Comic Books, Crimefighters, & Culture of the Swinging Sixties|first=Michael|last=Eury|publisher=TwoMorrows Publishing|year=2017|page=117|isbn=9781605490731}}</ref>
