    A short-lived but decent show from HB

    In the 1950s, William Hanna and Joseph Barbera first made a name of themselves in the production of the theatrical Tom and Jerry cartoons. After a few years, they, for some reason, decided to go independent and make cheap television cartoons of which the duo became most famous for.

    In the mid-1980s, a toy company by the name of Hasbro released the first of their G.I. Joe series, a high-tech military themed animated TV adaptation of the company's action figures. The series was probably successful that it would have three later incarnations over the decades. And because of the series' success, Hanna Barbera decided to create a G.I. Joe style series which would be Sky Commanders.

    Sky Commanders is a show about two opposing teams, the Sky Commanders and the Raiders, who battle each other on a new continent. The leader of the Raiders wants to obtain and exploit a powerful new element from the continent to rule the planet, but the Sky Commanders are determined to prevent that. I best remember the show for the backpacks used by the characters which shoots a cable that connects between two mountains, and allows them to travel on them like a zip line. Like those G.I. Joe shows, the characters shoots lasers instead of bullets, and they also have other high-tech equipment. Anyway, this show still has some originality. Although it's been decades since I last saw this show on television, I was able to see all the episodes online recently.
