Silverhawks (1986)
10/10
The best cartoon I saw in my childhood
22 January 2009
This is a great cartoon. I say so because I used to think it was the best one when I was a child. And now, that I'm an adult, I still think it's a great cartoon. Maybe the second best I've ever seen (only surpassed by The Simpsons).

The characters are great (especially the villains who are very complex and have many different abilities). To name some, The BountyHunter, The time-stopper, Mo-Lec-U-Lar, Windhammer, Mon-star, Zero, the memory thief, Melodia, Buzz-Saw etc.

As for the names, I don't think they are bad. But I say that the Spanish translations are better. For example: "SilverHawks" means Hawks made of silver, but not all of them were made of this metal: The Copper kid, SteelHeart, Steelwill, C. Stargazer (gold), Hotwing (gold) and Flashback (green). In Spanish they were called "Halcónes Galácticos" which means "Galactic Hawks" which is a better name, or at least more descriptive of them all.

The setting is amazing. There's an Artificial sun and the planets are beautiful: The Penal Planet, Hawkhaven, Bedlama, Dollare, The hanging Rock, etc.

I agree with the person that said (As for falling in space and characters not needing life support) that Limbo Galaxy has an artificial sun (which, technically should be artificial star...), possibly there is artificial gravity or a black hole.

Finally, I would love Hollywood to make a Silverhawks movie o Warner to make a new season of the Greatest Hawks ever.
