Production notes

Johnny Cypher is a brilliant scientist. He develops an ability to travel though inner space and combat the forces of evil throughout the universe.

One hundred and thirty-eight episodes of this cartoon were made (we are missing seven titles).

Originally developed for the United States and Japanese markets concurrently, when Warner Bros. bought out Seven Arts, it effectively stopped the American release of this show. Some shows did air in the U.S. in syndication in some markets.

Release date reflects first air date in Japan.

Four six-minute episodes made up one half-hour show.
