Jonny Quest

Jonny Quest (often referred to, but never titled on screen, as The Adventures of Jonny Quest) is an American science fiction/adventure animated television series about a boy who accompanies his father on extraordinary adventures. It was produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions for Screen Gems, and created and designed by comic book artist Doug Wildey. Inspired by radio serials and comics in the action- adventure genre, it featured more realistic art, characters, and stories than Hanna-Barbera's previous "cartoon" programs. It was the first of several Hanna-Barbera action-based adventure shows, which would later include Space Ghost, The Herculoids, and Birdman and the Galaxy Trio, and ran on ABC in prime time for one season in 1964-1965. After spending two decades in reruns, new episodes were produced for syndication in 1986. Two telefilms, a comic book series, and a more modern revival series (The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest) were produced. A live-action feature film is reportedly in development.
