Moby Dick And Mighty Mightor is one of the many superhero-themed cartoons released by Hanna-Barbera, and these two are the standard two-pack of adventure in the vein of Frankenstein Jr. And The Impossibles, as they focus on heroes and adventures.
The main draw with the two segments is that unlike the previous show, each segment has an opening that explains the origins of each show. Mighty Mightor is set in the prehistoric era, where a teenage caveman named Tor saves an old hermit while on a hunting trip, and is granted a club that allows him to transform into Mightor, and change his dinosaur friend Tog into a dragon. Using his new powers, Mightor protects his village from all threats, and even save love interest Sheera or her brother, Little Rok, whose habit of pretending to be Mightor sometimes gets the kid into a situation.
Moby Dick is set in present time, as teenagers Tom and Tubb befriend the great white whale after he saves them from being shark food after a typhoon sweeps the two far from their uncle's sea vessel. Together with a pet seal named Scooby, Moby Dick protects the boys as the four take on the perils of the deep together.
Each of the 18 episodes contains two Mightor adventures and one Moby Dick episode. Each of the shorts chronicles a random adventures the heroes have. I prefer the Mightor shorts, mainly the ones without Little Rok, as I found that character to be a prehistoric pain in the neck made to always need rescuing and never learns to stay out of danger. The Moby Dick shorts I do not care about, as they are more light-hearted and are boring compared to the Mightor ones. I recommend this for those who are into classic cartoons.
