ADVENTURES OF HUCK FINN

The character designs for this series were created by Alex Toth, Iwao Takamoto, and others.

The New Adventures of Huckleberry Finn was a half-hour live-action/animated series produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions on NBC prime-time in 1968, based on the famous Mark Twain characters. In it, Huck Finn (Michael Shea), Becky Thatcher (Lu Ann Haslam) and Tom Sawyer (Kevin Schulz) were constantly on the run from Injun Joe (Ted Cassidy), who sought revenge on them for testifying against him in court. (Tom and Huck witnessed Joe's murder of Dr. Robinson.) The episodes which ensued thrust them into various make-believe fantasy worlds; their surroundings were animated, while Huck, Becky and Tom themselves remained live-action, similar to Disney's "Mary Poppins." Each week, the villain of the story had an uncanny resemblance to Injun Jo (and was voiced by Ted Cassidy). The series itself aired from September 15, 1968 to September 7, 1969 for 20 episodes, airing Sunday evenings on NBC-TV at 7:00pm/6:00pm Central.
