Jan 1, 196330 min

In the first episode of this series we see how Hercules came to earth. Since he wins a sporting competition against his friend Theseus, Zeus rewards Hercules by granting his wish to go to earth and fight evil and injustice. Since Hercules would lose his powers on earth, Zeus gives Hercules a "magic ring" which grants him godly strength while on earth.

Series info

The Mighty Hercules is a low-budget animated series based loosely on the Greek mythological character of Heracles, under his Roman Mythology name, Hercules. It was created in 1962 and then debuted on TV in 1963 and ran until 1966 coinciding with the sword and sandal genre of films popular at the time. Each standalone episode runs approximately 5 minutes with opening and closing credits, and in syndication several such episodes are compiled to fill 30-minute timeslots. It has played in re-runs on early morning television ever since, and is a cherished memory from many of our childhoods. The show was based on the myth of Hercules, and featured characters such as Hercules, Newton, Helena, Daedalus, The Sea Witch, and Murtis.
