The Bionic Six was an
80's cartoon co-created by LJN Toys that was produced in
1987 and ran for two years. The basic plot was that Jack Bennet ( Bionic-1 ) had
bionic powers and fought crime
without his family suspecting anything. . . until their
plane crashed and they were saved by also being
turned bionic. The family goes on to
fight crime and tell
wisecracks until the show was cancelled. The show was shortly revived in the late
90's on
the sci-fi channel.
