Hyde and Hyde Dog.
Mr. Hyde, alias Willie The
Weasel, abetted by Hyde Dog, demands to be mayor of Big
City, threatening its citizens with a sinister formula
that turns them into evil Hyde-like creatures. Blue Falcon
and Dog Wonder, assisted by the Scooby-Doo detectives,
plan to trap the wily Mr. Hyde and agree to his request.
Once this results, Mr. Hyde, via his terrible greed, is
snared into a wild falcon fracus: Dynomutt captures Hyde
Dog and the antidote that will save Big City, with Blue
Falcon's Falconclaw scooping up the fleeing Willie The
Weasel, b.k.a. Mr. Hyde. After being commended by the

accidentally gets caught in one of Shaggy's Scooby-traps!

First Aired September 18, 1976
Dog Wonder and B.F., teamed
with the Scooby-Doo crimestoppers, meet Lowbrow, a villain
desiring to be king of crime employing the knowledge from
the books of Big City University to further his dastardly
schemes. This primitive thief unwittingly leads Blue
Falcon, Dynomutt and Scooby Doo and company to his lair,
where they discover his latest plan: robbery of Big City
Mint! Blue Falcon and Dynomutt set a trap for Lowbrow and
thwart his evil plans, using an "Instant Delayed Action
Falcon Balloon," which captures him and neatly deposits
him into prison. Later, at a restaurant, Blue Falcon and
Dynomutt treat Scooby and friends to a turkey dinner, for
their help in apprehending Lowbrow. Dyno volunteers to
carve the turkey, but, instead of a Dyno-carving Knife,
his paws malfunctioningly turn into Dyno-Mallets, which
pound the poor turkey mercilessly flat. ("Anybody for

Dog Wonder, in assisting his master, hampers matters with
his usual unique mechanical malfunctions. The Gimmick
appears to be the villainous victor, as he robs a bank and
a jewelry store and then attempts to capture the treasure
of Prince Ringpur. In the end, Dynomutt's mechanical
genius finds the lair of the evil villain despite his
comical screwups, and, with the aid of his Dyno-Jets, he
chases down and catches a fleeing, hanggliding Gimmick.
Later, after B.F. and D.W. are commended by Price Ringpur
of India, cameo guest star Lt. Mumbly takes time from his

Night Crawler, then Professor Ronald Hickman, was
transmogrified from an intelligent scientist into a worm),
The Blue Falcon and Dynomutt discover and try to stop the
villains' attempt to pilfer a multimillion dollar

Harbor. This fishy fiend then squeezes Big City dry of its
lifesupporting oil and demands $15 million in order to
ransom it. Blue Falcon manages to talk The Mayor into
paying the ransom by way of a falcon scheme to nab
Fishface; unfortunately, this scheme backfires when Dog
Wonder and Blue Falcon are captured and are about to
become shark bait. They nevertheless escape via an Dyno
Power Pack, and Dynomutt, turning into a giant fishing
pole (how symbolic!), manages to reel in Fishface and put
him out of circulation.
Production Notes:

America."
Episode 6: "Sinister Symphony"
Production No. 83-6
First Aired October 16, 1976
Using a sinister symphony,
Manyfaces, the malevolent, malicious master of a million
monstrous disguises, lulls Big City asleep, allowing him
to strip it clean. Donning earmuffs, Blue Falcon and
Dynomutt plan a trap, but Manyfaces avoids it when he and
his henchmen impersonate Chief Quimby, the Mayor, and
B.F.. Dog Wonder, unfortunately, apprehends the real B.F.,
mistakenly believing he has Manyfaces in disguise. Through
touching Dynomutt's one ticklish spot (he's the only one
who knows where it is), Blue Falcon manages to finally
convince Dynomutt he's the true B.F. and together they
pursue the real Manyfaces and his creepy cronies, who at
this time are driving down the street in a dumptruck piled
high with stolen loot. Manyfaces again tries to confuse
D.W. by his B.F. disguise, but this time Dog Wonder picks
his true blue buddy and Manyfaces is arrested.

here to check out an original model sheet for
Zorkon.
The Daring Duo meet
Superthug and Zorkon, two evil geniuses who have created a
superdynamic steel skeleton. Superthug steals every bit of
available steel from Big City, as he wants to mass-produce
these skeletons for every crook in Big City to use for
evil purposes. To counter this superfiend, B.F. straps
Dynomutt's hands and legs to his and challenges Superthug
with his Falcon-Dyno Superstrength Power Pack
Combination...and to steal the steel TV tower on top of
the TV station building. S.T. accepts the challenge, but
Dynomutt's usual rash of mechanical mishaps literally trip
up all of Blue Falcon's attempts to stop him. Superthug
makes off with the TV tower, while Blue Falcon winds up
being entangled in Dog Wonder's metallic limbs, defeated,
humiliated, and publicly disgraced. Since the superheroes
are unable to stop Superthug, secret agent Focus One has
no alternative but to fire The Blue Falcon and Dog Wonder
("Gosh! You'd think they could at least give a couple of
ex-superheroes 30 days' notice!"). In despair, the
unemployed champions of justice search out their former
adversary Superthug, attempting to join forces. He and
Zorkon fall for The Falcon Phoney Out-Of-Work Plan,
designed to deliberately trick Superthug into luring them
to his lair, and are captured before their sinister
superskeletons can be distributed.
Production Notes:
- Superthug reappears in "The Injustice League Of
America."
Episode 8: "Factory Recall"
Production No. 83-8
First Aired October 30, 1976
In trying to combat the
villainous Mr. Cool (a Mr. Freeze incarnate), whose cold
rays freeze everyone into solid ice, The Blue Falcon
accidentally drops his Falcon commumicator from his
Falconbelt in trying to save Dog Wonder, who has also been
fozen by the cold ray blast. The commumicator is
immediately snatched up by Mr. Cool. Once thawed out,
Dynomutt seems to be in worse shape than ever before,
forever irking Blue Falcon with his oafish chuckling.
Using the Falcon communicator device, Cool tricks B.F.
into believeing he is Focus One, telling him Dynomutt is
being recalled to the factory for a reprogramming. Dog
Wonder is then programmed by Cool into an evil D.W., who
nearly succeeds in ending Blue Falcon's career...and his
life! But, true to Dyno-malfunctioning tradition, he
botches his foul plan. While scaling a building with
Falcon Suctioncup Feet, D.W. captures B.F. and brings him
to Mr. Cool, who orders him to crush Blue Falcon under a
block of ice ("Get ready to become a chip under
the old block, B.F!"). Fortunately, yet another
Dyno-Dum-Dum prevents this, and B.F. escapes and
deprograms Dog Wonder back into his faithful crimefighting
old self again. Together, they track down Mr. Cool and his
cool, cruel cohorts and foil their attempt to freeze Big
City Bay into a block of ice. While the henchmen are
captured, Cool attempts a getaway in the Falconcar, but is
foiled by its Falcon Instant Anti-Car Thief Ejection Seat,
which springs him high into the air.
Episode 9: "The Queen Hornet"
Production No. 83-9
First Aired November 6, 1976
- Click
here to check out an original model sheet for The
Queen Hornet.
The Blue Falcon and
Dynomutt attempt to get evidence that will put away that
buzzing vixen, The Queen Hornet. They chase her after she
hijacks an armored car full of money, but, due to a string
of Dog Wonder Blunders, they are stuck in a tree. The
Queen Hornet uses her quick-drying "Honeysticker" on The
Daring Duo and brings them to the basement of The Hornet's
Nest nightclub (an appropriate GHQ for such a mean Queen),
where she hopes a swarm of her "little brothers and
sisters," her trained hornets, will build an unbreakable
nest around Blue Falcon and Dog Wonder. They are saved by
the Dyno Car Wash and jet by Falconcar overseas to catch
and stop Queen Hornet and her lackeys in the act of
stealing the famous moon diamonds from returning
astronauts. They trace her to the landing capsule, where
they discover the gooey "honey-sticker" has frozen the
astronauts immobile. D.W. cuts a hole in the bottom of the
capsule and dives out, activating his Dyno Flotation
Collar which succeeds in bringing the capsule, astronauts
and all to the surface. B.F. and D.W. then pursue Q.H.,
capturing her in The Dyno Bubble-Trap and recovering the
precious moon diamonds.
Production Note:
- The Queen Hornet is the first of 3 female vilains to
appear on Dynomutt Dog Wonder (or 4, if you
count The Serpent Lady, whom we'll later see disguised
as Ironface in "The Awful Ordeal With The Head Of
Steel"). She reappears in "The Injustice League Of
America."

Production No. 83-10
First Aired November 13, 1976
The Daring Duo encounter
the sinister Swamp Rat and Mudmouth, who've been hijacking
trucks in the Bogmyer Swamp for the purpose of stealing
their pumps. They use them to pump half of their swamp
into Big City, turning it into Bog City, a giant swamp so
muddy the citizens desert the city, leaving it unprotected
and easy fair game for The Swamp Rat and Mudmouth. Blue
Falcon and Dog Wonder, teamed with the Scooby Doo
crimebusters, manage to extricate themselves from becoming
gator bait and rush to the aid of the oozy Big City to
lure the swampy thieves into the open. There, B.F., to
allay Swamp Rat's suspicions, disguises Shaggy Rogers and
Scooby-Doo as Blue Falcon and Dynomutt, respectively, and
have them going the other way with the real Daring Duo
posing as expensive gold statues at The Big City
Convention Hall. The wily thieves, thinking B.F. and D.W.
are heading elsewhere, feel free to steal the gold
statues. When they learn of Blue Falcon's ruse, they flee
into the swamp, only to be captured via The Dynocopter and
apprehended.
Production Notes:
- This is the third and final guest appearance of
Scooby-Doo and the gang in a Dynomutt cartoon.
Episode 11: "Tin Kong"
Production No. 83-11
First Aired November 20, 1976
- Click
here to check out an original model sheet for Tin
Kong.
The Daring Duo meet evil
Eric Von Flick, a hack movie director who situates in the
abandoned Epic Studios just outside of Big City, who
attempts production of the greatest disaster movie of all
time: The Total Destruction Of Big City, starring
Tin Kong, a gigantic robot ape (no relation to Grape Ape,
mind you!). In Desperation, Blue Falcon uses the Dyno
Enlarging Powerpack, making Dog Wonder 50 times larger,
resulting in him stopping Kong in destroying a passenger
train. Suddenly B.F. is nabbed by Tin Kong!!! Dynomutt
turns into a Dynobiplane, flies up and shakes Dynopepper
into Tin King's nose causing him to sneeze and release
Blue Falcon. The Daring Duo snatches the chance to gain
entry inside T.K.'s control panel and reprograms him,
commanding him to scoop up the villainous VonFlick and his
minions in his enormous hands once and for all, ensuring
his last picture will be his prison photograph. Later, at
The Falcon's Lair, Dog Wonder, having reprogrammed Tin
Kong as a butler, calls for him to take out the trash.
T.K. reaches in the window, grabs Dynomutt, and neatly
deposits him into the Falcon Garbage Can.
Production Notes:
- Undoubtedly this was inspired by the 1976 remake of
the 1933 horror classic, King Kong.
- Dynomutt's encounter with The Twelve Million Dollar
Man at the celebrity roast is in reference to the
live-action drama
The
Six Million Dollar Man (ABC, 1973-78).
Episode 12: "The Awful Ordeal With The Head Of Steel"
Production No. 83-12
First Aired November 25, 1976
Ironface, bearing a bitter
grudge, seeks revenge on Big City and kidnaps the District
Attorney, Warden of Rockatraz, and Detective Malloy. Tis
fiend then lures The Daring Duo, Mayor Gaunt, Judge
Grater, Chief Grisby, and the Chief Prosecutor to his
yacht, aptly named Revenge, where they are all
kidnapped and shanghaied to his island fortress. Remaining
city officials disappear one by one, until Blue Falcon and
Dog Wonder allow themselves to be captured as well, hoping
to solve and foil this crime. When I.F. has all the
officials and The Daring Duo in a hige prison cell, he
relates the reason for his vengeance: he spent 10 years in
Rockatraz Prison and now wants them all to spend the same
number of years in his prison. Dynomutt chews
some shrinking gum and shrinks down to size, picks the
lock, and frees Blue Falcon and the officials. The Daring
Duo then capture a fleeing Ironface in The Dyno-Yo-Yo, and
unmasks him to be the sinister Serpent Lady. She is then
recaptured, exchanging her iron face for iron bars on
Rockatraz.

Episode 13: "The Blue Falcon Vs. The Red Vulture"
Production No. 83-13
First Aired November 27, 1976
The Red Vulture steals 2 of
the world's most powerful superjet engines, with plans to

City Superjet Races, but are immediately snagged by The
Vulturejet and trapped along with the crew aboard a cargo
jet recently robbed by R.V., which is slated to crash into
a mountain far ahead of them. With only 3 minutes to
spare, Dog Wonder extends his neck and arms into the
cockpit and steers the jet out of danger. Blue Falcon and
Dog Wonder then trace The Red Vulture to his nest, but
upon arrival, they are instantly set upon by R.V.'s deadly
mechanical mini-vultures. D.W. captures them all in a
burlap sack, and the two jet by Falconcar to stop The Red
Vulture, who is at present stealing $10 million of gold
boullion arriving in Big City Airport. R.V. spots them,
and tries to suck The Daring Duo, Falconcar and all into
his supersonic vacuum device. Fortunately, this proves to
be Red Vulture's tragic undoing as the snout sucks up jink
Dynomutt inadvertently tosses about in a vain attempt to
search for the Dyno-Antivacuum Vacuum. The Vulturejet
disintegrates, forcing R.V. and his minions to fly for
their lives. Having retrieved the stolen jet engines, The
Daring Duo capture The Red Vulture's lackies, Prop and
Cowl, fleeing on an escalator in the airport, and The
Vulture himself, fleeing in a biplane.

Episode 14: "The Injustice League Of America"
Production No. 83-14
First Aired December 4, 1976
Six of the most evil
criminals ever to face The Daring Duo - Fishface, The
Worm, The Queen Hornet, Lowbrow, Superthug, and The
Gimmick - have broken Big City Prison. They reconvene at
the abandoned Waldorf Euphoria Hotel where they form The
Injustice League Of America. By ordering a series of
robberies across Big City at the costume ball at The
Vandergilt Mansion and the proposed Big City Bank, the ILA
lures Blue Falcon and Dog Wonder to their secret lair at
Fishface's HQ. There, they fall haplessly victim to an
escape-proof supertrap rigged by The Gimmick. Without The
Daring Duo to foil them, the sinister sextet split up into
separate pairs and go their separate ways in converging
upon the unprotected Big City. It takes a total of 6
Dynogadgets to ensure Blue Falcon and Dynomutt's escape,
and they plan to capture the whole group by disguising
themselves alternately as members of the Injustice League
and thwart the criminals with a bevy of doublecrosses.
First, B.F. and D.W. disguise themselves as The Superthug
and The Gimmick to foil Fishface and The Worm's hijacking
of Jacque Couscous's treasure ship at Big City Bay; then,
as Fishface and The Worm, they beat Lowbrow and Queen
Hornet to the draw at cleaning out The Big City Hurtz
Castle Museum; and finally, as Lowbrow and Queen Hornet,
they thwart The Superthug and The Gimmick from stealing
The Gold Leaf Dome right off the state capitol. Confused
into believeing they've been pitted against one another,
The Injustice League Of America quarrels as they settle
their differences at the abandoned Waldorf
Euphoria...which is better than B.F and D.W. had hoped
for, as they swipe the crooks into Blue Falcon's
Falconcape and return them to Big City Prison.
Production Notes:
- Only Ron Feinberg and Julie McWhirter reprise their
original roles as the voices The Worm and The Queen
Hornet, respectively.
- This episode was the first to air as part of the
newly retitled (and extended!) Scooby- Doo/Dynomutt

Production No. 83-15
First Aired December 11, 1976
As Radley Crowne and
Dynomutt enjoy a leisure game of golf, The Blimp, evil
genius of the airways, directs The Blimplair silently high
over their heads, pilfering Big City's supply of helium.
Once alerted by FOCUS One, they immediately switch
costumes and dash off in pursuit, but a malfunctioning
Dyno- Helium Sniffer leads The Daring Duo to a baloon
vendor at The Big City Circus, where the hapless Dog
Wonder unwittingly becomes the main attraction on the
trapeze. Waylaid once again by baloon dummies in a toy
factory, Blue Falcon and Dog Wonder chase The Blimplair
but are caught in a giant Blimptrap; furthermore, they are
chained to a gas helium baloon, which will carry them to
their doom in outer space. They escape, but too late: The
Blimp has already used the helium to reach the
communications satellite, shot his Blimpray into all the
TV and radio sets and rendered everyone "Blimpified" (e.g.
turned into helpless baloons!), and now he is looting Big
City! In The Mayor's office, Dog Wonder turns on the TV,
sure that the TV news has all the details on the city's
"Blimpification," and blimpifies everyone in the room! The
Daring Duo waddle back to The Falcon's Lair where Dynomutt
concocts an antidote. After The Blimp and his lackeys are
hauled off to The Big City Jailhouse and Big City's
citizens restored to normal, Dynomutt makes good use of
The Blimpray by serving up kingsized hamburgers!
Production Notes:
- The Blimp boasts a magnificent impression of Sir
Alfred Hitchcock.
Episode 16: "The Prophet Profits"
Production No. 83-16
First Aired December 18, 1976
Dynomutt and Radley Crowne
race out of the Big City Drive-In Theatre, leaving a sea
of poporn, and switch to Blue Falcon and Dog Wonder in a
futile attempt to save Big City Bridge from the collapse
as predicted by The Prophet. The Daring Duo begin to look
bad as they are unable to prevent a second disaster - the
leaning over of the Big City City Hall - also predicted by
The Prophet, despite Dynomutt's efforts to fix the damage.
The Blue Falcon mistrusts The Prophet, and with good
reason: he rigs each disaster for the sick purpose of
charging the Mayor $500,000 for each prediction. To
counter this situation, B.F. introduced Swami Poochi (D.W.
in disguise) who charges half price for his
prediction: the collapse of a rocket at Big City Rocket
Base in 2 days. The Daring Duo secretly hover over The
Prophet's lair and sectetly listens in as an enraged
Prophet becomes dead set on making Swami Poochi look bad
by plotting to set off the rocket in 1 day and
destroying it in space. Blue Falcon and Dog Wonder sneak
up behind The Prophet and his henchwomen at the base, but
the dopey doberman accidentally triggers the gantry
release with his foot. Dynomutt activates the Dyno-Winch
to pull the gantry tower back up, but too fast, and The
Daring Duo become entangled in the Dyno-Winch's rope. The
Prophet blasts Blue Falcon and Dog Wonder into outer
space, but, with the trusty aid of The Dyno-Handy Helpers
(actually Dynomutt's nephews), they manage to free
themselves of their bind and return to Earth in time to
catch and stop The Prophet and his henchwomen in the act
of sabotaging Big City Dam.
