In the bottom half of the 1960s, Hanna-Barbera Productions shifted from almost total reliance on funny animals (e.g., Peter Potamus, Quick Draw McGraw), to superheroes (such as Space Ghost and The Mighty Mightor) Of course, there was a transition phase. Hanna-Barbera's very first superhero was a four-limbed talking insect who walked on his hind legs. Atom Ant was first seen on Sunday, September 12, 1965, when NBC aired a half-hour special titled The World of Secret Squirrel & Atom Ant, for the purpose of introducing viewers to a couple of its new Saturday morning stars. The actual Atom Ant/Secret Squirrel show, titled (imaginatively enough) The Atom Ant/Secret Squirrel Show, began a few weeks later, on October 2. Atom's co-star was a response to the James Bond (related, but it was commercial and contrived) craze. Atom Ant (Picture 2). Atom Ant cartoon images gallery 2. Atom Ant cartoon pictures collection 2. The whole two-star show was an hour long, but it was formatted just like most of the cartoon shows that came before it — each star had a segment about as long as a theatrical cartoon, and lesser characters appeared in similar segments of their own. With an hour to fill, there were six segments. The other four featured Precious Pupp (a Tweety Bird type, appearing innocent but actually delighting in mischief), Squiddly Diddly (another riff on the Yogi Bear/Wally Gator theme, this one pitting a marine park resident against the park's supervisor), Hillbilly Bears (title tells all) and Winsome Witch (a kid-friendly witch character, like Wendy).
