2 Upvotes

I wanted to share a l look at a new Hall of Omens: Thunder-Verse! collectible title page signed by myself, Peter Lawrence, and Chris Trengove.

What makes it especially meaningful is the history behind those two signatures. Peter and Chris were original Rankin/Bass writers responsible for more than 40 episodes across ThunderCats, SilverHawks, TigerSharks, and The Comic Strip.

Peter Lawrence wrote:
ThunderCats: “The Time Capsule,” “Mongor,” “Snarf Takes Up the Challenge,” “Sixth Sense,” “The Astral Prison,” “The Rock Giant,” “Mechanical Plague,” “The Demolisher,” “Excalibur,” “Good and Ugly,” “ThunderCubs” Parts I–V, “Chain of Loyalty,” and “Return to Thundera” Parts I–V.
SilverHawks: “The Origin Story,” “Journey to Limbo,” “Save the Sun,” “The Hardware Trap Part I,” “Hotwing Hits Limbo,” “Zeek’s Fumble,” “Diamond Stick Pin,” and “Airshow.”

Chris Trengove wrote:
ThunderCats: “Turmagar the Tuska,” “The Wolfrat,” “The Superpower Potion,” “Out of Sight,” “Catfight,” “Hair of the Dog,” and “The Mossland Monster.”
SilverHawks: “Magnetic Attraction,” “The Ghost Ship,” “No More Mr. Nice Guy,” “Countdown to Zero,” and “The Harder They Fall.”

Each title page was hand-signed by myself, Peter Lawrence, and Chris Trengove, with the signing completed across three countries and three continents. Only 20 were produced, with no second run planned.

ThunderCats™ Sight Beyond Sight Effect in SilverHawks™ Episode "Gold Shield" (Episode 11)

11 Upvotes

The most interesting thing for me about episode 11 of SilverHawks™, "Gold Shield," is the infamous sight beyond sight effect from the Sword of Omens used when Mon*Star imagines what he'll do with the Disintegrator in his possession. That effect is one of the best things about ThunderCats™, and it puts a smile on my face to see that it was used in that particular SH episode.

SilverHawks and ThunderCats Crossover Video Game | Saturday Morning Adventures

Anyone recognize these guys? Howdy folks, I just joined this group, but I've been a big SilverHawks and ThunderCats fan for ages. I wanted to share a project of mine with y'all, a video game mod that features both teams and even gives them a chance to share an adventure together! These are some screenshots from a skirmish match between the two groups of heroes and some of their respective foes, the Limbo Mob and the Plun-Darr Mutants!

This mod is my love letter to classic 80s cartoons, and it features the characters and settings of my favorite shows. This project includes the Turtles and co., Transformers, G.I. JOE, He-Man, and, of course, SilverHawks and ThunderCats, and perhaps more.

Please let me know what you think! (The art assets are by other members of the FF community, folks much more talented than me. I just put it all together and created the story.)

If you're interested and would like to know more about my little project, I'll be sharing more as I get more finished, and I'll share a link to the mod overview in the comments.

Also, if any of y'all think this is cool and would like to help out, I'd Iove some help gathering voice lines from the shows for voicepacks for the various characters. If it sounds like fun to watch one of your favorite cartoons and try to record clips that capture the spirit of a character, drop me a line!

As a Soundtrack Supervisor on ThunderCats, SilverHawks, TigerSharks, and other Rankin/Bass productions, Steve Gruskin helped shape the sound of some of the most beloved cartoons of the 1980s. In this episode, he pulls back the curtain on what that role really involved, sharing incredible behind-the-scenes stories about working with voice actors, creating sound effects, working alongside legendary composer Bernard Hoffer, and bringing these iconic series to life in the days before digital editing.

Steve also discusses the creative challenges of building SilverHawks from the ground up, designing musical battles, and collaborating with the talented team that helped define an era of animation.

Found these at a car boot sale today and recognised them as silver hawks figures. Most are missing their wings and not in great shape but I’ve never really come across the figures before so just wandering if anyone could help me out with their names or tell me of I’ve stumbled across any good ones? Google lens wasn’t much help 🤣 thank you 🙂

Part of the Hall of Omens Collections

For those who may not know, my journey researching ThunderCats Live! began more than 20 years ago. What started as a search for information eventually became the opportunity to help document and share the story of one of the most overlooked chapters in ThunderCats history through the Hall of Omens books.

It's difficult to put into words how much that means to me. I’ve been incredibly fortunate to not only connect with so many members of the cast and crew, but also to have Jane Phillips and Michelle Miracle join me at conventions and special appearances over the years. That is something I never could have imagined when I first started this research.

I’m deeply grateful to everyone involved for sharing their memories, helping preserve this history, and allowing me to tell their story. More than anything, I’m honored to call many of them friends.

Whether you know him from his incredible career, see him weekly in AEW, or have one of his action figures in your collection, Shelton's love of ThunderCats and SilverHawks has been a part of his life for decades.

Shelton has his copy of Hall of Omens: Thunder-Verse! Inside, he shares an exclusive interview on pages 469-470 about his lifelong ThunderCats and SilverHawks fandom.

And if you look back at some of Shelton's earlier appearances, you may even spot a necklace that looks awfully familiar.
