Hoverboard homage

The Real Adventures of Johnny Quest was a 1986 retread of the original 60’s version of the show. Episode 16 of season 2 was titled Other Space and features hoverboard action. In the words of Grover, who unearthed this footage, “They hover the shit out of this episode.”

We’ve all got hoverboards!

  2. the original Johnny Quest was my favorite cartoon, that and ‘Space Ghost’ never saw the 1986 ‘retread’ Where’s Bandit, the little dog? Did he make the 1986 version?
