HOTW- Super Bwoing

From Wiki- Super Bwoing: Noted for his rather unremarkable physique, extreme clumsiness, and his winged red helmet, echoing the helmet worn by the Greco-Roman deity Mercury. His preferred mode of transportation is to fly through the air on his guitar (the "Super Bwoinger"), using the strings like reins on a horse. His primary superpower is the ability to emit a super "laser beam" from his eyes, although he has superhuman strength as well. Due to his being an apprentice hero, in addition to being the clumsiest of the Super Service heroes, he seems to only get jobs if the others were busy or on holidays; in essence, he is the last choice and, in any case, better than nothing. Despite his bumbling, however, he almost always manages to catch his villains. His voice is a caricature of Jimmy Stewart's.  Now more from me:

I have really enjoyed this cartoon.  While Super Bwoing didn't need to be the focus, he still gets the job done on his own.  The series is comedic, but the heroes all are good at their jobs.  Except for the Brothers, who are my least favorite part.  Why those chose Jimmy Stewart's voice is still a mystery, since Jimmy sounded old when he was young.
