Originally released on the Now We Know Patreon feed on February 22, 2022 —yet no doubt new to so many of you — we look back at the ill-fated cartoon pilot Defenders of Dynatron City, which boasted the vocal talents of Whoopi Goldberg and Tim Curry, and almost Christopher Walken, until the producer absurdly decided he wanted a "more cartoonish" voice. Part of a cross-platform multimedia rollout, the pilot's release coincided with a very bad video game (atypical of the golden age of LucasArts games) and a six-episode comic series, making it... a proto-Shadows of the Empire, perhaps?
