Notes

  • The character of Apache Chief was created by Hanna-Barbera Productions and is unique to the continuity of the Super Friends television series. Actor Michael Rye provided the voice for Apache Chief in all corresponding episodes.
  • In 1978, Hanna-Barbera elected to include more ethnic diversity in their Super Friends line-up. To this end, they created several original characters of distinctive cultural and/or racial diversity to fill out the Super Friends roster. Included in the new line-up were: Black Vulcan, El Dorado, Samurai and Apache Chief. Although Hanna-Barbera's intent was to create a more politically correct atmosphere, the writers of the show fell back upon age old stereotypes and several of the characters became little more than token archetypes of their respective cultures. Apache Chief himself was often found speaking in clipped, stilted tones reminiscent of stereotypical Native American speech patterns.
  • Apache Chief's origin was revealed in the Challenge of the Super Friends episode, "The History of Doom".

Trivia

  • No trivia.
