Production

Dickman came up with the concept for the show as early as 2006, wanting to make a family orientated show. On the matter he said "I used to LOVE old action hero movies (which were also comedies sometimes) that starred either Hulk Hogan, Arnold Schwartzenegger and etc... I miss those old movies, I wanted to see if I could bring that back, a little with this cartoon"[5] However, Dickman had no involvement in the production of the series, nor was he acknowledged of the show's existence until he discovered it five years later and wasn't even contractually paid for the series at all.[6][7] Dickman believes that the reason for being off the production was for the studio "to make all the changes they wanted."[8] This may explain why the series' main antagonist, Baron Gash,[9] was renamed to Baron von Dash and the characters gained new character designs and Flash animation.
