AUTOMAN (1984)
GLEN A. LARSON (HURRAH FOR GLEN A. LARSON!)

WAHEY-EFFECTS STYLE kiddery with limp computer-operating cop Walter (DESI ARNEZ JNR) creating super electronic crimefighter bloke by a patchily-explained process, along with comedy sidekick "Cursor", who turns into a neon car, neon helicopter and neon tennis ball thing. Automan himself (CHUCK WAGNER!) was spangly leotearded but with normal head. Disappeared at night when people of the city turned on lights, electric toothbrushes etc., thereby draining his power (rather large drawback for a super-hero). Pretty much arse, really.

TV CREAM immortality rating-
..."AUTOCAR" WAS SLEEK GLOWING LAMBORGHINI COUNTACH WITH GULL-WING DOORS. IT TURNED AT 90 DEGREE ANGLES. (WHAT, LIKE IN TRON?)
