A top ten of Casey's toon characters # 9.........



Hey Alit's toon time again with Mister Kasem.........,
    As everyone should know by now that very suave voice the top fella seen here in the mystery inc gang recently went to cartoon heaven a few days ago.....and I wanted to keep up on my top ten of his best and least and of course surprising vocal talents. So let's see who falls into the ninth slot shall we?  Since it is in red that I'm using to pen this one in,  it can only be one of two main toons characters that Casey put his longest bit of sound to..... now here is the question to really think about is it Cliff Jumper or Robin the boy Wonder 

 , funny is it not that in the above photo that Robin is just above Cliff Jumper. Also notice that yesterday Mark Venture character from "BATTLE OF THE PLANETS" is right next to Cliff Jumper and yes most these others seen here will in the top ten somewhere I'm sure! Today's slot happens to be for the pal of the guy who runs around Gotham city as the Dark Knight or as he was called in the cartoons with Robin, Batman. Now as I said a moment ago Robin was Casey's second longest running voice next to Shaggy Rogers......he voiced Robin as far back as nineteen sixty eight in" Batman with Robin the boy wonder", which I'm sure came right after the Adam West and Burt Ward's takes on the iconic comic book heroes. Casey was the ongoing voice of Batman,s ward till " Super Power team: Galactic Gaurdains which ran in full animated form in the year nineteen eighty five. I mostly remember Kasem's Robin from "Challenge of the Super Friends" and "The Super Friends hour", still no matter how many other teenager super heroes he was teamed with do Zander and Jana the wonder twins fall into that area as well 
as Wendy and Marvin seen here 

Robin without a doubt very neatly done by the coolest radio disc jockey around was the boy wonder at his best with Kasem's track voice over. So that is why Robin is the ninth best voice that I can appreciate in Casey Kasem toon history.......

To Be Continued........
