Toxic Crusaders is a 1991 animated series aimed at children, loosely based on The Toxic Avenger films. It features Toxie, the lead character of the films, leading a group of misfit superheroes who combat pollution. This followed a trend of environmentally considerate cartoons and comics of the time, including Captain Planet and the Planeteers, Swamp Thing, and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Adventures, as well as cartoons based on R-rated properties like RoboCop and Police Academy. As this incarnation was aimed at children, Toxic Crusaders is considerably tamer than the edgy films it was based on (although it nevertheless contained many adult-oriented jokes that would go over most children's heads).

As this incarnation was aimed at children, Toxic Crusaders is considerably tamer than the edgy films it was based on (although it nevertheless contained many adult-oriented jokes that would go over most children's heads). Thirteen episodes were produced and aired, with at least a few episodes airing as a "trial run" in Summer 1990 followed by the official debut on January 21, 1991. It aired on YTV 1991 to 1992 in Canada. The US cable network G4 aired the first two episodes on July 25, 2009. (en)

  • Toxic Crusaders är en amerikansk animerad TV-serie, baserad på filmerna "Toxic Avenger" men riktad till en yngre publik. TV-serien följer ett samtida ekologiskt koncept och element från TV-serier som Captain Planet and the Planeteers, Swamp Thing och serietidningar som Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Adventures/Mutanimals och handlar om en superhjältetrio som bekämpar miljöbovar. Hjältars kamp mot miljöbovar och miljöförstöring var ett vanligt tema inom populärkultur åren runt 1990 där utöver Toxic Crusaders kan nämnas Widget, Captain Planet, Mutanimals/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Adventures och Trash Bag Bunch. TV-serien visades i USA under tidigt 1991, och utspelar sig i fiktiva staden Tromaville, New Jersey. TV-serien kunde i Sverige ses i The Children's Channel för den som hade kabel-TV eller parabolantenn. I vissa svenska grundskolor hölls kring 1992 föredrag om att Toxic Crusaders-leksakerna verkligen innehöll giftiga ämnen och skulle bannlysas. (sv)
