New Adventures of the Lone Ranger/Zorro Volume 2

RETURN WITH US TO THE THRILLING DAYS OF YESTERYEAR!

The most famous question of the Old West is Who was that masked man? The hero of the dusty plains is the Lone Ranger, clad in a black mask and carrying a gun loaded with silver bullets. Riding with his faithful Indian sidekick, Tonto, the Lone Ranger fights injustice on his galloping horse, Silver, leaving behind a cloud of dust as he lets loose the hearty cry of Hi-Yo, Silver!

Clad all in black and raising his sword in the name of justice, he is Zorro, the Latin hero of the South! Secretly the nobleman, Don Diego, Zorro defends the poor and downtrodden from tyranny and cruelty with the help of his trusty companion, Miguel! His calling card is the letter a mark he leaves behind with three slashes of his sword to remind evildoers that he is protecting the land.

Spotlighting the work of the legendary Filmation Studios, this volume features eleven thrilling adventures of THE LONE RANGER, and seven heart-racing tales of ZORRO! With a stellar voice cast that includes William Conrad and Henry Darrow, this pair of action heroes fights for justice on DVD for the first time ever, alongside swashbuckling special features! Product Description

Filmation Animation Rocks!!!

Filmation made som of the best cartoons when I was a kid and wathcing these programs reminded me why they were so good. There was a lesson that had to deal with the episode and also there was some form of restraint on the violence. They mayt have used a lot of stock footage, but the movements of the Lone Ranger & Zorro were more life like and loved the stories. November 11, 2008

New Adventures of the Lone Ranger/Zorro Volume 2

I remember watching these adventures as a child, and I'm very grateful for their release on DVD. Filmation maintains its high quality standard of mixing great adventure with educational lessons (in this case, facts about the Old West and Mexican/Spanish History). It would be nice if some contemporary cartoons would incorporate more educational and/or life lessons into their format as children continue to need these lessons given to them from sources in addition to the home. Finally, as Western Tales are not very commonplace in today's entertainment world, it's nice to have the adventures of Zorro and The Lone Ranger to relive on DVD. August 27, 2008

Why only 18 (of the 28) Lone Rangers in the 2 volumes?

According to the articles I've read online,
If you buy Volume 1 & 2, you'll get:
18 of the 28 Lone Ranger stories
All 13 of the Zorro stories.
The way I see it, this leaves them with 10 Lone Rangers and no Zorro stories for a potential Volume 3.
14 Lone Ranger stories per volume would have wrapped things up nicely for both shows.
I can only hope they still put out a 3rd volume anyway, to give us the remaining Lone Ranger stories.
Failing that, I'll feel rather disgruntled about having spent my money on the first two volumes, but it's too early to complain yet. May 7, 2008
