My wife worked for Palladium Entertainment, the previous company to run the character. She got to see all sorts of proposed LR products, including a couple pages of a proposed Superman script. In it, Brainiac is parked in orbit around Earth, monitoring all of Earth's media broadcasts. News reports, cartoons, and apparently an episode of the Lone Ranger, since coming out of one of the speakers would have been the famous "cloud of dust" opening.

I'll bet regular commenter Steve Chaput is home right now hoping against hope that someone from this website asks him to review this set. He loves the Lone Ranger as much as I love Lensmen. And ask anyone who knows me, that's a LOT.

Do you remember the days when Clayton Moore was banned from wearing the Lone Rangers mask? Yeah, 1979, it was a legal injunction put in place by the guy who controlled the LR license at the time. Moore would appear in public in large wrap-around shades. Moore eventually won a counter-suit that gave him back the right to wear the mask. His is the only star on the Hollywood walk of fame to have his character's name. His star reads, "Clayton Moore -- The Lone Ranger." [Thanks Wikipedia!]

Filmation did not produce the '60s animated Lone Ranger series-that was produced by a company called Halas and Batchelor Cartoon Films.
