This is another pairing that feels long overdue to me. Two adventurers that regularly face off against pulp-inspired villains would be bound to cross paths at one point or another. It would certainly make for an exciting story, or episode of a cartoon.

Somehow seeing an eleven-year-old boy like Jonny charging toward me to deliver some kind of bare knuckle beatdown wouldn't concern me anywhere near as much as seeing Doc Savage coming to do the same thing, but it's a pretty nice picture all the same.
It'll only be a matter of time before we get characters from The Venture Brothers involved...
Doc's probably doing all the punching, while Jonny sneaks past the Tentacloids to grab the Maguffin.
You're right, Ross; this is long overdue, and hopefully not their last meeting.
I seem to remember that the people behind Jonny Quest wanted to do a Doc Savage cartoon in the same style but it never reached completion. If so it was a great could have been.
Clark Savage Sr might have helped a young Benton Quest early on, so Jonny may have known Jr for some time. Great potentials for a single or a mini series. And i like this a lot more than Doc working with Damien Wayne.
Sorry to take so (comparatively) long to comment, today. But, I had to double-check using your search links at the bottom of the article. And, I'll be darned like a sock if you weren't correct. This IS the first time you've combined these two!*
I'm thus forced to wonder if the Tentacloids are Dr. Octopus arms-gone-rogue AI (perhaps discourtesy of Ultron). Or if the true culprit might be...Shuma-Gorath!
*The titular antagonists must've vaguely reminded me of STF #1048 where Doc teamed up with the other HB. ;-)
I feel like Tom Strong would fit right into an adventure like this.
been a Doc Savage fan for many years, i was reading the books before the Marvel comics or the DC run let alone all the other companies, but Jonny Quest is still an unknown on this side of the Pond…. the comic shops don’t bother to order them as they don’t believe that they would sell…
@Simon: what about syndicated DVD compilations of the original series?
@Anon337: as in, the prime-time one-season wonder from 1964? Or the syndicated weekday spin-off from the 1980's (which also featured Race and Jade's redheaded daughter)?
Fantastic! As a kid, Jonny, Fantastic! As a kid, Jonny Quest was my gateway into adventure cartoons. Some aspects of it haven't aged well, but it is still so much fun. And the fun, exotic locations, and adventure are perfect match to the spirit of the Doc Savage adventures. It makes me wonder how Race would've thought of Pat Savage, what Monk and Ham would've thought of Jade, and how Bandit would've gotten along with Habeas Corpus and Chemistry. Another fantastic concept!
I actually wrote a Doc Savage meets Fu Manchu fanfic once. There is a Professor Eriksen in the Fu Manchu stories, and I made him the father of Professor Erickson from the house of the seven gargoyles.
Throw in Tintin and Scrooge McDuck and it would be the perfect adventure team.
@Matthew: What?
It was a JQ:TOS episode where a Norwegian scientist named Ericson (one of Dr. Quest's many old friends) invented a form of silicon that could negate gravity.
"In a moment of ego, I named it after myself; ericon!"
If anybody's interested, the fanfic is called Doc Savage: If anybody's interested, the fanfic is called Doc Savage: Island of the Devil. It's hostd on Win Eckart's Wold Newton Universe site https://www.pjfarmer.com/woldnewton/Island_Devil.pdf
