Out of thoes 4 I only got into the Transformers. I liked Garfield, inspector Gadget, but I could never get into the others for some reason. And your right. Cartoons in the morning before school and cartoons after school.

I don't think anyone's ever identified that substance. Personally, I think it's reprocessed nuclear waste.
