- Forget Superman. Batman too. Kids know who the real
- superheroes are: athletes. NBC hopes to take advantage of that
- sentiment this fall with a new Saturday-morning cartoon series.
- ProStars features animated versions of Bo Jackson, Michael
- Jordan and Wayne Gretzky, but winning games is not in this
- picture. These pros are going after "all the wrongs of the
- world." With the help of Mom, a manager who supplies them with
- powerful sports gadgets, the athletes use their talents to help
- kids cope with problems they can't handle alone. The real pros
- won't do the voices, but they'll show up in live-action segments
- driving home the values taught in each episode: sportsmanship,
- fitness and a winning attitude.
