Influences
While the Hanna & Barbara character Race Bannon of Jonny Quest fame immediately springs to mind, there are other superhero scifi adventure characters which litter the universe in which Jet Jungle was created. The Green Hornet for instance is a radio hero from the 1930s who like Jet, had no superhero powers to speak of, but relied on a Gas gun and a sleek, super-powered car called "The Black Beauty", much faster than normal cars of the day.

Famous quotes containing the word influences:
“Whoever influences the child’s life ought to try to give him a positive view of himself and of his world. The child’s future happiness and his ability to cope with life and relate to others will depend on it.”
—Bruno Bettelheim (20th century)
“Nothing changes more constantly than the past; for the past that influences our lives does not consist of what actually happened, but of what men believe happened.”
—Gerald W. Johnson (1890–1980)
“Leadership does not always wear the harness of compromise. Once and again one of those great influences which we call a Cause arises in the midst of a nation. Men of strenuous minds and high ideals come forward.... The attacks they sustain are more cruel than the collision of arms.... Friends desert and despise them.... They stand alone and oftentimes are made bitter by their isolation.... They are doing nothing less than defy public opinion, and shall they convert it by blows. Yes.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
