 DVD Verdict Review - Superfriends: Volume Two
SuperFriends: Volume Two follows Warner Brothers' earlier DVD release Challenge of the SuperFriends: The First Season, two shows that actually ran back to back in 1978 as part of an hour-long SuperFriends programming block.
While Challenge of the SuperFriends stepped up with an impressive gallery of rogues, here the SuperFriends are left to battle more generic threats like dinosaurs, space pirates, and robot cowboys.
SuperFriends: Volume Two is, unfortunately, a bit of a step down from the previous set, which at least featured a few episode commentaries.

 Super Friends - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Challenge of the Superfriends season introduced the Legion of Doom, a team of 13 recurring foes comprised of the Super Friends' worst enemies.
Subsequent seasons were a mix of one-hour and half-hour episodes, the one-hour episodes sometimes featuring two or more short stories in each hour, and made use of established villains from the DC comics.
They used a swamp-based, vaguely mechanical, flying headquarters (the Hall of Doom) which suspiciously resembled the head of Darth Vader, as a suitable contrast with the Super Friends's gleaming Hall of Justice.

 phorum - Scifilm - Jase's TV Files: Challenge of the SuperFriends: "Wanted: The SuperFriends"
Not wanting their good names ruined, the SuperFriends decide to turn themselves over to the proper authorities only to discover it's all another trick by Lex Luthor and the Legion of Doom with Cheetah and Bizarro disguised as police officers who shoot our heroes unexpectedly with a paralyzing ray.
Lex Luthor uses a special dream machine device he's invented to control the minds of the SuperFriends in the Justice League of America so that they commit crimes.
This episode, the first in what was meant to be a more serious approach, thankfully characters like the Wondertwins Zan & Jayna and their space-monkey Gleek are gone, to these cartoons is really just as silly and bad as any previous episode of the "SuperFriends".
