Joined by his bandleader Zorak, who also happens to be a six-foot-tall alien insect, and the dimwitted space pirate Brak, Space Ghost romps through 25 musical selections and 13 dialogue snippets.
Space Ghost himself also performs his share of tunes, offering a fast-paced and well-written history of the series on "The Cartoon Planet Story" and a ridiculously egocentric but enormously entertaining "Everybody Wants To Be Space Ghost."

The Ghost’s diaphanous cape seems to have an odd flair over the shoulders, and doesn’t look like a gentle slope but more like a hard metal ridge; an odd choice to be sure.
In checking, it’s possible that Space Ghost’s less-sophisticated villains may have used such an un-technological way of connecting metal-to-metal, but our hero was all about graceful lines and seamless design.
A mix of gloss and flat paints have been used on Space Ghost (I‘m referring to them as flat, but they have a bit of a dull sheen to them--so perhaps ‘satin‘ or ‘semi-gloss‘ would be a more appropriate term?).
