This cartoon series was based on the Hasbro toy line of the same name and created by the same people who produced GI Joe and Transformers.
In a future era, a deadly breed of creatures called the Inhumanoids arise from Big Sur national park where they have been encased in amber, and threaten to destroy all living creatures.
The Inhumanoids – including Metlar, Tendril, D’Compose (pictured at left) and Sslither – are aided and abetted by corrupt industrialist Blackthorne Shore.
Stories relate the efforts of Earth Corps, a government-funded geological sciences research team including scientists Dr Herman (Herc) Armstrong (codename “Hooker”); Dr Derek Ericson Bright (codename “Digger”); Dr Edward ‘The Fist’ Augutter (codename “Auger”) and Dr Jonathan Martin Slattery (“Liquidator”), to defeat their deadly enemies.
Earth Corps are assisted by a race of subterranean creatures known as Mutores, including the Redwoods (sentient tree-beings) and the (rock-bodied) Granites.
Hasbro decided to end the toy line during the first season but allowed the show to continue as long as commercials for their other properties could be shown.
