Overview[]
In the year 2772 a meteor strikes the planet city of Acmetropolis knocking it slightly off it's axis. The energy put out by this meteor grants some citizens super powers. Six of them are brought together as 'The Loonatics' by the mysterious Zadavia to keep the planet safe from threats. The first season is praised for balancing a dark setting with slight humor that doesn't distract from the superhero drama and narrative. The second season however took a lighter tone upping the comedy while diminishing the action and drama.

The City Planet has a Mayor as it's executive (S1E6) and the Acme Science Council seems to hold a great deal of authority on the planet. Unlike previous incarnations of the ACME Corporation in other Loony-Tune productions the council is infact highly ethical having dispelled some of it's members on ethical grounds.
