Wonder Dog is a fictional canine superhero from the original Super Friends television series. The character appeared in both the animated series, as well as the comic book of the same name, but wasn't incorporated into the DC Universe until 2008.

[edit] Super Friends

In the Super Friends animated series, Wonder Dog is portrayed as the pet/sidekick of Wendy and Marvin. He appears in all 16 episodes of the original television series. This version of Wonder Dog also appeared in the first six issues of the Super Friends comic book series.

[edit] The New Adventures of the Wonder Twins

Wendy, Marvin and Wonder Dog appear in the episode "Be Kind, Rewind" of the Adult Swim series The New Adventures of the Wonder Twins. In that episode, they are seen in a video store that the Wonder Twins are hanging out in. Wendy and Wonder Dog's appearance is quite brief, but Marvin has a fairly significant role in the episode. Apparently he put on a little weight since the Super Friends series, and grew a beard. Marvin tells the Wonder Twins that he has no hard feelings about them getting them fired from the Super Friends, because now he and his band are signed to a major label. This contradicts the explanation provided in the comic book series of how the Wonder Twins and Gleek replaced Marvin, Wendy and Wonder Dog.

[edit] Teen Titans comics

Wonder Dog makes his first appearance in the mainstream DC Universe in Teen Titans #62 (August 2008). In this issue, he is just a stray dog that finds his way to Titans Tower, and the Titans start to call him Wonder Dog, since that's what Miss Martian began calling him. But eventually Wonder Dog transforms into some kind of gigantic dog beast and he kills Marvin and viciously attacks Wendy. Wonder Dog was being used by a villain named King Lycus, whose goal is to destroy Wondergirl.
