- He is the leader of the troupe. He is exceptionally smart and talented with complicated contraptions, and he encourages children to study mathematics and the sciences. Wayne Gretzky (voiced by Townsend Coleman) - He is often focused on food, and is often the comic relief. However, at certain times he shows a serious side, such as when the Stanley Cup was stolen, as it was something he had earned. Bo Jackson (voiced by Dave Fennoy) - He provides the proverbial "muscle" for the heroes. He is immensely strong, and has a bit of a mean streak. His strength often approaches superhuman levels, such as in the series opening, when he uses a gigantic tree trunk like a club against a logging robot. Mom (voiced by Susan Silo) - A quasi-Yiddish and Jewish mother stereotype, she is the Q to the ProStars' James Bond. She constantly invents wacky gadgets loosely based on sports equipment for the heroes to use. The ProStars spend all their free time in Mom's Gym, and possibly live there as well. It also serves as the ProStars' "headquarters". Denise (voiced by Diana Barrows) - She is an attractive young apprentice to Mom. She wants to help the ProStars, yet she rarely makes an impact. The Neighbor - He is a hapless African-American man who wears glasses and happens to live in the same neighborhood as the ProStars' headquarters. By sheer misfortune, he happens to fall victim to the malfunctions of the ProStars' machines, such as when he is buried in snow after their climate machine goes awry. In another episode, he takes a vacation to the Himalayas, and he enjoys the isolation and confidence that he is far away from any mishaps the ProStars could unleash, only to find the ProStars are also in the area stopping a villain there. Villains In nearly every episode the ProStars would get a message by teleconference from a child explaining the situation such as a little boy from an island in the South Seas who said his village's treasures were being stolen by Short John Silver. Most of the villains were standard cartoon fare and had often done villainous acts akin to cartoons of the early 1990s (such as Captain Planet and Free Willy), namely environmental irresponsibility such as strip mining, coastal pollution, or deforestation of the rainforest. Other times, a villain might hold a child for ransom, such
