Nicknames: "MTE's Cousin", "The Zooming W", "The Western Globe of Doom", "'\\' of Doom"
Logo: On a space background, we see a CGI globe of the Earth. A comet emerges from its back side, and hits California. A silver "W" (looking like a combination of the 70's Warner Bros. logo and the Group W logo) emerges from the collision spot, and we back away from the earth as the W takes center stage:
appears below the logo as the space background turns to black. There are lines above and below "INTERNATIONAL".
FX/SFX: Impressive CGI for the 80's.
Music/Sounds: An ominous synth score, alongside a whoosh as the W zooms out and a loud "BOOM!" as it fully appears.
Availability: Rare, long gone from TV. Was seen at the end of syndicated prints of the TV-movie Child in the Night. Also seen on Showtime at the Apollo, the syndicated American adaptation of The Krypton Factor,Conan the Adventurer (1997), andThe Immortal (2000). Last known appearance was on a September 16, 2001 airing ofShowtime at the Apollo.
Editor's Note: None.
