Bowser, though most commonly referred to by the name of King Koopa, is featured as the main antagonist of all three of [[DIC Entertainment]]'s ''Super Mario'' cartoons, ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'', ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' and [[Super Mario World (television series)|''Super Mario World'']]. He later gets his own show in ''[[King Koopa's Kool Kartoons]]'', a live-action DIC production. Bowser's appearance in the shows is based on [[Wart]] from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' and his in-game sprite from the original ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]''.

He later gets his own show in ''[[King Koopa's Kool Kartoons]]'', a live-action DIC production. Bowser's appearance in the shows resembles both [[Wart]] from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' and his in-game sprite from the original ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]''
 
Despite being based on elements from both [[Super Mario Bros.]] and [[Super Mario Bros. 2]], ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'' does not feature [[Wart]], only King Koopa, whom is served by goons of both [[The Koopa Troop]] and the [[8 Bit Gang]] in this portrayal.  Thus, DiC's King Koopa's character design could have been an attempt to amalgamate both villains into one character, or a perception by the show's character designers that both characters were one and the same.
