Bravest Warriors is an animated science-fiction comedy series created by Pendleton Ward, the creator of Adventure Time. The series was developed and produced by Frederator Studios and originally released through Cartoon Hangover, an online animation platform known for creator-driven animated content.
Episode 0 – “The Bravest Warriors Pilot” was released in 2012 as the original pilot episode that introduced the concept, tone, and core characters of the series. The pilot follows four teenage heroes — Chris Kirkman, Beth Tezuka, Danny Vasquez, and Wallow — who work together as intergalactic heroes for hire. They travel through space completing missions, protecting innocent creatures, and battling bizarre cosmic threats, all while dealing with emotional growth, friendship dynamics, and teenage insecurities.
Set in a colorful and imaginative future, the pilot establishes the group’s base of operations and their mission-oriented lifestyle, blending fast-paced action, absurd humor, and emotion-driven storytelling. The episode introduces the show’s signature themes of courage, vulnerability, love, and personal growth, which later became central elements throughout the series.
The pilot’s success led directly to the full web series launch under Cartoon Hangover, making Episode 0 a foundational entry point for fans and new viewers interested in modern Western animation and creator-led storytelling.
