Miraculous: In the 60s?!

Meet Marie Bernard, or, as she is better know to the people of 1966 Paris, Wonderbug! During the day, she's a normal 14 year old girl studying to become a chef at her mother's restaurant, but by night, she fights crime and injustice with her loyal partner Fury Claw! Who, unbeknownst to her, is secretly her childhood best friend and fellow trainée chef, Julien Auclair.

Who is she fighting against, you may ask?

Only the two most oppressive forces of evil at the time: Balteatus and Morpho, holders of the Bee and the Butterfly. Balteatus got his name from the species of bee called Bombus Balteatus, or the long tounged bee, which is symbolism for Balteatus spreading lies and gossip in order to skew the story in Morpho's favour. Balteatus uses his words and venom to control those around him. Morpho is named after the Blue Morpho butterfly, which is one of the largest butterflies in the world - showing that Morpho has eyes and ears everywhere, and all of Paris is under her wing.

In this AU, Fu lost half of the Miracle Box in a fight against Morpho - although he managed to keep the two most powerful, the Ladybug and the Black Cat, he lost many as well.

Miraculous under Morpho's control - Bee, Fox, Tiger, Snake, Dragon, Monkey and Rooster. (As well as the Butterfly but that's Morpho's miraculous and never leaves her sight).

Miraculous Fu saved - Ladybug, Black Cat, Mouse, Ox, Rabbit, Horse, Goat, Dog, and Pig. (He has the Turtle too but thats his).

Tada another AU! It's in the same timeline as Tales of Lullanyx and Audinelle but obviously it takes place many decades earlier. I really wanna make more content for this so let me know if you'd be into that

Sometimes I have to google something that shows up in my memory just so I know it’s not some fever dream I had as a kid.

So Wonderbug was a live action series that ran in the 1970s as part of the Krofft Supershow on Saturday mornings.

It involved a jalopy named Shlepcar that would transform itself into a shiny dune buggy that could talk (sort of) and fly through the air and help its teenage owners solve crimes.

This is not to be confused with the earlier series Speed Buggy which also involved a sentient crime solving dune buggy but that one was animated. Look. Hanna-Barbera were not going to mess with a semi-winning formula.

Kids, dune buggies were big in the 70s is what I’m saying.
