TV special.
The game was adapted into an animated pilot by DIC Animation City. It featured the voices of Whoopi Goldberg and Tim Curry. Originally, Doctor Mayhem was voiced by Christopher Walken. Steve Purcell recalled, "It was lively and hilarious. For god-knows-what-reason, the producers at the last minute replaced him with a more cartooney voice." Fox Kids aired this pilot as a special on February 22, 1992. It failed to be picked up as a series and was subsequently released on VHS. No DVD or digital video release has surfaced as of yet.
Comics.
Marvel Comics released six issues of a comic book adaptation, written by Steve Purcell. The first issue was released in February 1992.
