Billy's personality is based on the wise, independent, and self-determined side of Bruce Lee. He regularly dons armored hero's clothes that are blue, with a torn shirt and dragon-mask that are both red. In this series, the Double Dragons are adept in a mystical form of the Kenjutsu arts, even though in the games they have more of a mastery in both the Bōjutsu arts with any bō or club, and the Kusari-fundo arts involving any whip or nunchaku they can find.īilly Lee is the former devoted Dragon Pupil turned graduated Dragon Master with messy black hair.
The brothers sometimes sense when the other is in danger. Injury sustained by one is sometimes taken by the other. They usually transform out of those forms by crossing swords again and saying in unison, "For Might! For Right! We are Double Dragons!", although several episodes show that heavy injury can deactivate their powers. The Lee brothers are martial-arts instructors and police consultants, who assume superheroic identities at moments of escalated violence. All of the characters introduced from the second episode onward are original creations made for the show, although most of the villains are also used in the Tradewest-produced Double Dragon V: The Shadow Falls, a competitive fighting game released for home consoles. By the end of the second episode, Abobo and Willy are sucked into the Shadow Mural, never to be seen again, while Jimmy abandons his evil ways and reconciles with his brother to fight against the series' true antagonist, the Shadow Master.
The villains are the mysterious Shadow Boss (Jimmy's initial alter-ego), and his henchmen Abobo and Willy (who were based on enemy characters from the game). The plot of the pilot episode is loosely adapted from the NES version of the first Double Dragon game. The futile search for their father, John Lee, is a subplot throughout the series. During the course of the series, the brothers recruit allies in their war against the Shadow Master and his henchmen. When Jimmy is betrayed by the Shadow Master, he renounces his evil ways and joins his brother as a Dragon Warrior. As a result, the Lee brothers oppose each other as adults. Billy is raised by an elderly martial arts master known as the Oldest Dragon, and his brother Jimmy is raised by the evil Shadow Master as his second-in-command, the Shadow Boss. The premise of the show is that the protagonist brothers are separated at birth. It was produced by DIC Animation City, Bohbot Entertainment, and Italian studio Reteitalia, S.p.A., in association with Spanish network Telecinco.
