A popular series of cartoons produced in the UISA, "Jake Danger, Man of Action" is a half hour long series of episodes with individual plotlines and overarching story arcs that has run for over 400 episodes.

The series concerns Jake Danger, Man of Action, and his racially diverse group of compatriots who work for a covert defence force set an unspecified period in the future wherein all nations have joined in a single world government in response to repeated alien invasion. Jake Danger is rebuilt with augmentation through cybernetics to have increased speed, endurance, and a variety of concealed weapons.

Some fans have protested the appearance of Dax as he appears to conform to comic book physics, as opposed to the more serious rules of the physical world that all other characters appear to follow. Dax has several times broken the fourth wall by claiming that he is not in fact breaking the fourth wall, but instead able to do these things due to his being a ninja.
