Jana of the Jungle was created by Doug Wildey, of Jonny Quest fame, as part of The Godzilla Power Hour. Jana, voiced by B.J. Ward, roams the rainforests of South America in search of her lost father. She is aided by Montaro and Dr. Ben Cooper, as well as two Non Human Sidekicks: Ghost the albino jaguar and Tiko the coatimundi yapok. Jana's collar doubles as a sharp-edged throwable weapon which could—among other things—cut vines and bore holes through cave walls. Montaro wields the equally potent Staff of Power that can cause earthquake-like shockwaves when it strikes the ground.
Jana also made a cameo appearance on Yogis Space Race.
