Physical appearance[]

History[]
Early life[]
After his show was cancelled, he used to appear at conventions in costume and sign autographs. Jennifer Severin got a restraining order preventing him from wearing the costume, since it would detract from the new darker image of the Falcon she wanted to present; this severely cut into his autograph business.
Scooby-Doo! Mask of the Blue Falcon[]
His rants against the new movie meant he was suspected of being Mr. Hyde. He was caught in a Hyde costume, apparently operating a giant Mr. Hyde robot, but this was a frame-up by the real culprit, Jack Rabble. Owen tried to tell them he was innocent, and accused Brad and Jennifer of putting him in the Mr. Hyde suit, but Brad orders that Owen be arrested. When Mr. Hyde show up, Owen put on his Blue Falcon costume and helped stop Mr. Hyde.
Owen shows up just in time to save Scooby from Hideous Hyde Hound in the Falconmobile and in his original Blue Falcon costume. Owen and Scooby then team up where they defeat Hideous Hyde Hound who turn out to be a Robot, Owen then stop Mr. Hyde from escaping and found out it was Jack Rabble behind everything. Mayor Ron Starlin thank him and Scooby for saving the day and stopping Mr. Hyde. After Hyde was caught and defeated by Owen and Scooby, Jennifer was inspired to make a sequel in which Garrison got a cameo role as the original Blue Falcon, the father of the new one, much to the former actor's delight.

Notes/trivia[]
- He is a parody of Adam West, who played a campy version of Batman on television, with his treatment as an actor being similar when later movie directors wanted to distance themselves from that image. However, the 1966 show was not downplayed and forgotten.
- Also, Jeff Bennett's voice, who played the character, sounded similar to West.
- Owen Garrison's name is a play on Gary Owens, who was the voice of the Blue Falcon on the real-world Dynomutt, Dog Wonder TV series.
