And we still don't know who did this to her! Even more, I think we have some more of a hint of the "monsters" Bishop Sr was referring to in Area 51. Maybe Ravenwood's failed/dead/dying predecessors in whatever freaky alien was experimenting on humans? But yeah, I'm going to agree that Ravenwood HAS to be in later versions. It feels like they took what 2012 tried to do with Mutant April, and made that sh*t into gold!

Maybe it'll be Bebop and Rocksteady captured by the EPF and put in some sorta Suicide Squad? That'd be awesome. Quote:

Throw in a couple of Playmates action figure mutants (Groundchuck, Dirtbag, Tokka, Rahzar?) and kill them in spectacular ways. It'd be amazing.

But man, what a wild ride that was! Weaver and Bates really f#cking get these characters, man. They manage to pack so much humor into B&R's dialogue yet also gift us with terrifying spreads like the one of B&R getting up, covered in blood. 10/10 would deff recommend

I wonder if Wingnut/Screwloose are even still alive after that first issue? Those time patrol people said they put them back in the lab that would burn down. Maybe this was just a one-and-done appearance for them.
It's not like every mutant has to be a recurring character. |

They were dead; but they still had to be "gone" in a lab accident to fix the timeline.

They've pretty much exhausted through the old mutant characters but a few (like Rahzar/Tokka, etc), hell even the Punk Frogs got a minor cameo/debut in the Ghostbusters mini. |

I think the right balance is what these Bebop and Rocksteady mini-series have done: we all enjoy seeing these (somewhat) obscure characters show up, and the more recognizable ones (like Wingnut and Screwloose) get a little more playtime than the mutant anglerfish and seahorse (I don't even remember their names... they never made it past concept art, the poor sushi bastards).

I think we need a new mini-series about the first days of the EPF. A story about Bishop's father, Ravenwood's experiment and other dark secrets.
It should be something like "Secret History of the Foot Clan". When we get a new story and in parallel there is a story from the past. Spoiler:

In Wingnut & Screwloose's defense... Every Suicide Squad needs its Harley Quinn! Plus, I like the Deadpool 2 idea of assembling a team and quickly having it dwindle down to 2-3 essential characters. They could just be a cameo like all the others. More of an Anti-Mutanimals crew, really.

You think Wingnut and Screwloose should be added to the Mutant Suicide Squad for... for their sex appeal???

Dr. Shelvin is bit of an odd character, because he's kinda just there without any real quirks. I wonder what they'll do with him, he doesn't seem evil.

Maybe Slash will kill him. It's Shelvin's fault the Mutanimals and TMNT couldn't rescue him back in Desperate Measures...

Ravenwood in spider form reminds me of Baxter 2003 - all the forms he has changed from one episode to another. It would be a great adaptation with this new character I personally feel not beeing an interesting one.
The mini didn't blow my mind but was very enjoyable indeed. Waiting for Karai's Anti-Mutanimals. And Mutants of Mayem (thaught of it as an amazing new title for the next series as I've read it first time) in 2020! |

The third Bebop & Rocksteady mini just has to be called Mutants of Mayhem now!
And I think I'm gonna start referring to Karai's posse as the Footanimals (not all of them are mutants, but all of them are Foot and all of them are animals). |
