Casey Jones Thread

[Drose18]

Lets talk about what we think about Casey Jones in this show!
My thoughts:
I don't understand how people are saying this casey jones looks promising because he looks like complete horse ****.

Sorry to communicate via meme but English had temporarily failed me.

[Bossa Nova]

I guess I just like gap-toothed horsey looking dudes, because I think Casey's design is totally boss. I admit, I would have liked him with longer hair since that's what I tend to think of when I imagine Casey, but the short hair doesn't bother me. To be perfectly honest, of all the humans we've seen on this entire show, he has my favorite design by far.

[TurtleTitan97]

I personally like Casey's new design. And I love that they got Josh Peck to voice him, can't wait to see his take on Jones.

[BubblyShell22]

I'm not bothered by Casey's looks at all. I can't wait to see him in action and to see where his story ends up. Don't judge a book by its cover, guys. Wait and see how this plays out first.

[Electric]

thats not his mask, just facepaint, which i do think is strange. The mask they show in the new intro for this season i think makes him look like a badass.

yeah the bandanna again is weird, but oh well. i mean, april has worn wrist wraps before she became a kunoichi, and i think thats weirder.

And april obviously isnt bother by tooth gaps, considering both he and donnie have them

[ironman29758]

I'm interested in how Casey storyline plays out but the face paint I'm kind of iffy on it. I've seen a few heroes in comics/tv with make up in some form in the last few years. I didn't picture Josh Peck as Casey but I'll watch a few episodes before I make a concrete judgment.

[NinjaMan]

I love this version of Casey. His hockey mask with hood up looks like the Grim Reaper.

[ninja-zero]

He's okay I guess. At least he's a teenager not older anyway.

- He'll protect April from the mutants
- Fight the turtles as his enemies at first and learns from April that they were the ones who mutated her father and avenges her against them.
- Later on become good friends with them and Splinter in joining the fight against the Krang and Shredder.

[Leofan26]

I liked his 2003 look better but what they are going to do with the character sounds interesting. Casey was one of my favorite characters, I'm looking forward to him 8)

[snake]

I like his new design. Hopefuly he shows up soon.

[joefsas]

Yeah cus he knocked out his teeth just to get a girl....WTF!!!

[Jester]

Just realized....Drake gets Spider-Man...with Greg Cipes, Josh gets Casey Jones...with Greg Cipes.

Seems like Josh wins. Can't wait to see him in action...unlike some people who are just critique his model. *coff*Op*coff*

[CowabungaMikey]

I HATE this Casey Jones so far. I already didn't really like him in the 2007 movie, but this is far worse. I'm really dissapointed.

[raph27]

He looks a bit young. Like 9 or 10 years old. But when he puts his mask on eventually, all's good.

[Zulithe]

Love the design and the voice seems fine. Can't comment much beyond that yet, but I've loved all the other changes Nick brought to TMNT so I'm not at all worried.

[DONATELLO DUZMACHINES]

Honestly ive never really cared for any design of Casey until I seen this one. I love the entire look especially the skull hockey mask and skull face paint, seems very psycho in my opinion, almost like war paint used to scare his victims. I love that he looks like a homemade vigilante, instead some sweats a cut off and a plain hockey mask. Just my opinion, but its my favorite Casey Jones design.

[discordiatookie]

I think the new design is pretty cool. I love Casey to bits, but he's normally a not too bright 20-something who loves to crack skulls and who's best friends are teenagers in most versions of TMNT. This at least is something fresh. I'm all for it.

I will say I do prefer his iconic hockey mask, rather than the generic 'Jason' style mask that I believe he'll have in this, but that's just a small gripe. Everything else is looking good to me!

[victory_angel]

Aside from the trailer, we haven't really seen Casey in action.

I have my various opinions as to what I've seen so far. But I can't say I like or hate his character by looks alone.

Reserve your judgement for when he does appear in the show. He may actually have an interesting interpretation.

Such for example Casey has a fear of rats in this in incarnation, so when he see's Splinter yeah he's going to freak because like a nightmare come true.

And he will have a different relation to each of the Turtles.

Leo-unknown at this time. It's possible he have a friendly relationship towards Casey. But it also could play out that he finds Casey too loose cannon to really consider as an actual friend.

Donnie: Frienemys/Rivals. Agrees that Casey is an okay guy to have around and is useful in a pinch. But when it comes to April, wishes Casey would just take a one way trip to the moon.

Raph: Good Friends-at least assuming so since Casey and Raph have been buds in other incarnations.

Mikey: Automatically friends with Casey.

Same here. I like the missing teeth, spiked armor, psycho facepaint - it all just screams crazy badass to me, and that's how I want to see him. :D

[DonatelloNinja82]

I think he looks awesome! I cannot wait to see him on this show!

[Guitar_Raph]

Just realized....Drake gets Spider-Man...with Greg Cipes, Josh gets Casey Jones...with Greg Cipes.
All that's left to complete the monopoly, Greg Cipes with Miranda Cosgrove!

Take it from the pic he didn't get his motorcycle license yet.

[Papenbrook]

In my opinion, I am not looking forward to Casey Jones ... at all. I'm REALLY worried that Casey will somehow cause more "problems" within the series.

[BabyTurtles]

how? :-?

what kinda problems?

[Shark_Blade]

More problems?

Wat.

[Donatello19]

More problems?

Wat.

I assume he's talking about problems in addition to the love triangle with Don and April...?

[BabyTurtles]

I assume he's talking about problems in addition to the love triangle with Don and April...?

well..it wasn't getting any better.

at least when Casey comes we can have a jealous Don for about maybe 5 episodes then we won't have the love triangle anymore...that's something to maybe look forward to?

[zodiac brave]

i like the idea of the triangle if for no other reason than to give donnie a catalyst to assert himself more and become more confident. i like the idea that these are the "youngest" the turtles have ever behaved (or at least the most "real-life"-like), and this could be a really good character arc for him.

as for casey, i think this is great! the angle they seem to be going with seems perfect for the tone of the show and as a stand-alone design, i think it's really the coolest it's ever been. i mean, honestly, the 1990 and 2k7 flicks aside, casey's never really had a lot of interesting details to his costumes. this is a good look, imo!

Donnie's already more assertive in my opinion.

he's very opinionated in this version.

[Shark_Blade]

2k3/OT situation

Leo: Hurry up Donnie, disable that machine.
Don: I'm working as fast as I can guys. D:


2k12 situation

Leo: Hurry up Donnie, disable that machine.
Don: BE QUIET!! :x


I love 2k12 Donnie. :lol: Ain't nobody walk over the brains of the team.

[Papenbrook]

No, you got it all wrong.


I'm worried that Casey Jones might mess up the dynamic of the team when he shows up. Not only will Donnie be distracted by him, but Raph might be really distracted as well. While Casey and Raph might form a good bond, I think Raph's character development might be hindered. I don't want Raph to be too reliant on Casey.

I don't see that happening. If anything, Casey's appearing might improve Raph's character development cause of the dynamic they'll have. Give Casey a chance, I trust that the writers for this show know what they're doing.

they say that all of the turtles will have some type of relationship with Casey.

I'm sure it'll be fun to watch~ don't worry :)

[Whatswiththeheadbands?]

I hope the relationship is similar to the 2003 series. That was pretty much spot on.

On another topic, how do you think Mutagen Man will affect Casey in any way?

[NinjaMan]

All right. I just wanted to apologize.

On another topic, how do you think Mutagen Man will affect Casey in any way?

Welcome to the boards! I think after seeing Mutagen Man going after April it will make Casey want to become a hero. I know Ciro said a while back Mutagen Man is key to Casey's origin.

[Papenbrook]

:) Thank you.

Does that mean Casey will somehow learn about how to be a hero from Mutagen Man? If that is the case, then I am really confused.

P.S.- I don't know how to transfer my comment to the next page. I'm sorry if I messed up.

[TurtleTitan97]

:) Thank you.

I think it means his first encounter with Timothy is somehow gonna drive Casey to go down the path to becoming the vigilante we know and love. Y'know, like how the deaths of Bruce Wayne's parents drive him to become Batman.

[Papenbrook]

:( Does that mean Mutagen Man will harm Casey's loved ones in order for Casey to develop?

[TurtleTitan97]

:( Does that mean Mutagen Man will harm Casey's loved ones in order for Casey to develop?

What? No. That was just an example. All we know is that, like Ciro said, Mutagen Man's key to Casey's origin.

[zodiac brave]

Donnie's already more assertive in my opinion.

he's very opinionated in this version.

well, i meant more assertive and confident about the april thing, specifically.

:D

[Papenbrook]

Will Casey Jones be one of those emo characters in goth stories?

I don't like Casey Jones. He will probably be annoying with his confidence. He will probably be stupid too, considering that he's failing in school.

This version of Casey Jones will forever be a stain and a failure to the TMNT universe.

EDIT: Okay. I was really over dramatic about Casey's character. I am sorry if I offended anyone.

This version of Casey Jones will forever be a stain and a failure to the TMNT universe. So don't try to convince me he's not.

How can you assume this when you haven't even SEEN Him in the show. You need legitimate reasons to hate him, otherwise, you're just trolling.

[Papenbrook]

I am not trying to troll. I am determining Casey Jones's character based on what Ciro said.

Here are my reasons for disliking Casey's character:

-Ciro confirmed that Casey will be competing with Donnie for April's affection. That tells me that Casey's character is going to create more conflict within this season. The turtles already have enough conflict now.

-Ciro also confirmed that Mutagen Man is the key to Casey's development. In my opinion, only ONE character needs development from another character. Donnie's development already depends on Mutagen Man.

-This show is unpredictable. Recent episodes have proven that. Casey might turn out to be a horrible character.

I am really sorry if I made you angry. I really do. However, you need to understand that not everyone will view a character in the same view.

[ObiWanFan4life]

I am not trying to troll. I am determining Casey Jones's character based on what Ciro said.

Still, you haven't seen him in the show yet, try saving any accusations until you do.

[Papenbrook]

ObiWanFan4life, you probably hate me now. I am really sorry. I wasn't trying to troll. I know my comment was wrong.

[ObiWanFan4life]

He looks like a bad fighter but a good character. I take back the bad things i said.

Goongulas back!

[shihe]

Maybe I'm easy to please, or maybe I get used to stuff quickly, but I love this Casey Jones.

Still no Koteas Jones, but I have a feeling I'll like him better than 2k3 Casey.

Will be anxiously looking forward to this episode. :D

[lango7]

I like the younger take on Casey. It makes sense since April is younger and Casey can have time to develop his skills. I'm interested to see where the show will go this season.

[BabyTurtles]

Can't wait to see more of him already! :D

and how he interacts with the turtles! *_* so much hyyyyppee

[CyberCubed]

I don't like that he's missing teeth, but other than that it looks like he will be a good character.

But those teeth are going to take getting used to.

[Shark_Blade]

Yeah his missing teeth... it makes me wonder how the other person gonna kiss him without touching his gum.. :tconfuse:

But forget that boring detail, I love everything on that snippet! April looks hardcore! And I believe Casey will gradually become crazy badass too in phases. Can't wait to see his ghost masks! :D

[TurtleTitan97]

The missing teeth makes perfect sense if you think about it. Casey's suppose to be a hockey player, right? When's the last you saw a hockey player with perfect teeth?

[Shark_Blade]

When's the last you saw a hockey player with perfect teeth?

Holy... I didn't believe it at first. But then I googled.. :o

What? It's normal for their teeth to be like that? I don't even...

Nick really did their homework on this one.

[NinjaMan]

Ciro is a huge hockey fan

[saber16]

Oh no! They designed him with teeth missing, that's not like the original version! Because, its a known fact Casey Jones is best known for his perfect teeth!

Honestly, I really like this take on him because he's so different... but so familiar at the same time. I don't know why, but I really like the shot of him looking for a weapon in the trash, "Give me something!" I mean, it's a really small thing, but it breaths life in to him and shows his more creative side (anything is a weapon, after all). In fact, one of my favorite complaints someone made was that he alters his mask with a little spray-paint to make it look like a skull- RUINING THE CHARACT-

:roll:

[shihe]

Yeah his missing teeth... it makes me wonder how the other person gonna kiss him without touching his gum.. :tconfuse:


Actually, that's, oddly enough, the first thing I thought when I saw those missing teeth in the cutscene with April. XD

But yeah, I got used to Don's missing tooth quickly (April getting the romantic interest of teethless heroes is a joke waiting to happen)

[BubblyShell22]

Awesome clip. Thanks for sharing. I really like this take on Casey and can't wait to see the episode on Saturday.

[Electric]

i know im jumping the gun here, but i like this casey more than any other.

joshs voice for him, fits

liked the whole small speech about its evil and awesome "i got this sweetheart" i dont know why but that seemed perfect for his character without making him seem too much like a complete over confident jerk

goongala

his personality just fits

[ShreddHedd]

This Casey seems like he's going to be great. I remember at the SDCC panel, Ciro said that he was basically the same Casey Jones we know and love, just a few years back. And that short clip definitely proved it to me. Felt a lot like Elias Koteas' version of Casey, with the bravado and the nicknames for April. Plus the design is super sweet. Love the missing teeth, it's hilarious and he's still badass with it. I also like the other small details they've given him, like the bike (no motorcycle license just yet), the spray paint splatters on his shirt (so we know he's the one that tagged the streets with the CJ on the walls) and just the way he talks, Josh Peck is doing a fine job so far.

I know what you mean, I think his voice fits in the other shows, but here it just seems... natural. And you're not alone, I'm actually liking this version here more than the other two shows, mainly because of how off the wall this version is. I like the new look (yeah, even those stupid missing teeth XD), his personality, the actor - he just sticks out and I love it!

I was pretty skeptical when I first saw Casey's redesign, and the idea of making him some dumb high school failure didn't really appeal. Just watched that new clip of him, and I've gotta say, a lot of my doubts are gone. I still don't like his design, but they seem to have nailed his character.

I just can't wait to see how he interacts with Raph...

I know what you mean. I feel like this is going to be my favorite interpretation of the character outside of his appearance in mirage. I never really liked the 2k3 series and one of the things I really didn't like was their treatment of Casey, and he was barley in the old toon, so everything thing I've seen so far about this Casey I've absolutely loved. The look,the voice they all fit in my opinion. Can't wait to see him in action. I seen an interview on In were Ciro said that there going to take three episodes to develop him into the Casey Jones we all know. That's great to hear that it's not just this instant transformation into street vigilante.

[Megchan]

I keep getting this Kevin Levin vibe from this version of Casey. And even though I've heard Josh Peck as Casey, I keep hearing Greg Cipes as him in my head. Guess it doesn't help that Kevin Levin's girlfriend, Gwen, has red hair. :I

I agree, and tbh the design is now growing on me. I never actually liked Casey as a Kid, but when I watched the 2003 show, I actually did a 180 on the character, and from the clip we saw, he kinda reminds me a little of the 2k3 version.

[Papenbrook]

Okay. After I watched "Mutagen Man Unleashed", my opinion of Casey Jones has changed. I now think Casey Jones is an okay character. Not enough to make me worship him, but still, his characterization could have been worse.☆

[BubblyShell22]

I love this version of Casey and can't wait to see more of him.

[TurtleTitan97]

Really like how Casey was handled in the new episode. Really looking forward to seeing more of him.:tsmile:

[NinjaMan]

Agreed!
My favorite version yet.

[CrazySquirrel]

I feel like I have enjoyed most of the changes so far on this show... Caseys character is pretty cool but I prefer him with longer hair and a little bigger but I guess that's just the updated design of the new show...

[Luckyday]

All the more reason why I love this show's voice cast. Nearly everyone is using their natural voice, and which in my opinion, gives them so much acting range to work within their characters instead of using a generic cartoon voice thats is only capable to express one single emotion. It just makes them feel believable.

[DonatelloNinja82]

I loved this new Casey! I think Josh Peck's voice fits him. It's youthful enough, yet has a little bit of an edge. His cockiness is just right, and GOONGALA was just priceless!

[Papenbrook]

Casey Jones is an okay character, but I don't like it when people worship him like a god. He is not a religion, people. Just a character.

Yah...cannot say I'm seeing that either...

[CowabungaMikey]

I do. Everyone on Facebook is worshipping him, making things like #BabyCasey and stuff a thing. Ugh, it makes me crazy.

[Papenbrook]

What I mean about Casey Jones is that I don't like people worshipping him. I don't like it when Casey fans disregard EVERY SINGLE FLAW to view him as a Gary Stu. I don't like them making fanfics about marrying Casey. I don't like them having frequent fan wars against Donnie just because he is a rival to Casey. It just gets ridiculous.

[BubblyShell22]

Yeah, but we're just saying we like this version of him. We know he has flaws and none of us are hating on him or even worshipping him like some god. We just like his character. Nothing wrong with that.

[Discogod]

Right, after seeing the episode I can say I'm 95% sold on this version of Casey. Still hate how he looks, but I hated the design of movie Casey at first too, and that certainly grew on me.

It's suppose to be spray paint.

Ew, I'd hate to see what your throw up looks like if that's honestly what you think that looks like :ohwell: I can see it being spray paint, or just an actual design on the jacket itself.

[Donatello19]

Yellow spots all over jacket. What, did somebody throw up on him?

First of all, it's spray paint, and second, there aren't JUST yellow dots, there are lots of different colors.

[Powder]

Is there an official source that says it's spraypaint? It looks just like bleach to me.

[BabyTurtles]

I'm pretty sure it's spray paint.....we did see some graffiti from him :)

Yeah his design sheet confirms it's spray paint.

[Papenbrook]

I wonder what the 3rd episode with the appearance of Casey Jones will be like?

Will we finally learn about his origin/backstory? How will he truly become the anti-hero, as seen in previous versions?

I guess we will have to find out soon.◎

sorry to bring up an old thread, but i just rewatched caseys trailer and remembered the last line. "You aint seen the last of me turtle"

with how casey is in this show, i kinda was thinking that hed just instantly get along with raph, im assuming. but it seems like that wont be the case.

im wondering how theyre going to meet and what each turtle as well as april is going to think

with how casey is in this show, i kinda was thinking that hed just instantly get along with raph, im assuming. but it seems like that wont be the case.

im wondering how theyre going to meet and what each turtle as well as april is going to think

I think he's yelling at Donnie, not Raph.

However from what I've been able to ascertain from the voice cast interviews is Mikey is going to have the easiest relationship with Casey. He has a real lovable personality so I can see him really getting along with Casey.

Splinter at first will be like "What are you doing here?" which will be followed by "Maybe it will be okay for your to stay for dinner."
Casey will have a fear of rats in this incarnation so his first encounter with Splinter should be an interesting experience.

Donnie is going to have a frenemies relationship with Casey. They both will admit the other is a good guy to know and that they have their uses. But when it comes to April, they wish the other would take a one way trip to the moon.

Raph and Leo it's unknown.

My guess Raph might find Casey to be a good guy who he can pal around with.

Leo I think might agree that Casey is okay...but might be a little to loose cannon for his tastes.

i guess im just wondering if their first encounter is with or without april. thats kinda the deciding factor. with her, he may back down, without her, he has no clue their friends with her, so

as far as relationships, i wonder if casey and raph will be friends off the bat. or if it takes time.

and with leo, hes really the one thats up in the air. i could see him being fine with him, but i could also see him disliking him at first, maybe thinking his attitudes worse than raphs.

My guess is being Slash is out there in NYC now, there's probably going to be an arc where there are reports that a vicious mutant turtle on the loose, Donnie will be out in the city making sure that April is safe. Casey will find Donnie and will try and save the day by stopping Donnie who he falsely believes is the turtle on the loose, of course Donnie wouldn't want to fight Casey because he knows of Casey's friendship with April and will retreat from him.

Second time around, he'll find Raph and Slash around the same time span and the rest will be history.

I don't know about the report of mutant turtles on the lose considering Slash may know better then to just let himself be deliberately seen.

But I can think maybe he does try to prove he can be a true warrior without anyone else to hinder him. Also it gets the Turtles to come out of hiding.

April tells the Turtles there are rumors going around about a giant turtle attacking people like the Purple Dragons.

Everyone looks at Raph and Raph says it wasn't him, but he knows that it's more then likely Slash. The group Splits in two, Leo and Donatello taking one sighting area while Raph and Mikey take the other. April also accompanies Donnie and Leo. The three of them notice that Slash is in the area and prepare themselves for an offensive. April steps away to inform Raph and Mikey about Slash.

At that moment Casey appears and says that he heard rumors on the street about their being a giant Turtle running around, he didn't think there would be two of them. Donnie and Leo have to defend themselves however April steps in between them and tells Casey that these turtles are her friends.

Slash sees this and decides to use it to his advantage as he finds that photo of Donnie pushing April in the park Swing and tells Casey that Donatello has feelings for April and even shows him the photo. Casey becomes angry at the thought of a "freaky mutant Turtle" is trying to take his girl so when he sees Donatello with April later on, Casey approaches and he's like "Stand aside Red, I have a bone to pick with your so called Turtle friend."

Slash then shows up and grabs April knowing that Donnie would be distracted so long as April was in danger. However Casey also realizes April is in danger and decides to fight off Slash with Donnie, but says that this isn't the last they would see of each other.

[JH24]

Looking forward to see Casey develop in this series. I'm kinda hoping it will take some time for Casey/the turtles to see each other as friends.


I'd like seeing Casey being distrusting of the turtles for some time and preferring to do things on his own.


I agree Mikey will probably be easiest to become friends with.
Raph probably likes the way Casey gets things done.
Donatello, we've received hints about how he feels about Casey.

And as other posters already said Leo is likely the unpredictable element here. Leo probably appreciates Casey's contribution to the team but may also be worried that he seems like a loose cannon and about the influence he may have on his brothers/family.

[Walkabout]

I have only seen the first few episodes of season 1 plus a couple of later ones (no cable/pay tv) but going on everything else the Nick team has done Im sure this Casey will be just fine.

[liugeaux]

I'm digging this Casey, but the missing front teeth is a bit much. It makes perfect sense because of hockey, but to think a teenage girl would be attracted to a dude missing at least 4 teeth might be pushing it on plausibility.

[BubblyShell22]

Well, she isn't attracted to him yet and only sees him as a friend. However, I don't think missing teeth are a bad thing really. I can see someone being attracted to someone with missing teeth because it's essentially not about the looks but about the person themselves. At least that's how I judge a relationship.

She could be like a sister to him instead of a girlfriend.

[Luckyday]

I almost wouldn't mind seeing those two together from the way they had set it up in the beginning. At least they're not bickering at each other like crazy unlike the 2k3 series.

i could see that. and i think itd go well. with this april i really dont want her with donnie, as donne gets too focused on her, and dont want her with casey, as i think well lose individual screen time for each, plus then donnie is depressed. a friend role is perfect for them

agreed. as long as they take their time with it, and dont push them into a relationship immediatly (id prefer not even in season 2) then i wouldnt mind.
im still not a fan of casey and april together though, as in the past, once theyre dating, they tend to only be shown together, and be less involved with the turtles. since i love both new incarnations of these characters, id rather see them interacting with the turtles equal to or more than each other.

so my hope is that she stays single

Yes, I agree. Have them be friends first and then if you want to put them in a relationship at all, just have it happen gradually.

[victory_angel]

Yes, I agree. Have them be friends first and then if you want to put them in a relationship at all, just have it happen gradually.

From what I've interpreted is both Donnie and Casey are attracted to April. But April only likes them in terms of friend/brother figures not really boyfriend status as of yet.

so my hope is that she stays singleI'm not a fan of April/Casey either, plus I think friendship stuff gets all too woefully underdeveloped in favor of shipping two characters together. April will likely not be interested in Donnie in 'that way,' but she'll be interested in being his friend. That's fine. But will they be brave enough to do the same thing with Casey? It seems as if mere or deep friendship is more of a 'nontraditional' thing to have female characters do with male characters in these kinds of settings, usually it's the default setting to 'put them into a relationship.' Pretty much I wonder: Do they know how to write a female character where she is just friends with a male character?

[LeotheLateBloomer]

April/Casey will happen. It's always been part of the turtles mythos (sans the OT). Just like Cyclopes/Jean Grey.

Anyway, I really dig Casey in this version. I think Josh Peck does a good job. I believe once Casey meets the Turtles, we will know more about Casey's history. Maybe on how the Purple Dragons took away Casey's father or mother. We could possibly see an appearance from Hun. I think the Purple Dragons could use some more screen time because I think the Kraang are starting to become over-used. I would like to see more on the ruthless gangsters.

As far as relationships go, I think Don will have mixed feelings with Casey due to the whole April thing. Maybe we can see a possible adaption of that one issue where I believe Casey was upset with Don for not having anything in common with him and started to push Don's buttons which causes him to fight him (can't remember the issue). Raph will probably have the same best buddy thing they have like in other versions. Of course I can see Casey having more fights with Raph than Donnie. Mike will probably look up to Casey or just see him as a cool dude. I'm sure he'd be the next person to want to hang out with him. Leo will probably see him as vital to the team as April is. He could possibly be his sparring partner.

I'm really eager to see what the writers will do with Casey. I wouldn't mind if we even get any episodes that focus on Casey and the Turtles without April, like 2k3's "Fallen Angel" and "I, Monster".

I remember that in one of the Comic Con videos there's a very brief note about "an awesome Raph/Casey fight comming up"

Me having never liked Casey, really enjoy this version, and hope he gets screen time alone with them. Just like April. I feel if they are together we will always see them together and lose individual interaction. Hope she just friend zones them both. Then they can still have their rivalry while April is above It.

I remember that in one of the Comic Con videos there's a very brief note about "an awesome Raph/Casey fight comming up"

Can't wait:tgrin: that's what makes me so anxious to see more Casey is to see how he meets them and how it goes. (Who he meets first? Why? Does he attack them? Help them? Does April know? Is she there? Do they both try and save April?) and also how he interacts with them. I know Mikey hell get along with, Donnie freinemies, raph buddy's. But how is Leo going to act? And how do they get to these relationships. I need to know!

[kelligrafie]

You've clearly never seen the UK version of Jeremy Kyle... :lol: You wouldn't believe how only having 4 teeth would benefit your sex life.

[beavercartoon]

Casey makes me feel slightly less insecure about my own teeth, which are horrible. Not quite "Lisa needs braces" horrible, but close enough. I don't think it's cute necessarily, but it's at least somewhat realistic that a hockey player or kid who gets in alot of fights would have damaged his teeth over the years.

Anyway I don't think a slight change to his character design is automatically a bad thing or would prevent any potential romance because he's (supposedly) not attractive enough. He's a teenage boy, they aren't all cute. Heck, Josh Peck himself used to be chubby and not very appealing before he lost weight and gained muscle, so perhaps Casey is just in an awkward stage.

[Metalwolf]

April/Casey will happen. It's always been part of the turtles mythos (sans the OT). Just like Cyclopes/Jean Grey.

But does there have to be a Casey/April romance in this one? So far they've looked to have their own original takes on the characters and what happens to them, and I'd hate to have there be a A/C thing just because it's 'tradition.' The OT managed to not have one and Casey still turned out decent without needing a romance.

[ticktack]

You detail on what it will be like with Casey/turtles relationships and I also would like to be brought up on what was/is or you thought, brought idea would have been April's relationship with them each at the same time.

That's because the OT was a different category from the other incarnations.

ticktack: I'm afraid I don't understand what you're trying to say.

[Vivi]

It's not just a gap, he's missing four uppers at least...shouldn't he have a mild speech impediment? And the name Casey Jones would not be an easy thing for him to say. Get some flippers, Case. :p

[Papenbrook]

For Casey's design, I think the outcome depends on who draws him. In some fan art I saw, there were plenty of artists who drew the latest version of Casey very well.

[NinjaMan]

Holy cow I just a Casey Jones trailer on Nick! He looks awesome in action! He was taking about Purple Dragons and then him and Raph starting fighting. He even makes his way to the Turtles Lair!

Nice. I love that they added roller skates to him (that might not work well with adult Casey). :D
