Even before Campbell took the reins Man Ray was militant-minded and replaced Slash as Hob's confidant. He and Herman were gung-ho pro-mutants. Despite the character leaning that way while Slash, Sally Pride, Mondo Gecko, and Mutagen Man were not. He was in the know about what Hob had planned with the mutagen bomb. I am not defending Campbell on the characterization as it does seem a step too far for him, however his portrayal had hints. Betraying Hob and making Furry Town go into Civil War giving Baxter Stockman reason to send in government agents to collect experiments? I did not believe that would be his direction.
