Favorite Mondo Gecko design from 4 series?
What's your favorite Mondo Gecko design:
Original cartoon:  Archie comics:  IDW:  Nick:  I think my favorite is IDW's, which feels like a good mixture of the classic design updated. Last edited by CyberCubed; 05-10-2015 at 02:58 PM. Reason: w |

I like the Archie, Fred Wolf, and IDW design, Really hard to pick which one.
the thing is, Fred Wolf and IDW have similar origins, Except for Archie. Though I personally like the Archie version better, Cause at least he had a Girlfriend, Who stayed with him even after the Mutation. It's too bad he gets killed off iwhen he joined the Mutanimals. |

The original Playmates toy is my favorite. Neither the OT or Archie books have him looking exactly like that, so I view it as another design. Fresh offa Ryan Brown's paper, no less.

I went with the IDW design, Cause he looked the most humanoid looking in that.

You know I just realized Nick's Mondo is the only one not wearing a yellow shirt. That's why he seems so different, that and no hair. The others were all dressed in yellow.

Definitely IDW. The design is great and I love how closely he resembles day geckos. Even his hands and eyebrows are blue :3
Dat emo hair xD |

Maybe I should elaborate on my choice, when I said "Ben Bates' rendition, I meant only his rendition. All the other IDW artists draw him with hair, which annoys the hell out of me, Ben Bates fixes that by making spines instead which fits a lizard better.
Literally other design rubs me the wrong way, the toy/FW/Archie look seemed overdesigned to me, like Ryan Brown got a little too creative one day. Concept art of the Nick design seemed fine but when it finalised, I don't know why but for some reason it didn't seem to work that well, maybe it's just that I thoguht he was annoying in general that made me dislike the design (at least there's no hair on him though).

Mondo has always been a personal favorite of mine, but I really love his look in IDW. It sort of takes the best of all the previous versions and mixes them together. Nick's looked okay, but a little TOO "gecko" for me- that, and he reminds me too much of the Geico one, which is a little annoying.
