Do you Think They will Make Casey Jones a teenager in the new show?

*Donatello19* · 08-01-2012, 01:18 PM

With April Being a Teenager in this new show, do you think Casey will be a teenager too? I think he will, and Him And April will probably go to the same school and he sees her going in the sewers one day and finds out about the turtles. I just don't know how he would fight crime in a hockey mask as a teen though. The criminals would probably just laugh at him

So what do you guys think?

Moonlight1102 · 08-01-2012, 01:19 PM

Seems like the likely choice. There's no need for any "Creepy Old Man Casey Jones".

*TurtleTitan97* · 08-01-2012, 01:20 PM

It was confirmed awhile back that Casey would be 18 on the show.

*CyberCubed* · 08-01-2012, 01:35 PM

Yeah, with April being 16, Casey being 18 isn't much of an age gap.

If they start dating its not unusual, I remember when I was in High School tons of 16 year old girls would date 18 year old guys.

I heard April would be the eyes and ears for the turtles topside. I could imagine him rescuing her when the turtles aren't around as an introduction. I don't think hockey mask would be "laughable" and seeing some 18 year old who prolly is an athlete with a chip on his shoulder brandashing blunt objects with much fury would be desturbing to the minor bad guys (this is assuming NICK doesn't allow the baddies to have real guns). As far as Casey meeting the green machines? We will likely see a rehash of the raphael/caset situation as usual (which I think is kewl) I could see the turtles meeting up with casey and april and having a "wait, you know him? Wait you know her?" Moment. Just my 2 cents.

Curiously, Casey is about five years younger than April in the Mirage comics. Or, at least so it said in Strangeness, in which Casey was listed as twenty-two and April as twenty-seven.

A couple years ago when they were initially promoting the show they said that Casey would be a teen and would more than likely pop up in season 2

At the recent comic con one of the writers said he asked Kevin Eastman about what makes Casey Jones so special to the Turtles mythos, and he apparently gave him an answer to make him understand perfectly.

No doubt Casey will appear in Season 2.

That he had to ask Kevin that at all shouldn't exactly be comforting.

I doubt he was asking because he didn't know. I took it more as he was asking for one of the original creator's personal opinion on it, rather than an answer per say. 'Straight from the horse's mouth' as they say.

*CyberCubed* · 08-02-2012, 11:31 PM

They also confirmed a long time ago you would see graffiti of Casey Jones name on the walls or something like that.

Of course Nick promoting a character using graffiti is mind boggling in itself.

What the fug do you mean? Your thought process never ceases to confuse me.

They're not "promoting" anything, they're just teasing the fans by acknowledging that Casey is out there tagging walls (something he did in the Mirage books).

*BubblyShell22* · 08-03-2012, 07:44 AM

It would make sense for Casey to be younger since April will be a teenager.

The only Mirage book I can think of him Tagging anything in is Tales Vol. 1 Issue 4. Even then he only talks about it. Is there another issue where he is tagging?

I ask because it seems odd that a vigilante would go out and break the law. Yes its a stupid law, its not something that's going to hurt anybody but it still strikes me as odd. I mean even Bart Simpson kept his dual identities of Bartman and El Barto separate. Why would a vigilante essentially advertise?

On ign.com, they have confirmed that Casey Jones will be in the second season,and will be an older teen.

Thank you for sharing that article.

thelouisguy · 08-06-2012, 11:55 AM

If/when he shows up in season 2, I would love it is Elias Koteas was the voice actor. Some teenagers have older sounding voices; it works for me.

*Mr.Turtle* · 08-07-2012, 07:47 PM

^ i wish they give raph a older sounding voice 2...

Utromshredderhater · 08-09-2012, 01:07 PM

I would like him NOT to get involved with April

the 2k3 Casey basically got neutered

Also give hint the personality of OT Casey
