From an in-universe perspective, why did Crognard end the way it did?

Crognard, Yes I saw him get eating, I heard the crunching noises, but you have to remember, THIS IS A 1980's cartoon. We saw Crognard get impale, and perhaps off screen, burn, axe, cut up, and what ever else his enemies thrown at him. A little thing like getting eating is not going to kill a 1980's cartoon hero.

But Mikey checked the net to see if there were more eps and found out that that was indeed the final ep of the series.
