So what did we take away from this series?

Is this idea of a... Utrom civil war (as such) something that will stick in future incarnations? Or will the future versions return to the idea of Kraang being an individual character?


Personally I quite like this idea that the Utrom are now a doomed race because of this insidious takeover by one of their own.
It mirrors a lot of other scifi Hive/collective minds (such as Star Treks Borg, or Who's Cybermen) who have traditionally focused their story horror on the assimilation of Humans. Its quite interesting to have a glimpse of that kind of fate occurring to another race entirely in the way its developed in the Nick show.

I'd rather Krang be an individual Utrom criminal (with the other Utrom's mostly being good) than part of a collective hive-mind, or existing on his own without the Utroms, or as leader of a mostly evil race of Utroms. Just seems like the most simple and non-intrusive way to have Krang and Utroms in the same show/comic IMO.
