That would be the Pulverizer, to be honest.

Great episode without the Mutant of the Week.

I hope Casey Jones appears more, and hope to see the Turtle farm in Northampton, Massachusetts soon. But I don't want him to hang out with the turtles in every episode.

If the episode deals with gang wars in town and such, Casey is a grat character. But if the TMNT fight extraterrestrials, leave him at home.

I also liked seing Irma. Season 2 of the 1987 show has Irma brefirending the turtles as a creeping subplot.

Yeah, I was expecting him to have just a black line going across both eyes, I think that would've been a lot cooler.

I think the whole face paint thing is to protect his identity. Is it not?

Well what's the point of his mask then? Imagine if Batman had elaborate black and white makeup underneath his mask, just weird.

*BubblyShell22* · 02-05-2014, 09:00 AM

I honestly love Casey's facepaint as it gives him more of an aura of mystery. Just so cool. And I don't think he's annoying either. This Casey is awesome!

Kas · 02-05-2014, 09:57 AM

Well, I think Casey's facepaint is to make his face, combined with the mask, look more like a skull. You know, just as Big Daddy does in the first Kick-ass movie when he's putting on his costume:

Tough to protect your identity when saying "Casey Jones shoots" in front of the Purple Dragons.

lol! I wonder if that's going to come back and bite him in the butt? Thanks for pointing that out! They'll probably show up at his high school some time. Although Casey seems crazy enough to intentionally do something like that.

Pft. And how many Casey Jones' are there in the city? It's a rather common name! I don't think he has anything to worry about.

Heck I just checked the white pages and there's 47 people with that name in the NYC area!

*Zulithe* · 02-05-2014, 01:01 PM

47 is a lot, sure, but it's nowhere near common enough. they know a lot about his height, weight, and general age (by his voice). They could narrow it down without much effort.

It's a seriously bad choice on his part to proclaim who he is to people he's beating up. But at least it sounds cool when he does it

*BubblyShell22* · 02-05-2014, 02:35 PM

Yeah, but remember that he's the reckless type, so it fits that he'd do something like that. He's awesome though.

Don't some wrestlers refer to themselves in 3rd person like that? Haven't watched it in ages but I was taken back to my WWF/WCW days. He also did the 3rd person thing at least once in the 2k3 series, I think. Oh and in the OT. Just a Caseyism, I guess. haha So there are 47 Caseys in the NYC area? I'd like to round them all up just so I can yell,"Hey Casey!," and hear a tun of,"What," in response.

*Shark_Blade* · 02-05-2014, 04:28 PM

Is it me or the voice actors are really great in this episode? I'm particularly fond of Mikey's.

The time when he hollered "Yoohoo" whilst bumping into Donnie and scattering popcorn all over him. It's a nice tone of voice. And when he started countdown on Raph's temper: "Ten, nine, eight, SEVVAANN.."

Yeah the counting bit got my bh and I laughing. That'd tick anyone off!

xChri5x · 02-05-2014, 10:04 PM

Finally got around to seeing this and wow... I am floored by the quality of this episode (and the last few recent ones). i really hope they keep this up. Ciro Nieli is a treasure and nick needs to do everything they can to keep him on board.

I just got around to watching this episode and I gotta say that it lived up to my expectations. I love Casey's fighting choreography, the animators have managed to translate his hockey goon-ness into a fluent fighting style that almost seems realistic. Plus I dig anything with Watchmen quotes.

Ah, that's why Casey's monologue sounds familiar. He's practically Rorschach!
