Does Kronos remind anyone else of the riddler?

*turtlefanforever* · 05-06-2014, 02:07 AM

Season 9 of the original series episode 'split-second' introduces a new villain obsessed with clocks and time names Kronos or kranos not entirely sure cause they always say his name different each time, but I get a riddler-esch vibe from him. Anyone else feel the same way?

I'd argue Clock king...but OK.

Fun fact: David Wise wrote The Clock King episode in B:TAS, and the Kronos episode in Season 9 heavily re-uses the same scenes with the trains colliding on the wrong tracks or the Turtles trapped in the bank vault.

It was very Jim Carrey Riddler I agree, I've always thought that.

Definitely a Clock King/Riddler feel. The best of the Dregg era episodes, and that's saying a lot.

The fact that he found their lair and knew everything about them was cool too!!

How did he find out that Splinter was Hamato Yoshi? That was never explained.

My thoughts exactly! Glad someone's with me. I really liked that episode too. Wanted to see more of him.

i just like the fact that the reason he hates the turtles is because the turtles left him in a clock tower after catching him and he want insane and vowed revenge of them. i seem to remember thinking that this big parts of the episode reminded me of Die Hard: With a Vengeance. but ya it does have a riddler vibe as well.

Well David Wise also wrote the Riddler's debut episode in B:TAS too.
