Then he is not Hun. They might as well have named him "Akira."

No, I don't think so. Looks like it will be black, but what difference does it make? He looks Asian which makes sense if he's going to be head of the Purple Dragon which is a Chinese gang. With that name, I'd assume his character is supposed to be Chinese too.

I can't help but wonder how old Hun is supposed to be for this incarnation. He doesn't look to be a teen.
If he's based on Bruce Lee, he will probably look like this:

If he doesn't have blonde hair then I call fowl.

Blonde hair or not, he's still Hun. Get over it.

That's a foolish thing to say. Guess they're trying to make him more realistic looking. A blonde Asian (naturally) is very unlikely. Black and dark brown is more common. Light brown as well...maybe. Natural blondes, no.

Besides, Akira is a Japanese name. The Purple Dragon are Chinese. Last I looked Chinese =/= Japanese.

So, like I've asked before...are you sure you're turning 30? You complain about the most insignificant things like a kid. A young one.

To everyone else, please excuse me for my snarkiness. I usually keep it to myself.

Every revamp of a character has looked (and often acted) very different from previous incarnations so far. I don't know why Hun would be an exception.

Not if he doesn't have blonde hair. It would be as if Bebop didn't have a purple mohawk.

I think I found a problem.
It's not the Apritello, it's the Casey/April/Donnie stuff that people don't like. I personally don't mind April being confused and unsure of herself, but I don't like it myself when, one minute she's yelling at Donnie, telling him she never wants to see him again, then runs off to hang out with Casey, and then when she gets into trouble with Karai, she calls Donnie for help, he saves her, and then, she forgets about him and runs to check on Casey. Later on, she then gets affectionate towards Donnie again, hugging him, kissing on him, and then, she gets all flirty with Casey again. I personally don't like how she seems to be using Casey as her way out when Donnie makes her get cold feet. That in itself is selfish. At the end of season 2 finale, it was confusing as f#$%^ck to see her all of a sudden, gushing over Casey, just then to have season 3 premier showing she's all of a sudden giving him the cold shoulder. And now, we have that precarious kiss either on the mouth, or within the mouthy region, either way, that is in no way, intended to be a "friendly" kiss, no matter how you slice and dice it.

OK, the last pic, everyone has this disgusted/unsure look on their face, except for Donnie's sly smile! What the hell gives?

What the flippity flap frakkity fart is up with you wanting him to be named Akira? Out of the 99,000 alternative names you could suggest, it's the only one you keep using. And it's not even the right ethnicity!

Frickin' racist scum.

I think they should have made Hun into a woman, to really piss people off. She could be like the Russian chick from Kick Ass 2!

I'm just baffled why they keep making new characters and slap an old name on them, and say, "Here's an old favorite coming back!"

Kraang Prime IS the real Krang so I have no concerns about that. Ciro is lucky he got Bebop right. As for Rocksteady at least he's still white and has blonde hair, and I'm hoping the mutation "changes his vocal cords" to remove the Russian accent.

But Hun....he doesn't resemble his 4kids counterpart at all. Hun also appeared in both Mirage and IDW, and in both series he looks similar.

What other characters did they do this with besides Hun?

At least they kept the same spelling for Hun, so we know it IS the same character. Kraang Prime did not even retain the same name as Krang, and yet you are sooo sure they're the same character.

Probably because he means nothing to me? If I don't care about something, I forget about it.

Baffling is just the word in his "word a week" calendar. Before it was "disgusting". Before that it was "bias". He hasn't been using any of them correctly, though.
