Is Mutagen Man gone for good?

*Papenbrook* · 05-16-2016, 03:09 PM

I don't think he's coming back...

*neatoman* · 05-16-2016, 03:26 PM

No crap, he hasn't made a relevant appearance for 62 episodes.

Aaronardo · 05-16-2016, 03:26 PM

Me neither. And anyone who thinks Mutagen Man will come back has way too much faith in the new writing team.

I asked Auman and he said "Maybe!", so who knows.

*miru* · 05-16-2016, 03:50 PM

Yeah, I think he's just gonna be a prop from now on. Maybe that's for Amazing Adventures or a simple off-hand mention or background event to answer. Or...

Turtles Forever 2 has Mutagen Man as the villain.

Nasubionna · 05-16-2016, 03:58 PM

Much as I REALLY wish he'd make a reappearance besides just being a fixture in Donnie's lab, I don't have a lot of faith in the current showrunners/writers team to make this happen. I hope I'm wrong, though.

Splinter the boss · 05-16-2016, 04:13 PM

it's true the writing team has not mentioned the guy in quite a while, however I cannot say yes to the question since it would just be stupid to not wrap up his plot because it woud be great chatacter development for both Donatello and him.

*GoldMutant* · 05-16-2016, 04:38 PM

(sighs) How many times do we need to start a thread on him when it's all the same? Sorry, it's just getting frustrating but eh, talking is what I do best.

Considering the last mention of him was The Noxious Avenger, a lazy rehash of Muckman Messes Up from the Fred Wolf era with no relation to the series outside the season 3 finale barely, no. Last onscreen appearance in terms of character was Mutagen Man Unleashed, practically two seasons ago now. Barring all the cameos, theories and such, there's no way we're seeing him again. He was a character introduced at the wrong time frame and I'm not going to keep mentioning the budget and scheduling...

Unless there's a slight glance at humans vs mutants after the break, don't even bother. There's no happy ending for the goofball, let alone an ending at all. No subtlety besides Don's guilt, which is glanced over. Yeah, apathetic attitude.

*CyberCubed* · 05-16-2016, 04:41 PM

He'll probably come back toward the end of the show to undo his mutation.

*neatoman* · 05-16-2016, 05:28 PM

If I remember correctly, MM was only in the show because some writer played around with a MM toy in the staff meetings.

Is this a sarcastic comment or are you serious? Can never tell when it's online

Chaotix12345 · 05-16-2016, 05:58 PM

He'll be back once he gets out of the GS Ball.

*FredWolfLeonardo* · 05-16-2016, 07:19 PM

The upcoming humans vs mutants arc seems like a fitting way to use him after being gone for so long.

*ssjup81* · 05-17-2016, 05:08 AM

Until the series actually comes to an end, I can't say one way or the other.

~~TurFlytle~~ · 05-17-2016, 05:52 AM

He'll be back for the last 5 seconds of the series finale. then die.

*Shark_Blade* · 05-17-2016, 08:43 AM

He is dead to me lol.

As much as I like to laugh about that, I can't help but wonder if that's what the writers will actually do.

~~TMNTInsighter~~ · 05-20-2016, 07:28 PM

He shouldn't be.
If I were making a list of the top five who need to come back, he's definitely there. Not only did it focus on a fanboy-like character we MIGHT relate to (only more so if we were that dense), the sense of responsibility that characters like Don inhabit(ed), and the side-note fact that Mutagen Man usually becomes a member of the Mutanimals in whatever they show up in. These things, the latter most of all, should result in a return for him but it just hasn't happened yet.

*Hero* · 05-21-2016, 05:29 AM

I wonder where "Timothy" is.

There's another good candidate there for The Mutanimals. Like with Sir Malachai, he's another wanting to fit in somewhere. Something better to do than be a giant paperweight in a lab.
