Would you want to see Man-Ray in the show?

IDW introduced Man Ray in their mutanimals group, and Mikey imagined the Archie version in his head in one episode.

IDW Man Ray:



Archie Man Ray:



Or the original cartoon version, "Ray."

No objection so long as he's got a better design than in IDW.

I would love to see an Archie version of Man Ray appear in the Nick cartoon. It would be great to eventually see him alongside Leatherhead, Slash, etc. in this version of The Mighty Mutanimals.

Yeah, the IDW design isn't to my liking at all. I prefer the Archie/Toyline Ray Fillet

I wouldn't be surprise if he shows up on the show, but keep in mind, he may not be like the one in the comics, this series takes liberties on characters, most often its characters who are in name only, and its Mikey who is always naming the mutants.

Is the IDW Ray really that bad design wise? I don't see a problem with it.

Not a fan of the clothes and goggles. I like Ray with cartoonish proportions

Come to think of it its surprising Man Ray has never shown up. They seem to be going through the Playmates toy list and bringing back all notable and even obscure mutants (like Mutagen Man, Muckman, Wyrm, etc), but Man Ray has never been chosen.

Being an aquatic mutant he could also get into underwater battles with Fishface.

Yeah, that & the location of his "horn-shaped cephalic fins" (as Wikipedia puts it) is really "off" to me. They should be on top of his head! They're as iconic to him as Batman's "ears" are, IMO. A defining visual trait.

Yeah there is. It's what a ray looks like.

I didn't post it for the blood.

When someone asks whey a design is bad, it helps to go to the source.

There are hundreds of thousands of other pictures out there of them, ones that better depict their overall image, too.

You don't throw up a shot of his autopsy when someone needs a refresher on Robin Williams' appearance.

What's up your ass today?

It's hardly an autopsy. not like the time Andrew posted a ****ing video of an actual suicide.

There's a little blood. Not many clear shots in my 30 second google ****ing search.

Today? Today? Hi, I'm Powder, nice to meet you.

Suicide is a choice. Getting killed by the carelessness of seaman, on the other hand...

Either way, it's not a pleasant sight fit for this site.

Here, here's a cat walking on two legs.



My olive branch.

- If you're going to do something with Man-ray, (wasn't it once Ray-fillet?) you need to do more than just give him some weird jowls hanging off his head.

We don't need more characters in this show, it already has trouble focusing on the ones it already have because of all the monsters of the week episodes.

They focus on the main cast plenty well. Shredder and his main henchmen get plenty of focus, as does Karai and the Mutanimals.

The mutant of the weeks are not intended to be developed characters, that's why most of them are mindless monsters that don't even speak.
