I always thought he was funny too with his southern accent, and always talking about cajon food, gumbo, jumbaliah, or something like that.

Leatherhead was always my favorite! Even loved his accent! His lines were great! Just wish they had keep him as big as he was in his first appearance, Seemed like he shrunk some height wise later.

Leatherhead was awesome, and the accent with his constant garrowntee promise made him just funnier!

He was absolutely hilarous. The Cajun speech and mannerisms was a nice touch.

That's interesting, I would have never known.
Yeah '87 Leatherhead is awesome, but I agree that he does look a bit smaller than he did in his first episode. Then again so do Bebop and Rocksteady...

When I was younger, I always though Leatherhead was from France since he had that accent. Now I realize that he was Cajun. He was great though.

Jim Cummings was the power house behind Cajun Leatherhead. He wouldn't have been half as cool with out him voicing him.

Any character Jim Cummings has voiced wouldn't be as cool without him
