Best Version of Baxter Stockman? - Page 2

*snake* · 01-06-2015, 10:58 PM

I'm sure the writers had a blast reducing Baxter to pieces in 2k3.

*shuriken* · 01-06-2015, 11:36 PM

^^I'm sure they did.
2k3 by miles. He had his own motivations, he had a unique character arc and eventually redeemed himself (albeit as a tentacle brain thing some hundred years later but whatevs). Insane in the Membrane alone proves how much of a twisted and tragic character he was at that point, both his mind and body were wasting away, after having such promise and potential.
The OT and nick Baxters are ok. The best thing about BaxterFly from the OT is his deteriorating mind and the best thing from Nick Baxter is his fly fro.

I'm going with 2k3 for the best cartoon Stockman. He kept losing body parts throughout the series, and his story throughout the series definitely made him more interesting than either of the other two versions. Insane in the membrane was a great episode as well. I've heard it was banned from reruns after being aired the first time for some reason.

*BabyTurtles* · 01-07-2015, 01:00 AM

I liked 2012 before he was mutated.

I just found him kinda adorkable XD

overall though...I guess I'd pick 2k3. His life sucked

Eurydemus · 01-07-2015, 02:26 AM

Oh, 2K3 by far. He was actually menacing even if he always ended up being undone by his own hubris. I also like the fact 4Kids Stockman became something of a sympathetic character throughout the series who found redemption at the end.

OT Fly Baxter for me cause that's the most legendary version.

I'm going to say first it'd be Mirage Baxter, than 4Kids, and then IDW.

Def 4kids. He managed to be a resilient menace throughout the series.

Overall, IDW wins because he is ideally how I've always envisioned Baxter: a self-serving mad genius.

METALHEAD · 01-07-2015, 03:00 PM

2012 baxter. his design is based off his mirage self and i find that awesome.

*Icebot* · 01-07-2015, 03:59 PM

My favorite Baxter is from the 4kids series.

Oh he crossed him more than twice.

It was never shown in the first place.

The 2012 Baxter. He's more comical.

100% This...despite reducing it by 33.333%.

*CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy* · 01-11-2015, 11:11 PM

I've never liked Fly Baxter. Cyborg Baxter all the way... but IDW is my favorite version. 41 issues and a bunch of mini-series, and he's still 100% human!!!

*Cipher* · 01-11-2015, 11:58 PM

Yo, IDW's is actually the best here.

Of the cartoons, 4Kids.

The Fred-Wolf version added a really effective, memorable villain to that rogues gallery, though, and I'll give that props, even if I usually forget it's even the same character as other versions.

Gunpowder · 01-12-2015, 01:38 AM

Going with 4Kids because (1) he had the better voice actor, and (2) I could actually take him seriously.

*MsMarvelDuckie* · 01-12-2015, 01:58 AM

I voted 4Kids, but to be honest, it's sort of a tie with the OT for me. I'd love a version that does BOTH. Wait- that's IDW.....
