Krang/Baxter Stockman

I do find it interesting that alot of people mistake Krang for the Utroms. Yes, Krang does look a bit like those aliens and uses the same means of transport, but he was really just the brain that was removed from the body of a war criminal.

I do find it strange that no one has compaired him to Baxter Stockman, a man who's brain was removed from his body and implanted into a giant cyborg. When you really think about it both characters are disembodied brains...

and both provide Shredder with the latest technology, and Baxter was actually once inside an utrom suit, and both have an ego the size of the technodrome

Well at least they both have something in common. I do agree with this comparison of that: old toon krang and baxter lost their bodies. They never said how krang did, they just had krang say he lost it when they banished him to this miserable mudball. This is one similar to the old and new toon. I never thought of this comparson though, but good one (comparison).

well I figured that out a while ago, but so what...

what always bugged me was the Krang, a brain, is able to survive without lungs, a heart.... and has eyes... he should also never be exposed to UV-rays, they'd fry him in no time (probably why he didn't liek the heat in the berserko episode) since he has no skin.

but then again, it's only a cartoon...

No. And I'm sure many people will argue this point to you. But I won't.

I like them both. Krang had a special quality that the Utroms couldn't match. But the Utroms are cool in their own way.

No, Krang 'looked like' an Utrom, but he wasn't one. The Utrom named Krang was simply a nod towards the old series, and fans of it.

Not only that, keep in mind that Krang was an alien so he was probably able to adapt better to the situation.
