Casey may be number 20 to them, but to me he'll always be...yeah they probably got it right...roll film.

20 - Casey Jones’ Golf Bag of goodies – Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

Casey Jones’ arsenal consists of just about any sports implement big enough to hit someone with and be carried around in a golf bag. A disgruntled former hockey player, Jones takes to the streets swinging hockey sticks, golf clubs, baseball bats and more, to take out his frustration on the criminal element. While there’s nothing technically special about the weapons at his disposal, it’s definitely a fanboy pleaser, not to mention super-cool, to see this guy with no special skills defeating evil with tools you could most likely find in your own garage or attic. Casey Jones, you’re an inspiration to us all.

Well, if it's the first one mentioned, it gets people thinking of the TMNT right off the bat (heh, pun not intended). Any publicity is good publicity, right?

Nice to see a TMNT character recognized with all the other great comic book characters.

Way to go, Casey.

*DrSpengler* · 03-05-2007, 10:24 PM

That's awesome.

Thanks to the stuff like the 2k3 toon and the new movie, Casey's becoming just as well-known to the general public as the TMNT themselves.

Which is great, because personally, Casey is my favorite character.

the description of why his weapons are awesome is on the ticket.

I agree with everything on that list. Though, the Bowel Disrupter should be number 1. I wish I had that weapon in middle school.

*VaughnMichael* · 03-06-2007, 12:39 AM

nice to bad he's not an "disgruntled former hockey player" as they said.

In the first movie I think he did.

Come to think of it, aside from his Season 3 appearances in the original toon, does he make anymore appearances later on? I'm sure he does but for some reason, I can't think of any. Night of the Rogues, I think but anything else?

In the first movie:

While on the swing in front of the farmhouse with April, watching the sunrise, April says:

"So you actually played professionally?"

And Casey answers:

"Before I got hurt...Less than a year."

They don't specify what sport.

This made me laugh, the way its worded made me think of Casey himself as a weapon! Well he was quite handy in mirage vol1 #10, where he decks the Shredder...

*Mr._Mutant_Man* · 03-09-2007, 02:33 PM

I think I would have put the Green Lantern ring as #1. I mean, sure the hammer is from a thunder god, but the ability to make almost anything you imagine is pretty darn cool.

DarK_FooT_SoldieR · 03-09-2007, 02:51 PM

I think that's a pretty good list,

my only remark is he should be number 19 instead of 20.

As much as I like The Joker from the Batman series,

I think Casey's golfbag of sports equiment is more threatning then the Jokers acid squirting flower.

That can only get you at close range, and to my knowlege, wouldn't it only have one good squirt?

*gobo* · 03-09-2007, 05:39 PM

Casey Jones is my melee weapon of choice. ^_^

But, yeah. Casey Jones appeared in both "NIGHT OF THE ROGUES" and "CYBER-TURTLES". If he was any others, I didn't find them in my quick look through the Molly Bode's guide on the official site. She tells what characters are in each ep, but I didn't have enough time to go through all 192 eps.

Don't overlook cricket! It was with a cricket paddle (a wicket) that he took down Raph with in the first movie. Plus, Casey knew the terminology: "six runs"!
