Cheetara's excuse for their failure to follow a very straightforward task is utter bullshit and makes the Thundercats complete imbeciles, as a result. the leader of the Thundercats specifically told them to come for him after a week. Then, we find out why the Thundercats failed him.Ĭheetara's rage filled answer: 'Because you told us not to/disturb your training!' After being struck by an enraged Cheetara (who, in this series, seems to have lost her powerful telekinesis/telepathy and was reduced to being the Mutants personal sex toy - more on that later), Lion-O demanded to know why no one had come to retrieve him after a week, as he had instructed them to do. It took him a good year before he was powerful enough to overthrow the Thunderian rule and enslave Thundera as a whole). ![]() (no, Mumm-Ra didn't attack them within that first week preventing them from retrieving their leader. ![]() Well, despite the fact that Lion-O gave specific instructions for his comrades to come and get him after a week had passed, the Thundercats - for a particularly stupid reason - failed to do this, and Lion-O only emerged from the Book five years later - at Snarf's behest. Lion-O had entered the Book of Omens in order to train - within the Book, he'd be training for months while outside of the Book, only a week would have passed. People who recall the TV series will remember that time flows differently within the Book of Omens when compared to the outside world. Why are they idiots? Because the whole plot of the series could have been avoided if the Thundercats had actually did as Lion-O had asked of them. Lion-O's mission? Save his idiot friends from Mumm-Ra's evil clutches. The gist of the story - Lion-O returns from training within the Book of Omens, only to find Thundera conquered by Mumm-Ra and his former group are now enslaved to him. This comic, however, failed on all counts (spoilers ahead - if you care). ![]() I read this tripe many years ago, when it was first released back in 2003.Īs long as writers remain faithful to the source material (specifically, keeping the character's personalities the same), I have no problem with updating a series, changing a character's look or giving a classic a darker story line (case in point - I adored the Thundercats 2011 revival cartoon).
