Thundercats - General Discussion (and some Silverhawks too, whynot)
- Thread starter Confuzor
- Start date
So I rewatched the episode last night where Tigra is stuck in a cave that's rapi aging him and he needs Cheeyara to save him. It made me realize two things.
1. How did Panthro get there the same time as Cheetara? They both seemed more or less the same distance away when they saw the Swords call.
2. Isn't the Sword of Omens a rather inefficient calling beacon? Any time Lion'O uses it, every Thundercat able to answer the call will answer the call regardless of how important what they're doing is. Everyone gets there and it's like, "Thanks for coming, but I really only needed Cheetara." Panthro would be like, "Okay, fine. Now you can go all the way back and get the fuel that powers our defense system."

No. The description of the image says her name is Calica
So, in the dynamics of the Thundercats team, are the thunderkittens supposed to be "house cats", even though they'll grow up to be "big cat" species Thundercats?
They are wildcats. It is my school system's mascot.
I guess Calica is a housecat. But Thundercats never really paid much attention to scale of real animals. I am not sure exactly what Slythe and Monkian are, but jackals and vultures are small next to most of the animals represented by the Thundercats. If they care about scale, Liono, Tygra, and Bengali would be a lot bigger than Panthro, Cheetah, Pumyra, and Lynxo.
Are we sure it wasn't called Challange of the Stopbots? I heard they were on the rocks at one point in time!!
Thundercats #2 is out!
It's good! I think I might even like this one a little better than the first issue, if I'm being honest. It gives us a better idea of what the ongoing plot for this first arc will be. I'll just say...we do get to meet that new Thundercat they were teasing.
So, I think if you enjoyed the first issue, you'll probably enjoy this one too.

It does feel like they're doing the 2011 series thing of setting up WilyKit with Lion-O a little. She's...very understanding of his feelings about getting prematurely aged up. Feels like they're planting seeds for a future relationship, maybe.
They're still teasing Tigra and Cheetara having a little relationship, too. It's mostly body language this issue, but it's there. Cheetara's flirting with him, and he doesn't seem to notice. The lucky *grumble*.
And, yeah, I like Calica's design. But...she's gonna pull a heel turn. She's pretty clearly being set up as part of Mumm-Ra's scheme. Given how much they've hyped her up online, I'm pretty sure she's a real character, though. I don't think this is Mumm-Ra pretending to be a Thundercat, again, like with Pumm-Ra.
