Batmitey, Thank you so much for posting this fond childhood memory!! I loved this show and wish it had lasted a whole lot more than it did. Well, no one ever will take away these five classic Swamp thing adventures thanks to you, Batmitey!!!
i love how Arcane used like a bit of sap from the xingu tree before tossing the bottle on the ground...."i want every last drop" well shoulda thought of that before you trashed a whole bottle
My theory; the Un-Men's mutation was more extreme (e.g. Skinman turning into a bat-thing), which made it too unstable so it eventually wears off. Arcane's mutation was comparatively less extreme (he's still basically human-shaped), so it's more stable and so doesn't wear off.
At least he's not the hackneyed "Mystic Native American Warrior" stereotype that Spirit on GI Joe was. Weird metaphors like "The weasel has farted in the den of the bear" Or Apache Chief. John Thunder from Centurions was pretty good too. And Bravestarr was pretty decent, I liked that they and Tomahawk were played fairly straightforward
I say my favorite character is tomahawk! because indians are always a smart fighter & hunter & warrior. + Im half cherokee & I go by my indian heritage, and I got the toy figure
