Sorry to reanimate an old thread but I've asked myself this a million times.. I love the discussion, so I had to reply...
I like the entire plot of the creation of Serpentor in the cartoon. Dixon was the best at storytelling, but unfortunately character development wasn't his cup of tea (Which made him an excellent episode writer). The journey of bringing the cobra emperor to life was much better than the minor excerpts (including the storm shadow death / DNA extraction) by Marvel. One person who can breathe life into a character and make you love him is Larry Hama. So Marvel's portrayal of Serpentor's personality is by far better in the comics. I do like the fact that he's more of an ego-maniacal madman, but with the DNA of history's greatest leaders- he would also be an intelligent abbot, emotional and crafty as well.... so they would've been better meshing the two ideas together for the cartoon. >Then maybe DIC wouldn't have had to take over and ruin it...... Thanks for reading! |

For some reason serpentor just stands out a bit to much as fantasy. The comic origin while still of course fantasy, has a much more hard science feeling. The cartoon sort of makes it seem more frankenstine. It is more epic, ill give it that for sure. However after he pops out he just kinda replaces cc and starts screaming and retreating all over again. "Retreat!!, this I command!" Really dude. Your like ten of the greatest strategists ever, hold your ground bro.
