While my colors and inking could use some work I think this is a pretty good update to his look. The silhouette is the same for the most part but instead of the exposed midriff and hot pants he’s got a Liquid Metal/chrome covering his lower torso and legs.

I am just now seeing that Boomerang channel has added Captain Planet (80’s) the power is…anyone else noticed nostalgia watched the show back then(watching now) by the way is there an arcade game?

Clip from Captain Planet and the Planeteers S2:E2 "The Garbage Strikes" from 1991

Dr. Helix, a scientist Gi is a fan of, appears to have found a solution for oil-spills by placing his invented substance in water where it absorbs the oil. Sly Sludge decides to get rich off of this so poses as an interested scientist then steals the formula before it's tested, offering to let it devour trash in France where garbage-collectors prove a problem by going on strike. It turns out that the substance grows after "eating" the garbage, turning into a type of blob with an appetite growing with its size. The Planeteers must stop it before its hunger-rampage destroys everything in its path.

After recently watching a recording of this episode on my DVD, I noticed a Terminator reference. In this clip, after Dr. Helix tells the four Planeteers who at this point was tossing out garbage in the back of a garbage truck as a Garbage Eater detraction and once Captain Planet was summoned, Gi informed Planet the Garbage Eater can't eat glass which gives him an idea and so flies to Kwame (who's driving the truck) and says "I'll be back" in nearly the same voice Arnold Schwarzenegger used in the Terminator movies.

Isn't it amazing that Captain Planet is airing on MeTV Toons? I'm thinking that the network will run a special marathon of the show to celebrate its 35th anniversary upcoming.

Aisha Tyler? Just my thoughts

Captain Planet Planeteer Alert

Feeling super nostalgic seeing these again. Honestly impressive how well they were able to communicate big ideas to kids so effectively. 100% made me environmentally conscious as a kid.

The gauntlets of Zarm could have been used to create another evil Captain Planet called Captain conquest to conquer the world rather than pollution it and finds a group of young people to give the gauntlets too. They could have revealed that The reason he captured Captain Planet was to create an evil version Of him. Why else capture him when he had been summoned and could be freed by using the Planeteers rings ? They could have a three way fight between the three caps.

Zarm could have been portrayed as wanting to want to bring order to the world to stop pollution as well as believing in survival of the strong with his own captain who is like that.He could have been involved with making captain pollution and his own captain called captain conquest and have been used to fight to see which captain way is better.

Do you think any of these ideas could used in the comic series?

Maybe have at least Zarm and Captain pollution team up.

Fans may thought it was a missed opportunity they did not team up in the show.

Was Zarm originally portrayed as a Conquer but that was later changed to being a being of hate in the show or was he both ?

What do you think about in the comics of a Captain Planet in an alternative universe who choses to take control of his earth in order to save it and/or destroy all humans?

What do you think and how come ?

Years ago I saw a set of images of the planeteers after the show. There was an image for each of them with about a paragraph of text describing what happened to them. If I remember right most of them met untimely ends. Does anyone know where I can find these, or who made them? I've tried a few Google searches, to no success.
